:T Congratulations EA!! And welcome to Lily :hello:

As you are all commenting on how quick it was when did EA go into labour? I have read back a bit but couldn't see it mentioned?

she posted this morning saying she had pains that woke her around 5am and was having mummy cuddles by lunchtime.

---

I've been getting some really horrid pains the last couple of days, only once or twice in a day, but my bump goes tighter and it's like having a really bad stitch. No idea if it's BH or ligaments but it bloody hurts when it gets me when I'm out and about! The things they don't tell you about until you're actually pregnant....!

I'm not sure what the different stages of labour are:o But I know she was 6cm at 8:30am....I think that makes for a quick labour????:o:)

Esio i get that when out and about in the later stages they can be really uncomfortable so i only go places where i know i can easily sit down for a minute or two until they pass :-)

Woke up at 5am with pains, 6cm by 8.30am and a baby by lunch - good effort!!!

Esio I'd say those are definitely BHs!

CONFUZZLED she started having pains at 5am was 6cm by 8:30 and was cuddling lilly by about 1pm i think it was so 8hrs in total that is seriously quick for a first one and such a big baby too :-)

I wish I was later stages though, only 25 weeks! Not fancying being restricted in my movements for the next 15 weeks either. (do ignore the grumblings - I'm grumpy today)

Just take your pace a little slower esio i found that helped alot and stop as soon as you feel it coming on and wait for it to pass i found that better than just trying to walk through it which could make them alot stronger and last longer :-)

I will be having an elective c-section though so there wont be any undue popping from my side (especially for you Confuzzled) I have cerebral palsy so my hips are lopsided. As a result of the C, Im sure they'll knock a few days off so it'll probably be before the 29th after all-just dont know yet as Ive not really thought to ask the consultant.

Elective sections are usually done 2 weeks early..

All this talk of big babys is making me apprehensive! DS was 8Ib 13 and seconds are meant to be bigger! I had to be cut with DS and tore inside cos his head was so big! really dont want a repeat performance, the loss of blood made me sick it was the worst part!

Awww try not to worry hun (difficult I know), I was cut and still tore nastily with the first (8lb 2) one, had a zillion stitches and took ages to heal. However somehow got away with just a smallish tear with the huge babe that they didn't even stitch and healed really quickly. She was much easier to get out too so bigger doesn't have to mean worse, honest.
