Haven't been on for a bit- its been a bit hectic.

I am going in to be induced tomorrow morning, which is exciting but also a bit scary. Had a sweep yesterday, consultant was very pleased and said it was all favourable and then had pain and lost plug.. so... hopefully everything is fine. Its exciting though- I should be a Mummy by Monday morning!!!

I then have to stay for 3 days for observation but then I will be home with our little one

Sorry if I am jumping my place in the queue

Kindof go in with an open mind do try the tens machine they really do help some women. you may find you wont need anything but that and gas and air or you could end up going the whole hog and having an epidural you just never know until your going through it.

With the last one i managed entirely with tens and gas and air until the last 20 minutes then it just got to much for me and i begged for pethadine they gave it me but wish they hadnt as it didnt take effect until after bubs had come out mind you it meant he slept for a good long time after the birth so i could get my head down too i suppose there is a silver lining to everything :-)

Yeah thats what I am hoping to do, just have a total open mind and see how I fair, everyone is different.

I just feel like I am competing with other people which sucks (mainly MIL who didnt even use G&A, she is the type of person to never let you forget that she didnt use it and I did (might))

Ohhh Maureen dont tell me about asda, I just cant help myself buying baby clothes lol

GISI thanks for that, I wont be pumping then

Gymfiend - We have snow again its not layinng at the minute, and I hope it doesnt, I dont like being snowed in!!! Especially not when beany could technically come whenever lol

MMM nice what curry paste do you use? I am having trouble finding Blue Dragon and can only get Asda and it just doesnt have the kick, my green was lush though (depsite having no kick lol)

Evening all,
I think I give up trying to sleep at night, it's just so uncomfy and I don't even have much of a bump yet! Tried sleeping with a pillow between my legs but I turn over too much so it just gets in the way. I just crave sleeping on my back! arrghhhh.
Just watching that My fat gypsy wedding on 40d and can't believe the dresses, how insane.
Easy labour vibes to you KT and I hope things get moving for you too Nikkit.

Well it was either a very easy birth or she just likes pain. Mind you a little healthy competition may be good for you when your in pain I know if someone tells me i cant do it it makes me all the more determined.

Try singing whilst having a contraction you will think now that you may look like a complete div doing that but it does work suprisingly well. Midwife looked at me gone out as i kept singing the rainbow theme tune it was the only thing i could remember the words to other than the i like big butts song and i didnt that would be appropriate lol ;-)

Back from a looong day out

Me and Sis went to council and they have said she has to go into a hostel but as they have no spaces at the moment she is in a B&B until there is a space for her. And they are paying for it all for the time being as she is under 18.
The B&B she is staying at doesn't actually do breakfast so we joked it was just a 'B' :rotfl:

But we went shoppings Went to poundland for just some hand gel, and spent £10. Got to the till and i didn't have my card so had to put it on my credit card :eek: OH text me to say he had it though, so that was lucky

Got some PJ's from Primark for hospital, a PJ set reduced to £2 and a PJ top reduced to £1

And then my sis bought me a maternity T-Shirt saying 'I love my bump' from H&M (for £12.99 :eek: ) the shocked face cause im due in 16days! :rotfl:

Kindof - We had chinese last night Had chicken curry, fried rice and some chips, it was lovely hehe.

Good luck KT, and labour vibes for Nikkit!
