    Emma, congrats on being brave.

    You can add yourself. Just quote the last full list, delete all the quote !![.... etc at the beginning and end, and add yourself in.

    If you haven't done it by tonight, I'll do it for you.

    Due today!

    But nothing happening yet :(

    Can anyone recommend their tried, tested and successful methods of naturally inducing labour? (Please bear in mind that sex is not an option at present as DH is at work!)

    Feeling humongous and just want to get this baby out now!

    Help!!!

    Oh dear, I have never reached my due date, so have no idea how it feels to go over, but every minute must feel like a day.

    Can't offer any advise, other than hubby must surely be home from work now. Remind him, it is a no no for 6 weeks afterwards !!

    I am 15 & 4 and the last few days I am sure I have felt the baby move. It is flutters low down in my belly, especially if I am lying still in bed at night. Somebody else I know is 16 & 5 with her second and has told me it is too early to feel the baby and it must be something else. Is this right? I am sure it is the baby because it is certainly not wind and just like everybody has described! Thanks!!

    Hi there! It does sound like you are feeling your baby moving :j I was about 22 weeks before I felt my first moving, but everyone is different!! Just wait till you are getting jabbed in the ribs. Then you'll know about it!
    Proud to be dealing with my debts

    Yep, that's your baby. Everyone's different as to when they first feel movements. Enjoy!

    I felt my first flutterings a week ago at 17 wks. Once when I was in the bath and then later in bed. It felt just as has been described, but they were just one-offs :(. I was sure it was baby, but apparently once it starts you feel it every day, so it must've been something else. Or maybe baby was appreciating the fact that daddy was away for the night and it had me all to itself :D.

    I'm starting to doubt the pregnancy again! Last scan was two months ago, last saw midwife/heard heartbeat a month ago. Next scan not till 18th and it will be another month until I see any health professional... Ho-hum... I thought I was growing a bump, but have lost it again...

    When we last went to see the consultant, he had a handheld heartbeat listening device. It was very cool.

    He held the microphone to my wife's belly and we heard the heartbeats on a speaker attached to the end of the mircrophone cord. Obviously, we've been looking on the internet ever since to try and find one at a decent price! Like this... http://www.hi-baby.co.uk/acatalog/Dopplers.html
