    Dream you get sample sizes of baby bath, powder, shampoo, oil, lotion, a bar of soap and a small pack of wipes, if you get the purple version of the box you get the same but in full size :-)

    Fantasy families think i would like Ma & Pa larkin.

    Cant believe im up at this ungodly hr of the morning why does the insomnia kick in when you most need your sleep :-(

    Well it looks like something is happening, think I'm queue jumping. Had pains on Friday but they disappeared, been feeling sickly, shivery, severe back pain and on off irregular pains but I am trying to slow things down by laying down as I don't want to have to get ds and dh up for a hospital dash quite yet. Just been reading the news, apparently babies born today still qualify for the full child trust fund, I thought it stopped at midnight last night!!! How very MSE !!! ( if it happens today ) Had 2 hours sleep all night and I'm wrecked but can't seem to sleep.
    Busy mum of 3, so if my posts don't make sense or ask a silly question be patient:rotfl:

    smooth labour vibes MLSL!

    xmas -
    hope you managed some sleep in the end.

    Well I tried to go back in the big bed last night as it's so long since DH and I have shared - lasted 30 minutes, mainly with me lying there trying to sleep, but I am finding the bed too firm, and then just as I finally dropped off DH got up to the loo and said I was snoring...so ended up in the spare room again...of course then i was wide awake! I do wonder if we'll ever manage to sleep in the same bed again! :(

    I've been finding my bed too firm as well! My hips have really hurt every time I turned over.

    Oh and I had a horrible dream :( where I was at a vets and she was trying to get me to paint the windows blue (with poster paint?!) so my cat could be PTS?!

    Anyway I woke up at that point really upset :( Still haven't seen the cat yet she's out but I'll be much happier when I do!

    Hope it all goes OK for you littlesisterlola :) :T

    Hello all!

    I didn't make it to my induction on Saturday in the end :) After having no signs whatsoever my waters broke at 10.45pm Friday night followed by instant contractions coming 3/4 minutes apart. Baby Hazel Evie arrived 3 hours and 57 minutes later after the most intense labour I could of imagined. Managed it on gas and air alone though so I am very proud of myself but the shock of such a short first labour was rather traumatising. Maybe my raspberry leaf capsules did play a part after all ;)
    We both came home the same day and she weighed 7lb 11oz which was a surprise as she looks so tiny!

    Well done Hazel! It's so nice if they finally decide to come by themselves when you expect to have to have an induction, isn't it!

    And huge congratulations ymakesmile, I bet she's beautiful.
