I'm having a DFW baby!!

Snaggles

Lol Bunny, so I need to hope for numerous toilet trips today do I?

I've just done the school run and apparently I caused much excitement among the other Mums yesterday by not dropping DS off and picking him up (hubby did it - he was off work anyway as he had a funeral to go to). They were most disappointed to see me today, bump still intact.

Oh and I was sooooo happy this morning because DS has been invited to a party, his first one this year (this is a bit of a breakthrough as he has some difficulties maintaining friendships due to his adhd). And he also tells me he has a girlfriend, and yesterday he gave her a kiss because she asked him to!

ah isn't that sweet! And well done to your son on the party invite.

Snaggles if it get to the point of desperate you could try clary sage oil, i did, i don't know if it worked or not but the minute i found out i wasn't having my section i went straight into to town and bought some. It apprently helps to ripen the cervix. I can say i arrived at hospital at 5cms after labouring for 2 hours at home, i delivered 1 hour and 40 minutes later. So in total i laboured for 3 hours 40 minutes. Warning it stinks.:rolleyes: It says put a few drops in bath i went through a whole bottle in 5 days :rotfl:

I also had some lucozade in the fridge for when i started as apparently if your blood sugar drops so can contractions, it went wrong though i threw it all back up on my way to the car

I can't help but come on a check now, i love this sort of stuff, am i sad?

Snaggles

Chunky, 3 hours 40 minutes is good, I think I could cope with that! I can't drink lucozade because it makes my heart race but I hear jaffa cakes are good for keeping your blood sugar up??

And no you're not sad - I really appreciate anyone reading my ramblings

Hey Snaggles,
I wrote a big long reply and erased it somehow, pants.

Having a 'clear out' is often a sign that labour is going to start....Not to get you too excited!

Sorry if this is TMI:o

Snaggles

Unfortunately the feelings in the wazoo area aren't the 'clear out' kind, just a sort of uncomfortable pressure and sharp twinges that feel like she's trying to drag my bladder out with her......oh well, back to the curried pineapple....

I've heard a lot of people do without realising, but the midwife just clears it up before you realise.....:o
