Good luck to sarah and Hngry for scans today.

Tigtag - don't you think the birth programs are all good mornign well is claires due date today so she has came to have her baby. Clair just pop into that room along there and put on a gown and we will get your epidural inseted in jut a moment. I sit there and think !!!!!! its her EDD and she is being induced and getting an epidural before they do anything. Then it moves on to you seeing a woman stuck on her back in a bed with various tubes/lines in her she loots totally out of it, and the narrator saying well its been 5 hours now and Claire is only 3cms dilated so we will shortly be taking her to theater for a c-section.

My mind just screams NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you interfeared with the whole pregnancy birth thing by inducung on edd for no reason other than it was the due date. you then gave an epi before anything then after 5 hours you are surprised she is only 3cms and exhausted. Inductions have their place, DD2 was an induction and with my issues this pregnancy, previous quick births and history of heamorrage I am considering requesting induction this time but if you are being induced get upright, walk, bounce on a ball get that baby head on yoour cervix to actually do something and try get the cx going without the drip. With the best will in the world giving an epi then starting sytocin drip is not going to do a great deal in a short period of time.

Its how they all seem isnt it? xx

Hello, may I join you please? Have been lurking and randomly barging in for the last few weeks, had scan today at 13 + 6, baby due 24th March. Number 3 (must be bonkers).

Oh we are the same day GFH not that that says much as I was induced 15 days over with my 1st, I'm praying for slightly early this time the extra fortnight is a killer

With my first I had a "big leak" and thought my waters had gone I rang and was told quite patronisingly "if you have to ask then they haven't, there would be alot of water not just a big leak, don't come in" Well 4 days later when I was induced they discovered they had already gone (so I was right) so that was another reason for them to keep us in after the birth (as it's dangerous for the baby to spend days inside with no water).
If you think they've gone pop into the labour ward a midwife will have a quick look.

Hi all

Can I please be put on the list :j

Baby no. 5 is due on 5th April 2011.

thanks Princess, phoned and she said put a pad on and phone back in an hour/90 mins. She reckons probably the waters behind baby's head. friend said avoid internal if poss as ups the infection risk...

i wonder if what i've been feeling all day are mild contractions!! I can suddenly magically walk aorund now too
