    Fuzz: sounds the same as me, I had contractions that were painful but not as painful as I imagined, although when the real ones started... Oh my god... I couldn't talk, had to breathe through them and couldn't sit/ stand/ walk I just didn't know what to do with myself! Book an induction and do what I did: worked myself up over it and went naturally in the end! For me the only way of inducing labour was DTD... But as many times as you can manage... LOL. I just hope things happen for you soon, wouldn't wish going far overdue on anyone as it makes you feel miserable, my family were actually too scared to phone me in the end LOL

    haha snap!! having that for weeks hibbi!!
    I find it hard to distinguish between bubs being in an awkward position and actual tightenings:o

    LINKY to acupressure website...just tried the leg one and it got bubs wriggling...no contraction yet though!
    as for the one on youtube...I'm going with the ones with the woman in a white coat...she seems more professional than the others...not that the white coat is an indicator of her professionalism:rotfl::rotfl:

    youtube LINK 1
    LINK 2

    might be the same clip but as I'm typing one handed tough:p Emsy hope its not as drawn out for you!!! :D AT least I know this time next week I'll be being induced if I haven't gone properly on my own:j

    right I'm for more acupressure.

    ETA: another useful acupressure LINKY

    hi - a little discovery in the interest of make do and mend, have you seen these clothes plasters? The lady who designs / makes them has a lovely website.

    You iron them on to jazz up clothes and cover holes.
    Think I'm gonna get some, they are MSE right???

    Labour vibes to our imminent mummies

    Hibbi - you're on the list - you don't get away that easily :p Are you having a boy, girl, or a surprise hon?

    Princess - yay for team blue :j I have a feeling I'm carrying a boy - I can't explain it - it just feels like it is!

    Ladies (and gent) - pls can those who have had their 20 week scan let me know if you're on team blue, pink or yellow and then I can add the appropriate symbol to the list - so much nicer with a bit of colour doncha think? :D

    I looooove fireworks but haven't been to a display for 5 years because of my pooch. Even though he doesn't give 2 hoots about the fireworks (doesn't even open one eye) - I wouldn't like to leave him :(

    Hibbi, Sort of period like cramps, but since my insides got all rearranged by Peanut, I find it hard to distinguish between wind pains and other stomach pains. Does anyone else feel like this?
    Totally... I had an upset tummy the other week and all the rumblings that would usually be where the baby is currently booting me were up round my ribs somewhere... Very freaky!!

    There was a link with a small video of what happens to your insides when you're pregnant but I don't think I bookmarked it... I'll have a look and see if I can find it...

    Aren't there a lot of boys on that list!!

    eta: Here it is... http://msichicago.org/whats-here/exhibits/you/the-exhibit/your-beginning/make-room-for-baby/interactive/
    A very proud Mummy to 3 beautiful girls... I do pity my husband though, he's the one to suffer the hormones...
    Krystal is so smart and funny and wonderful I am struck dumb in awe in her presence.

  • Looks like firework night may end up being a bit of a damp squib, looking out the window. Booo.
    Metranil dreams of becoming a neon,
    You don't even take him seriously,
    How am I going to get to heaven?,
    When I'm just balanced so precariously..

    Oh you're on now Hibbi and that makes me a little bit further down (sigh of relief!) Not looking forward to the labour that is, not baby!

    Krystal DH loves that video. Thinks it's so funny how quick the baby disappears. He wonders what I'm making a fuss about.

    Well my prediction rate is still intact just back from my scan and it's a BOY! can someone update the list please.
    I'm back again in a couple of weeks as he was lying funny and she couldn't get all the measurements.
    Will add pics later if I can, I'm off to the fireworks:j

    :T I came on just to see how you and coops had got on today. Congratulations to you and your family on your Boy :D

    Just a quick post ladies to say that scan went brilliantly. Was so amazing to see the detail and little one kept waving little hands at us!! Ahhh
    Team yellow as hospital has a policy of not telling and woman was quick moving about so no glimpse to be had.
    Will write more later and get a pic up.
    Off to bed now to let us both sleep off nightshift.
    Xx

    :T Congrats to you and nice to hear the little one was waving :D
    I knew my DD was a girl from before conception, and I have a 98% record at predicting friends and relatives babies too (got 1 wrong). I have a weird concept that you "get what you deserve" and i kind of calculate the sex based on:

    1) Length of time trying/conception difficulties
    2) Mothers excitement
    3) Mothers preferred sex
    4) Sex of existing children

    Based on these factors I think I "deserve" a boy but we'll see

    1. Not long/none - it was just fun
    2. Like a kid in a candy shop
    3. She has no preference
    4. She has none, mine are all girls :o

    Hope everyone else is well :D Last time I posted there was some terrible news. I hope nothing else bad has happened in the last week or two.
