    Hi, hi, hi!!!! Well I went to see my consultant and he was just so lovely! Appreciated that's I'm stressed and struggling with SPD etc and he agreed to do my c-section at 40 weeks :j!! But the lady before me got my due date of the 28th for her c-section and it was apparently going to be a complicated one. So I was offered the 27th or 31st. I didn't really want Halloween so went for the 27th October so I'm all booked in for then :eek::eek:!!!!!!!!!!!

    Brilliant news - was thinking you should be home by now and was hoping everything went well :T :D

    Well, I *think* I'm contracting - but it's not at all what I expected so not sure what to think! Guess it could be last nights curry :rotfl:

    Thanks all! I'm well chuffed. Just couldn't believe it when he said he would do it at term. The registrar obviously had a word from last week's appointment. Apparently he's been in trouble from the hospital for not sticking to policy. He actually said to us, it's policy not law and I won't get arrested for it!!! When the midwife rang up to book it the lady on the phone at the hospital said we don't do electives on time any more!! Midwife said well consultant has authorised it so tough basically! Had my swabs for MRSA and need to go into hospital day before for my pre-op appointment. So exciting!!

    S_C you will know if they are contractions hun honestly. I can only describe them as being like period pains which build up then fade away

    I think we've decided on Theo Paul for a boy, although I do like Benjamin too. Paul is definitely the middle name, as it was OH's brother's name who died when OH was 3 (Paul was 18 I think, he got meningitis), so it'll either be Theo Paul or Benjamin Paul. When you say them *first name* *middle name*, I think I prefer Theo, but when you say Theo *surname* or Benjamin *surname* (or Ben *surname*) they all sound good :D

    We're leaning towards Lily for a girl, as it's the only one we can vaguely agree on that we both like (OH originally said no, but I think he's coming round to it). I like classic names, am thinking maybe Lily Grace, but I don't want something that's going to be really popular, IYKWIM, so I want to find something that's classic, but also unusual! If such a name actually exists...

    Am feeling full of cold now so am going to go home, hit the sofa in my dressing gown and spend the evening trawling baby name websites for some inspiration while OH cooks dinner... Even he should be able to manage cooking some pasta whilst reheating defrosted bolognese sauce I made last week...

    Benjamin Paul....but then I am biased as Benjamin is my son's name:j

    I was gonna say our choice of names earlier but got slightly put off with all that funniness, but i've had a kitkat so feel courageous!

    Our lil missy will be Jessica Rose, Rose being the middle name or Jenny Rose, again rose being middle name, chances are oh will go off one of those names as he has disagreed with everything else I have suggested xxx

    Don't be silly, that's a lovely choice of name :)
