    Very quick update!

    Still no baby, let's just say birth plan went well and truly out window! Now hooked up to epidural so feeling better :)

    Baby seems happy enough at mo, being examined at 7 pm to see if I'm any more dilated. I hope so as if not c-section.

    Can't wait for my cuddles!

    Thanks for all the support ladies :)

    I have to ask as your only just gone due date by a few days and not 2 weeks ... Why are they inducing you? Or did you not want to wait until you were mega overdue? Oh scrap that ... Your waters broke didn't they/

    My friend sent me this today..video on accupressure points in the foot and calves which if massaged can induce labour.

    I have given it a go.. will try almost anything now!

  • Wow it's been a bit quiet on here today!

    BB hope all is well, you might even be having mummy cuddles by now :D Sorry your birth plan didn't go to plan.

    RJH that made me laugh, hope you enjoyed the walk up to the part you needed a wee!
    Twinklie what did your cousin say? Bet she is iver the moon
    Jedi I think the first link may have worked if your album was public? I think even if it is set to friends only that can see it and you share the link at the bottom of the page "outsiders" cannot see it. I'm really nosey to see what the pics are now! I love the bright sleepsuits though
    MMM what a bummer from your friend, bit crap to promise you something, like you said you've got the travel system so you're a bit stuck. Good luck for your test tomorrow.

    I did get persuaded to go to tesco earlier. Took a long time to walk about there, couldn't face every aisle as normal so OH knew I really was feeling crap. Still OH got me some pic and mix :D my hands still aren't working 100% so dropping stuff, but OH helpfully has picked the choccy raisins I dropped down my top out ;)

    Well hope everyone has had a good weekend

    wow it has been quiet on here today!

    BB really hope you are close to having your little bundle! Can't wait for news!

    twinklie what did your cousin say? Bet it was a shock!

    I saw a friend of a friend yesterday who didn't know I was pregnant and the look on her face was a picture!

    I wanted to see that moneypuddle but haven't got the channel either. Let us know what its like!

    Well I made the mistake of watching a repeat of One Born Every Minute just now, and at 11 days till due date, I am now quietly sh**ting myself!!

    I watched it all the time earlier on in my pregnancy but haven't watched anything giving birth related for weeks! Oops.

    Hope everyone had a nice weekend!

    Mrs Bryan i think you'll be able to catch it online. Maybe here http://www.sidereel.com/curiosity/season-1/episode-15

    Was it the OBEM with the twins, and also the midwife giving birth? I saw that one earlier. Always makes me cry and feel a funny combination of terrified, excited and convinced I wont be able to do it.

    OH is being a bit of a douche this week. Its been his birthday this week (33) and he's had the whole week off work and has spent it watching football and drinking with his friends, which would be fine if (a) we had the money for him to drink all the time, (b) it didn't effect his health in a way that worries me massively and (c) we didn't have things that needed doing around the house.

    I think the reason it annoys me most is because I'm not going to be taking any holiday between now and October when the baby is due (because my boss has promised to pay me for any holiday that I have left and we really need the money!), so I'm working full time until the last minute. We still need to do the nursery, finish the bathroom etc, so even though he had an entire week off, all he did was mow the lawn once and thinks he deserves a medal. I dont know how he possibly thinks it will all get done.

    And because we had a VERY rocky start to our relationship, I do worry constantly about being cheated on, especially now I feel fat, lazy, sore, tired and have back ache. I'm not a very attractive concept to come home to, so who can blame him? I know a new girl started at his work today. I asked what she was like and he said "Really nice - but not my type". I didn't mean looks wise, but it just made me feel even more poop :-(
