  • Hope it goes well Mozzy and Floaty.

    I REALLY would like this for my coming home outfit : http://www.asos.com/ASOS-Maternity/ASOS-MATERNITY-Maxi-Dress-with-Grecian-Drape-Detail/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2003030&cid=5813&Rf900=1465&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=-1&sort=-1&clr=Woodrose

    not sure I can justify it though!

    Emmylou, my soles feel like that too. Will have to have a nice long soak in the bath later.

    37 working days left for me and counting! Wish I could finish early but I want as much time the other side as I can as I'm only taking 6 months off

    Not sure, they said that they do this first, then the gel, then the drip. Don't want the drip!

    Yep, hubby has to leave by 9 boo

    Oh thats pants Mozzy :( Are u allowed to get up and walk around etc? Or are u strapped to a bed?! (not literally haha!) Really really hope something happens b4 9 then so ur hubby can stay xxx

    I didnt even realise that was a way of inducing, i just thought it was the gel then drip! Will have to check what my hosp does, as with 3 other kids i dont wanna be in hosp for 24 hours b4 they even do much!

    (((bug hugs))) Mozzy xxx

    Laura, i`ve had a Radox bath every night for the last 3 weeks, and my feet STILL hurt like hell! Even had them in a bowl of water the other evening down here and it made no difference :( Hope urs feel better after u`ve had a soak :)

    My washing machine is installed, yay!! Now to strip the beds and catch up on other bits, boo :( xx

    That sucks Mozzy, when I went in on the Friday night, they injected me with pethidine then tried to tell OH he had to leave :eek: I freaked out, big time, I could never have coped all night through my contractions without him.

    I am 48th based on the EDD, but I know I won't get to that, so just wondering how many I will jump over... hope not too many!!!!!

    Feeling really uncomfortable - had to get out of bed as woke up with the worst back pain in ages, and now sitting on the sofa feel like I am all squashed and can't breath much. My bump was hurting again last evening and during the night...

    Oh god that makes me 47th as I'm just before you!

    When I was induced they put the tape thing in for 24 hour then changed it for another 24 hour and when it didn't work they broke my waters and put the drip in I ended up being in hospital for 4 days before baby came,the 1st day I was just waiting around for them to put the tape in as they wanted to do it in delivery suite incase my waters broke and the cord came out as baby was high up,then they left it till next day and put it in on the ward anyway.
