If you're lucky (like I was :j ) you may go through the whole delivery without having to have an internal examination.

I've been thinking this - the idea of people fiddling around down there turns my stomach (although getting a baby out wouldn't bother me ... am I strange?!) so it's a serious plus ... that was until I discovered they'll probably want to put a catheter in :eek: . I can only hope they wait until I've had the spinal and somebody distracts me and I don't even notice it happening because otherwise they'll have to hold me down!

Good morning

I'm still here nearly 24 hours after the stretch and sweep so I am guessing "arnold" is trying to stay put for as long as possible. No twinges since tea time yesterday. Had a curry in hope that might work too but alas no.

MIL had kids last night so that I could get a better nights sleep, however I was still up for an hour or so last night. It's so quiet here, so when I hear someone driving off at 4.50am I wonder if it's someone going to work or whether they are leaving a man/ woman behind after a night of passion. Funny how mind plays up when pregnant.

Am off to steam clean kitchen(again). See ya later.

Hi. Ta guys. I really getting to think that he/she is never coming naturally. Had few twinges this afternoon. Have dug up some weeds in hope that it might spur something on later.

Am really getting annoyed with the whole family and village asking if I have had it yet. I can't believe people would think I won't let them know.

The Stretch And Sweep Never Worked For Me In My Last Pregnancy. Ended Up Having My Waters Broke The Next Morning As Baby Was 11 Days Overdue - Which Worked.

Okay, need some reassurance. I am finding this past week that I can no longer walk up stairs without needing to catch my breath. Last night my dad noticed that I can't go two sentences without catching my breath! Just talking! :eek:
Now, I have never been a particularly fit person, but I felt perfectly fine on my skiing holiday at the beginning of my pregnancy. And that requires some sort of fitness level.
This has come upon me quite suddenly I feel. I haven't been exercising..., and walking the dog everyday I take a rather leisurely pace, due to palvic discomfort and clicking in my back.
This is worrying me, as am only 28 weeks and have no desire to be like this for the next 3 months. Am I stupidly unfit or is this just that my fundus (great word) is already pushing up my diaphragm?
