    Argh I'm first!!! That is all.

    Well actually no it's not. I've started having tightenings etc. Nothing implying labour is imminent but defo that my body is gearing up for something, which is super exciting. Last time I had no signs whatsoever.

    I had tightening last night, quite painful ones but they stopped after a bit. Never thought I would be disappointed to not be in pain!

    What was the first thing to happen then if you had no signs? It's all exciting!

    I was induced, so prior to that absolutely nothing. I'm desperate for spontaneous labour this time.

    Sorry, I thought I'd posted here. I had our lovely DS on 7th August - I was induced in the end due to complications. The birth was not how I'd planned and we've had a tricky time since then, including another hospital stay. However, DS is gorgeous and worth everything a million times over.

    Just wish he'd sleep a bit more...
