1st prostaglandin hasn't done much, cervix not changed. Had a sweep. Giving me more prostaglandin in a couple of hours if no change. Getting regular tightenings, but need more progress! Trying to sleep but being monitored every hour, so difficult.

 

[Rayoflight]

Even if you sleep for that hour between them monitoring you it's better than nothing. Keeps your strength up! Good luck!!! Xxx

 

[bidsy]

oh hope your doingok and that things are progressing. good luck darling xxxx

 

[indigo]

Suspect waters have broken, but not totally sure (not much fluid). Been hooked up to monitor for hours, just escaped. No more gel as yet, but getting regular contractions every few mins, just not sure if its the real thing or not. Breathing techniques really good. Another examination soon...

Good luck Indigo - sounds like your def on the way now hun, relax keep doing the hypno stuff you have learned , I'm sure it will really help you. Just think your little baby is making it's way to you at last.

A xmas eve or xmas day baby - how special X

 

[indigo]

Lay down for a bit and had a little sleep. Contractions stopped, or were really mild when lying down. Don't think waters had gone. Had some breakfast. Sitting up has brought contractions back about every 4 mins. Waiting for exam.

Scrub that. Had waters broken. No progress. Drip next. Baby heart beat was dropping during contraction, but stabilized.

Not happy, but baby first.
