back from the hospital!

[charlotte_]

the monitered me for an hour or so then sent me home because i wasn't having full on contractions.
the midwife said i'm having some... but i can't feel them, some women don't until they get worse apparently.
the feeling that she said was contractions was what i've been feeling in my back for a day or two, i thought that was just backache!

she gave me another sweep & i'm still leaking everywhere, it's so gross, haha. bleeding a little bit now too. she said my cervix was soft & 50% effaced (i think that's the word!)

so i'm to go back if i'm in pain, or in the morning when i was due to be induced.

I started bleeding after I was checked to see if I was dialted and the contractions started not long after, fingers crossed for you

 

[hennaly]

oh buggery bollocks i really thought today was the day still i reckon it could be

 

[charlotte_]

yeah, it still could be! i'm having tightenings every 7-9(ish) minutes. nothing painful though.
i'm really tired now though after all that adrenaline rush! got my feet up while OH does the washing up, perfect

 

[emmie]

i would see if you can have a nap hun you may need it

 

[charlotte_]

yeah, i was thinking that. i've put my pajama's on, just need to make the bed (all the sheets were damp, lol)!

I dont think it will be long now - I'd get a rest if I was you - maybe your last in a while

Aww I hope you had a nice rest hun!! (I did read this before and i was about to reply when Joe came in with my tea then I fell asleep on the sofa! haha )

 

[charlotte_]

just been lounging on the sofa, not really had any sleep.
i'm having regular tightenings now, but they still don't hurt... at all!
waters are still leaking a lot, and there's quite a bit of blood in them, but i think that must be from the sweep the midwife gave me before.

 

[lea m]
