Well they've tried to examine me but I am absolutely awful with internal examinations and couldn't relax at all for her however I've had my first hit with gas and air and it's marvellous stuff!!! I've already put a canister of it on my Christmas list for next year!
Hooked me back up on the monitor again after failed attempt at examination because she wasn't happy with baby's lack of movements but she's woken up now so I'm back off the monitor. Had some painkillers but tbh they haven't even touched the side.
Contracting regularly and the only place i can get comfy is on hands and knees on the bed with my bum in the air. I really thought I'd cope better than this with the pain but it's just not happening .
On the diamorphine to try and relax me so they can have a better look. And I've ended up with my own room!! Really fighting to try and stay awake so she can examine me and find out how far on I am.
I feel such a wimp and like I've let myself down for going down the drugs route so early on. I can't stop saying thank you and sorry to them all for putting up with me as I feel such a nuisance. The only thing I feel alright about is that I'm not screaming the place down (yet) lol.
Also in my own room now as well! Didn't mean to be, I just suggested going in one temporarily while we tried a second examination so that my panicking didnt upset the other women but ive ended up here for the night.
The drugs are no longer my friends . They go from amazing to absolutely poo when they run out lol. The way I was so drowsy before made me think I would sleep till the morning, not till just half 1!!
I can't wait for breakfast though. Hmmmmmm! Although ill be devastated if it's anything like my tea......
I think I would rather they had used the gel than the pessary!
Managed to sleep through till 6 and then MW woke me up for breakfast at half 7 which was absolutely crap .
They couldn't examine me very well still even with the diamorphine and she said the pessary wasn't as far up as it should be. She also said something about my cervix being posterior and it will hurt too much for her to push the pessary closer to it, which I agreed with because even with trying my best to not tense, I was in absolute agony!
Being hooked up to the monitor again in a bit and then being re examined again. Still trying to convince them to just bash me over the head while they do it but I don't seem to be getting anywhere
24 hours is up at around half 1.
I'm still absolutely knackered! Think I'm gonna go back to sleep till Ted gets here with my can of coke.
Taken the pessary out and sent me upto the birth centre. Hooked up to the monitor atm and contracting well so hopefully they won't need to put me on the drip after they've broken my waters.
