Fuffins, i dont know aobut Becky but your story certainly made me feel better!!
I've been getting myself down assuming that a back to back labour would automatically mean i'd end up needing an Epi (which i really dont want), its nice to hear it can be done without, thinking about it my mum did it with my brother without too but she doesnt count lol

It is funny how we sometimes disregard what our moms went through. I am petrified of an episiostomy (sp? way off lol)....My mom was given one wtihout gas and air and not even ona contraction She got through it....To me, I would not get through it regardless!

I am glad the story helped you. I think knowing it's a back to back labour must help even more. Just have the birth ball ready. I had it on the bed and kneeled, leaning over it. My mom and the MW took it in time to massage my back thorugh each contraction while I went up, up and away on gas and air

Whateer happens, I am sure we can cope with it....Even me and being cut

just had a huge gooey show (tmi sorry) and ive been having strong periody pains again.

definetly NOT getting my hopes up though, i still think ill have to be induced 2moro...

I think, at my hospital, if you go in to be induced and you are already dialating, they often do a firm sweep or break waters if possible. Avoids 'formal' induction.

Hopefully, you will beat the hospital and getin there first Tezzy!

This is a good thread about positive inductions. Some can be negative....But this one concentrates solely on positive experiences

Good luck induction 3!

Thats what they did to me my waters had broke with no contractions so i was booked in for a formal induction but through the night at hossie i dialated 2cm so they gave me a sweep. it didnt work for me but im sure it will for you fingers crossed you can get the sweep and it all kicks of naturally

YAY i can join this thread today!!!

As expected i have nothing to write home about, but im telling myself thats due to the sheer amount of overdue babies and not being able to pop until they come

I had (what felt like) constant BH yesterday and a hell of a lot of nerve pain and some cramps, but i thought the cramps were due to her moving so much, i was convinced she'd gone bk in to position, even Dave could feel her back, but now i'm sure shes back to back again

theres some babies start making an appearance today!! You've all been waiting so long now, plus i need to get boody with cute baby pics

CONGRATULATIONS ON REACHING FULL TERM SWEETIE
WELCOME TO HOW NOT TO SPOT SIGNS OF LABOUR THREAD

 

[Terrie]

[sarafet]

i went a long walk last night, got some lovely blisters on my feet, apart from that - nothing

 

[Terrie]

[BeckyJ]

ahh well im sure i will get some later when theyve had a good poke with me at the hosp

good luck girlies

 

[sarah2807]

Exciting stuff (sort of) I have some little signs today...period pains and a bit of blood in my discharge this morning when I wiped (TMI???) It is only a very little bit but i'm hoping it''s the start of a show

I've just left a message for my midwife asking if I can have a sweep tomorrow. They do them at 40 +7 and I'll only be 40+2 tmw but thought it was worth asking cos at my next appointment I'll be 40+9.

 

[BeckyJ]

great news - good luck sarah x

 

[sarah2807]

How are you today Becky?
Are you feeling a bit better about the induction.
Not long until you'll have your baby now chick.

 

[abcd1234]

How exciting is today!!! cant beleive theres 3 of you for inductions! it must be so odd going to bed last night knowing that by the end of today you should *fingers crossed* at least be in labour!!

My own personal daily report..... nothing lol, except after a day of being in the right position again im pretty sure she's moved! She's meant to have no room anymore! I cant wish her out when she's in the wrong position!!

AND i've just realised i can use my tens machine now!
