Well ladies, we have another labour watch 
Helen's waters went this morning and shes currently getting around 2-3 contractions every 10 minutes.
Shes using the tens and waiting for midwife to come over at the minute .... ill update when i get any news!
*update*
Approx 2pm -Midwife has been over, bp is fine, baby is fine but contractions arent getting any more painful or frequent so its a waiting game for now!
Approx 8pm - ''Just popping in to say I'm still at home! Contractions are a bit stronger but not as frequent! Went four a walk and that's done nothing either! Have tried to have naps but keep waking up with the contractions. Getting a little bit disheartened, so please send positive, labour vibes all the way up to Aberdeen. Thanks for your support girls!''
11.15am - Pinky just text saying shes arrived at hospital. She managed to speak to another midwife who advised her to go in and be demanding - to try and get an internal and a possible induction.
2pm - Pinky has been admitted to maternity ward and allowed out for a walk
She will be examined again in a few hours and if nothing else happens then she will be induced this evening!
9pm - Still waiting!!! Talking about induction in the morning. Poor Pinky!
2.42am - Text from Helen ''still only 3cm, the reason i was put down here was so they could break the fore waters - but there is no fore waters! Now shes away to call the labour ward to get me through there to start the drip. Im going to ask for an epidural ive had enough. I just said to midwife right thats it we need to get things started because i cant do this anymore. Eeven contractions seem less frequent!!''
7.30am - She's FINALLY been taken to labour ward! Horray!
2.15PM - ''Still on the drip and epidural, things are moving finally!"
Please send her love and good vibes .... i think shes needs them!
Go Pinky go!!
''Emily Kate Cruickshank finally arrived 20th May at 7.52pm she seems really chilled out!''
Congratulations honey!! Sooooooo pleased for her!!!
