I wouldnt mind that again
Knowing how this pregnancy has been this is how I think it will go....
8 weeks overdue they tell me that they got their dates wrong and Im actually going to give birth Oct 2009 I have to carry my bump in a wheebarrow its soooo big and after a weeks labour she comes out in her school uniform and a sandwich in one hand telling me Im a bad mother and she is filing for emmancipation in the court.
Haha!! My birth was SOOOOOO far from this it's unreal!!! loldannii87 said:Oooh!! Fun idea!!
Realistically, this is what I genuinely think will happen;
I will be 10 days overdue and will start getting contractions around 11pm that evening (with only niggles during the day as a sign)... They will continue until about 5am where I head off to hospital. Hospital won't think I'm progressing like I should and I will go on a drip at 10am the next morning after they break my waters (after 12 hours of contractions leading nowhere). After getting an epi at 12:30pm, Evie will arrive at 4pm on the 11th day of being overdue weighing 7lb 13oz.
Ideally, this is what I would LIKE to happen;
My waters suddenly break 22:36 on Wednesday 20th August at 2 days early. (see when this post was postedxx
But, she was 6lb 13oz so I was a pound off! And I did have an epi (it just didn't work
). I was induced and it WAS progressing, and Miss was born at 7 mins off 4o'clock!! xShall we start this one up again?
I reakon i will go to the obstetrician on Thursday (so i will be overdue at that point) and they will do a sweep, I will then go into labour on the saturday night and it will be really busy and i will be told to go away and come back. I will then go back and wont be allowed to use the pool (as it will be occupied) so will have to give birth in the delivery suite. I will (hopefully) manage on gas an air but will have an episiotomy.
I will have a girl and she will weigh 7lb 8oz.

Haha after reading that i want to predict (forgetting this weeks complaints haha!)
Ok...
in 25 days on the 9th of december (10 days early) i will start having niggley contrations starting at 4pm. after two hours my lower back will start hurting so i get in the shower to ease the pain. after the shower and taking a paracetamol i have a lay down for a hour and get up with my waters breaking all over the new sheets ... we then call the midwife and she comes out to check me and im 3cm dilated so we get the TENS machine. i turn on the music channel to take my mind off the pain untill it starts getting intense half hour later. i will then have OH rubbing my back and fetching me my icecubes and holding a cold flannel on my forehead. i progress to 4-5cm and start using the G&A. i will concentrate on my breathing and next get examined at 12 pm and am 6cm from then on everything goes very quickly and i gave birth to our little Nicky weighing 6lb2oz at 2:16am Wednesday 10th 2008

Mine was actually pretty accurate!
I went into labour at 7pm, lasted just over 3 hours and Eden was born at 10.10pm. I was 2 days overdue as predicted 
and managed with just the water and a little gas & air Oh but I was a pound out on the weight, as she was only 8lb 6oz Anybody elses predictions come true? nickilubs wrote:
Me thinks my waters will break as I'm walking to work and I will get a lift home she will be born at around 9-10pm whist some wham song will be playing on the laptop LOL weighing 6lb 2oz. I will just have gas and spend most of my labour making cups of tea, food, and in the shower and stood dancing to cheezy 80s music and being cuddled and scratched and rubbed by my OH
I will probably still be giggling all the way through except the pushing part where I will be listening to every word midwife says and begging to God I don't tear!!!
LOL yay mine was about right!
My waters broke in hospital at, she was born at 2.51am we were singing "it keeps raining" by Bitty McLean and she weighed 6lb 10oz. I only had gas, I was eating flap jacks and chicken sarnies drinking tea and danced around my ward till I led on the bed and my waters broke. And my other pain relief was my OH giving me lots of back rubs lol!
And I listened to every word my Midwife said (not because Im a good girl,.....because she scared the shite out of me lol) and yep I tore!

Gosh this seems like a LIFETIME ago
Mine was spot on
Being in hozzy for those few days waiting without certainy for a space to free up on the labour ward I certainly felt 8 weeks overdue, she didnt have a sandwich though
I think mine will be similar to last time, pretty quick and not much warning. I'm hoping I'll go a little bit early - I've got the night of 11th/12th December in my head as a 'good' day
I predict it'll be a boy, weighing 7lb 12oz, 4 days early (12th December) at 4am after a 2 hour labour.
That'd be nice, anyway

I wont predict the labour as tbh each time I try to think how it might go, my head goes blank?!
But I will say that we have all guessed a date and a weight so will post them!
I said, 4th Dec (8 days over) and weighing 8lbs 2oz
Joe said 20th Nov (6 days early) and weighing 6lbs 8oz
Joseph 18th Nov OR 27th Nov (8days early or 1 day late) and weighing 8lbs 4oz
Dillon 1st OR 2cd Dec (5 or 6 days late) and weighing 7lbs 6oz
Lucy 16th OR 17th Nov (9 or 10 days early) and weighing 8lbs 7oz
So we will see who is closest hahahaha
