I was 40+1 and had just eaten a whole pineapple when I got my 1st contraction at 3pm. Got a taxi through to my MIL and went for a hot bath. waters broke sometime after 6pm whilst on the toilet, by which point my contractions were coming thick and fast, and with no car we ended up having to get an ambulance to the hospital. Arrived at the hospital sometime after 7pm and was already crowning. My daughter was then born at 1925pm. So was a fairly quick labour overall x

I was watching hollyoakes eating my dinner sat on my ball when I felt a huge wave of pain! I handed my dinner over to my husband and breathed through it. Once it went I carried on eating my dinner!! 14 hours later Summer Jayde arrived in the bath at the hospital!! X

I was 34+2 dtd night before, went to work, then dentist, then asda, then my mums, made tea, went for a wee at 6:30, and waters went on the loo, contractions started straight after waters went and he was born at 24, so only seven and 1/2 hours, hope it's quick this time although not as premature please!

I was shopping and just felt very heavy and just not right down below at about 9am, was eating lunch about 1.30 when I started getting contractions, we're very strong by 4.30 and waters went at 7pm. I was trying to put a wash on the line for two hours but kept having to rush back to my birthing ball as every time I got to the washer a contraction would come xx
