Hi ragna,

At least you have some kind of perspective now!!!

I felt disapointed after my 'sweep' yesterday when I found out baby still wasn't any nearer to making an appearance but at least I know Im definately going in tomorrow and will meet my baby soon!

Im scared but feel like a child at christmas at the same time!!!

Yes that's exactly the feeling isn't it? Although when you wake up every morning you realise that Xmas isn't today after all but it might be tomorrow!

Thinking of you all

Anything anyone?

I've just heard from the husband of a girl I met at antenatal classes who I've been having weekly lunch and moan sessions with and she had her baby girl last night- two weeks early! So pleased for her as her bump was very large and she was finding it very difficult, her husband is over 6ft and she's about 5ft like me so she was worried that she was having a whopper! He didn't say how heavy Megan was when she was born but he said that they were both well .

Nothing from me I'm afraid.

My twinges kinda stopped for most of the afternoon, I went for a little walk and have had some shooting pains low down in my "bits" since then.

Maybe.......

Had my sweep. I was 1cm dilated and she was very surprised at how soft my cervix was. She touched baby's head - awwww!!! I want to!!!!

It didn;t hurt at all and I didn;t even find it uncomfortable.

Having bath now as have backache and loads of tightenings. They'll Probably go soon. Has anyone had success with sweeps???

Baby is gonna be about 7lb.

YAY great news.....don't get your hopes up too much... I was so convinced It was all happening for me yesterday

 

[emma1976]

I know. It's not gonna happen tonight i can tell

xxxxxxxxxxx

 

[lulu]

thats so cool Emma!!!

I am still here - as you can see, but that was kind of predicted.

Getting anxious about going into hospital tomorrow though - hope the first induction works, dont want to stay in too long

 

[Rosebay]

Ooh Emma! Keep positive! This could nearly be it then , even if not tonight she is obviously so nearly ready to arrive!

Good luck for tomorrow Lulu

[emma1976]

Yehah Lulu good luck honey. am sure you will be posting after first induction was successful. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Urchin]

Hope it all goes well for you tomorrow lulu, let us know asap.

I've got a bit of an issue with damp pants atm (god this forum can be gross at times LOL)
I've worn a couple of pads today, I don't really think my waters could have broken, but the pads are definitley a bit damp.

I really wish it was summer, I'd be out walking round the park...but it's tipping it down.

 

[lulu]

Well I will be staying in untill I have the baby, they induce me at 6am, leave it 6 hours before doing it again, hopefully that will work - if not they try again the next morning!!

So the next post after tonight will be an arrival post (all being well), thats scarey in itself!!!

 

[Urchin]

It's a friends site. My other friend found a place that does it too, I'll find out if you like.

yeah if you can that would be cool hun

You need to upload you avs to a "rotator" or something like that. If you're struggling gimme a shout.

 

[emma1976]

I'm peed off. Was so hoping it would happen tonight and I just know it won't

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Rosebay]

It still might though and even if it doesn't it sounds like you're well on the way so try not to get upset hun

Mind you I'm just sitting here thinking that it'll never happen to me either! Easier said than done eh?

Hurry up babies!

Join the club.

I've had a bit more show.....definitley show this time too....still wondering if it means anything or not.

 

[emma1976]

Tell me about it. I haven't even had a bit of a show and I wanted one This is the worst waiting of anything I have ever had to go through !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

xxxxxxxxxx

I suppose I was almost expecting to go overdue, last time I went 10 days over with my son I was absolutley GUTTED.
I kind of prepared myself for it this time, although people do say the second time you are not as likely to go overdue.

I'm just trying to focus on the fact that my baby will be here really soon.
I've been bouncing alot on my birthing ball too, to try and get his head down a bit more.

I spoke to my friend just who's a midwife, she said that a little bit of dampness could mean my hindwaters have broken.

 

[emma1976]

Ooooooh that's great hun. Good luck
