all the best when he/she finally makes an appearence. :yes:
Good luck for when he/she decides to make an appearance! xx
Hope it's all going/has gone well, we're thinking of yoooou (two).
I'm ok, just a bit bored now. Still, can't be longer than Tuesday because that's when I've agreed to let them break my waters. I won't need and prostaglandin gel and the consultant said he'll eat his hat if I need syntocinon. I was always going to agree to induction after 42 weeks anyway, so that'll be it.
i wouldn't have wanted him/her stealing my thunder anyway
Well it shouldn't be too bad really, like I said I don't need prostaglandin gel because I'm already effaced and 3 cm dilated, so I won't be laying around for days on the antenatal wards waiting for that to work. I'm going straight to the labour ward where they will break my waters and that should be that. My last three have started with my waters breaking anyway, and one of those was only 40 minutes - I'm hoping for a couple of hours so it has time to build up and the endorphins to kick in!
Never a truer word was spoken.
Yeah sounds like you are doing ok already. Glad you won't need the gel. Yeah i hope you get the time for the endorphins to kick in. Any plans on pain relief?
Entonox.
Great stuff, although it made me sick over chris lol
At least the end is in sight :yippe:
