still here, sorry, having contractions with slight pain now. Had very strong contactions late last night and this afternoon but without any pain. Done the loo poo and runny bum thing and i can feel that she is a lot lower but cant understand why i have mot had more pain? Every time i went to sleep things stopped but dont think they will this time. Fingers crossed will keep you posted.

You may not need to have your waters broken either... maybe no time for an epdiral... and it may also only start tomorrow.... BUT PLEASE POST BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT!

I always end up having my waters broken before things really speed up.Last time 2 hours to dilate and 15 min to push db out.But was in hospital for 3 hours and only went from 3 to 4 cm before they decided to break waters.

Nothing might happen tonight. Relax and have a bath

If you are not contracting, a bath isn't going to slow anything down.

Oh! Not what I expected at all! Was about to give you sensible advice about purchasing universal travel plugs from the quite quite mad Magellan's catalogue...

Best of luck anyway! XXXX
