Just because I know you all love a live threadGrin
And also because I promised updates to @notthemum, @pickingdaisies, @RandomMess and @Umberta!

37+0 today. I'm due to get the plaster off my broken ankle tomorrow, been looking forward to it all week and then I had a small gush of liquid this afternoon. Then another, bigger one an hour later, with what was probably my mucus plug.

My hospital bag was packed but I'd bought a load of new stuff in the sale last week so emptied it all out yesterday to wash and start again. DH watching me, rolling his eyes, telling me to "stop acting like I'm going to give birth tomorrow".

Ha! I'll never let him forget that one!!! 

Haven't had any contractions yet, bar a couple of minor twinges this morning that went away with painkillers. I'm still on anticoagulants for my foot so just on my way to hospital now to see what the score is and if they'll let me attempt a vbac or if it's going to be another c section.

Wish me luck!

Congratulations @mamansnet ! What's beautiful name - I seriously considered it for my future little girl, but with an uncle already called Clement we ended up excluding it.

Your meal last night sounds wonderful. Make sure you rest up lots and I hope that they are looking after you.

Enjoy your baby and look after yourself. xxx
