As the title says really, 42 weeks pregnant now, been being induced for what feels like forever. Hospital are short staffed, delivery suite is rammed so I've been shoved in a side room and told they'll do nothing more until tomorrow.

Really not happy about this. I have a 2.8 year old who I'm missing terribly, I'm concerned about the increased risk of something bad happening when you go over 42 weeks and the whole thing is making me anxious!

It's ridiculous!!

It's strange to think that while you were giving birth. I was shopping in Aldi.

Congratulations. Was just coming on to see if you'd progressed and that's the best news of all.
