Fingers crossed for a lovely smooth and swiftish labour for you apple. Personally I have no idea how it feels when it gets going naturally - hoping to find out this time - so you're doing better than me already!
Hurrah for your lovely births pasties and kirrin! Hurrah for a couple of girls too! There have been so many boys!
It really feels as if it's getting quite echoey in this antenatal thread, everyone's off to post-natal! I will definitely be here for ages. But this is good as far as I'm concerned - like Waiting I'd prefer to get any germs fairly far behind me before the baby is here. And I need to write all my Christmas cards. Three weeks (which is what I'm estimating for when mine arrives) still seems quite close!
MM here's a question I've been meaning to ask you - if you had a Valentine's conception, surely you'd be due earlier? When was your LMP? Mine was 23 Feb (ie after Valentine's) and I think we conceived around the beginning of March. My EDD is 25 November but I think 29 November. Or maybe you had a late Valentine's celebration cos of DH being away at sea ... that would make sense (I'm really not trying to pry into your sex life, I'm just wondering if you're due earlier than you've been told!).
