How many babies are we going to get on this thread?

I had such horrible dreams last night. I woke up believing that my lovely Mister had left me. It's still making me cry just thinking about it!

Congratulation Flumpy, and another gorgeous name. Hope you're both doing well.

Good luck sstrawberry

clarella good luck with mw this morning hope shes a nice one and can help iron out some of your worries/confusion you definately have to decide whats right for you.

Good luck for today strawb hope things go like your last induction which sounds like it was a good one. Will be waiting for baby news :)

Sorry to all those not sleeping :( im actually worried about how little sleep ill get with a newborn as sleep hasnt really been an issue for me during pregnancy (think thats why i was so disapointed on sunday night when i was having pains and not able to sleep as thought something must be happening)

Well in seeing diabetic consultant thismorning armed with nice guidelines and other research to discuss homebirth :)

Congratulations flumpy

Off in a min to the obstetrician hopefully they will decide what to do with my sugar levels and induction. Will keep you all updated.

And congratulations flumpy sorry i missed you

Clarella i understand what you mean about being hormonal i cried last night cause dh wanted a new phone case so i picked one but he didnt like it this turned into me asking why nothing i do is ever good enough and having a massive sob.....poor dh didnt know what to do

Good luck ellie

In labour ward, had gel ... not much happening but getting bored!!!

Truing to read back through thread ive missed ... had a massive wobble and almost didn't make it in this evening. Oh well, here now, not much choice in the end once you've organised babysitters, parents book flights etc etc ???

Good luck strawbs!

Good luck Walnut

Good luck elliebelle!

Yes hormones don't help!

Latest cervical news: maybe a tiny bit thinner! But still barely a bishops score! Different mw tho. Despite claims that a girl with similar situation on tues who came in yesterday and her waters broke in the waiting room I'm plus due date buddy has had very nice induction yesterday (spd) and now has cute baby girl and in many hospirals It would have been yesterday any how.

Aw good luck walnut!!

Good luck walnut & strawb

Good luck ellie

Good luck walnut

Congratulations flumpy and can I say, what a fantastic name

Good luck ellie strawb & walnut!!! Lots of puddings on the way

I'm off for my growth scan today. Looking forward to seeing bubs but I'm quite aware of why I'm going eek! Seeing consultant next week to discuss results

Congratulation flumpy!!

Congrats flumpy!!

Clarella my baby is right down but cervix very posterior. See how we go! I think things can change very quickly.

Good luck Emily and Ellie (still reading back!!)

Good luck walnut

Congratulations flumpy!

clarella my induction was an early induction (at 38 weeks) so nothing had really happened before it in terms of my body starting to prepare itself for labour. But all I needed was the prostaglandin gel and a few hours later my labour had started (although I didn't realise it at the time) and then progressed extremely rapidly. No waters broken, no drip. So everyone's experience is different - whether or not you've reached a particular stage beforehand doesn't necessarily affect how quickly or well your induction might go. Hope you make a decision that you're happy with, and good luck!!

Ok just had the gel in. Midwife is lovely and let me have has and air when she did it. Waiting for something to happen now.......

strawb so exciting!

Mmmm gas & air

Gas and air rocks, puffed a little bit too hard and felt slightly nauseous afterwards but it was worth it. She said 'I've got my finger on your baby's head' and I said 'would you mind taking it off please?' embarrassing gas and air talk already.

I want gas and air! :) have now got five puncture marks and no cannula. Effing veins

I've still got bruises on my arms from the bloody cannula attempts! Apparently I have jumpy veins
