It was indeed! Lets see what hap

Namechangedembrassedmum · 02/01/2013 13:45

Nutella just when i got into your story...
I just expected a dd as we have three already.

What am i suppose to do with a boy?!?

WillYuleDoTheFandango · 02/01/2013 13:49

Watch out for the willy! I started today scrubbing my carpet as DS peed off the side of his cot-top changing mat! No crevices for poo to collect in though, so that's something!

SpottyTeacakes · 02/01/2013 13:57

You need some of these Grin

RockabillyKitty · 02/01/2013 14:05

OMG Spotty that link is hilarious! I'm expecting a boy and already freaking out about getting sprayed with wee LMFAO!!!

itsMYNutella · 02/01/2013 15:52

Shit. I wrote a massive essay of a birth story and for some reason it hasn't posted... Ok. I'll try again later otherwise it'll be when I get home tomorrow afternoon.

GrinGrin at 'willy wigwams'!!

Hormonalhell · 02/01/2013 16:24

Hi just a bit of advice ladies...I've been contracting every 10 mins since tea time yesterday. Does anyone think it's labour, they hurt but I can handle them Smile

BuntyCollocks · 02/01/2013 16:35

How long are they lasting, hormonal? could be the start of the latent phase, where you're aware but they're a manageable pain

WillYuleDoTheFandango · 02/01/2013 16:59

I did 14 hours of painful but manageable Hormonal hopefully they'll ramp up for you. Get climbing those stairs to encourage your cervix to dilate

WillYuleDoTheFandango · 02/01/2013 17:01

Teehee willy wigwam, I stick cotton wool on it but he soaked through. He also weed out of his nappy onto my crotch this afternoon, thought my pelvic floor had given up! Think he just does massive wees!

SpottyTeacakes · 02/01/2013 17:04

Touch wood we haven't had any wee or poo incidents so far!

Hormonalhell · 02/01/2013 17:09

Thanks ladies Smile they lasting for about 40 seconds on average really, just feel really crap n fed up

Namechangedembrassedmum · 02/01/2013 18:06

Lol @ will.
Hope they become something hormonal

Hormonalhell · 02/01/2013 19:01

Yes me too am so boooored with false labour Grin

SilverLake · 02/01/2013 19:34

I was pretty fed up with false labour (all pain but no obvious gain)...but now, after days of nothing, i'm beginning to look back on it fondly as at least false labour was a sign of something going on.

hormonal it surely has to be the start of labour for you.

mwahmwah · 02/01/2013 19:54

Thanks to whoever added me to the stats thread Smile I'm still hanging on, panicking that our move day is two weeks tomorrow so I will indeed be moving house with a proper newborn! Hubby took this week off on hols too assuming we'd have a bubba but now looks like he'll go back to work Monday and I'll be abandoned with a newborn, 2 year old and 6 year old starting a new school! Oh FFs!!!

RockabillyKitty · 02/01/2013 21:16

Soooo I had a cheeky sweep this afternoon, but also got booked in for an induction on 11 Jan which I think is much more likely to be how it happens for me. Anyone any thoughts on if a first sweep has much effect?

Hormonalhell · 02/01/2013 21:33

Well I think so cos of pain, my midwife thinks so but I think baby has other ideas Hmm

One born every minute is filmed in the hospital I'm going in, I actually recognise some of the midwives I've been in that often Grin

RockabillyKitty · 02/01/2013 21:51

Oh good luck hormonal!!

Ah crap, forgot about new One Born... C4+1 in a minute!!

AlisonDB · 02/01/2013 23:43

Good luck Hormonal, do you have an excersize ball? Try bouncing on that for a bit, may help speed things up a bit,
Ouch I haven't been able to watch one born since I got preg,

Well I was fast asleep until about 20 minutes ago when 5 yr old DS woke with a bad dream.
Now I can't get back to sleep and really peeved as this will be my last full night sleep in a long time,

Thomas is coming home this afternoon!!
Finally after a full month in scbu he is coming home!! Whooooooo hooooooo!!!

yuletopian99 · 03/01/2013 02:09

hormonal is OBEM filmed at st Mary's, Manchester? I never watched it (too scared!) but thought i heard it was, and that's where Oz was born..

kitty my first sweep did nowt although seriously uncomfy, but was at 40+3 so may just have been too early anyway.

Loving the Willy wigwams!

emilyeggs · 03/01/2013 08:51

Alison that's wonderful news, finally all together Grin
