Welcome aboard ladies! You will see the newly installed infant car seats complete with cup holders for the mums waters wine. Make yourselves comfortable, it's going to be a long and sometimes bumpy journey with little ones making their arrivals!

Big day Frus! Sounds like they're hopeful that little one will get into position. Exciting.

kittykatsforever · 15/05/2013 09:49

Oh frus it's turning into abit of a drama isn't it, don't blame your irritation on the lack of food or drink though, hope they can turn him nice and easily
Jojo not sure you can use balls etc with induction ( well definatly not when your on the drip) but thought that's why alot of women don't want it as it makes you more immobile? Frus will know more then me though
My results were slightly out if range ( I say slightly they won't tell me what?) but they want to wait for bile results before they discuss which was why I was surprised they'd jumped into action with you on the initials, even when my sis was + for both and high they wanted to wait another week and retest etc Ive just been told to contact them straight away if she slows down movement etc I'm sure ifs stress and uncertainty that's affecting my sleep but my itching has been keeping me awake at night and after Jojo s link, (never looked up other symptoms as we get tested as soon as itching ) I've seen that sickness tiredness are all other signs plus pale bowel movements which mine have been aswell this week so who knows
I hope you get your cup of coffee soon though ( or little snuffley new born)

Crikey! I go for one last big night out and some people go into to hospital to be induced. I'm glad I've not missed the fun (I hope it is being fun for you Frus, I'm not being distrespectful, I'd be worried along with the excitement but its good to be positive)

This has got me thinking that I really should start thinking about packing my bag. I have a drawer of useful bits but nothing coherent. Although to be fair I don't feel at all imminent, just very pregnant,

First day of Mat leave for me, I made DH late for work cos I wanted a cuddle. Am now pottering about the house and making a list of all the things that are still to be done, but not actually doing any of them!

FrustratedSycamoresRocks · 15/05/2013 10:32

Ow ow owwwwwwwwww!!!! Waters broken. Drip in. Contractions hurt. I want my epidural.

Jojobump1986 · 15/05/2013 10:46

Grin Sounds good Frus! How far apart are they? Have they agreed to an epidural soon or are they making you wait until they think you really need it?

I do love a live birth thread!

Jojobump1986 · 15/05/2013 10:47

Did they manage to get him into a better position?

Lorelei353 · 15/05/2013 11:06

Wow it's all actually happening! Go Frus

Librarina · 15/05/2013 11:38

Gosh... One of us is actually having a real baby!

Jojobump1986 · 15/05/2013 12:26

I hope we all are Lib! Unless you're faking the whole thing & buying a reborn doll! Wink

How's it going Frus? Got your epidural yet?

bringonthetrumpets · 15/05/2013 12:48

Wow! A lot of action from this morning. It stinks being 6 hrs behind you guys.

kitty how are you feeling with the symptoms and prospect of this happening quickly for you as well?

Odd that they won't let mums use balls during an induction over there. Even while all tethered up to the drip mums should have enough space to move around (which now sounds like Frus is probably enjoying her epidural so that's not really applicable). You gotta fight for your right to the birth ball ladies!

Sorry to hear you didn't have great sleep last night Jo. Sad are you able to get a nap in when DS naps today? (I got a telling off by the midwives last night for not napping Hmm ).

Well, I'll be obsessively checking this thread today!

Ah sorry I keep forgetting to actually write something.

Have epidural. Aahh sigh. All hooked up being monitored. No idea how far apart contractions are.
Babe is still happy, and heartbeat strong.

They didn't have to move him much in the end as he moved himself, they just had to hold him their to break my waters. Omg seriously epic amount! And my goodness I have feet, and knees, and a overgrown fanjo!

Jojobump1986 · 15/05/2013 13:41

Grin Glad everything's going well Frus!

FrustratedSycamoresRocks · 15/05/2013 14:03

Ooh I had a funny 5 and fainted. Feel much better after a room full of dishy young doctors oxygen.

bringonthetrumpets · 15/05/2013 14:12

Hahaha frus! Hot docs make everything ok.

kittykatsforever · 15/05/2013 14:18

Lol at overgrown fanjo I think we are all with you there sister glad your hooked up, god I love an epidural Grin aslong as you and baby are happy now doesn't matter what's going on hey
Just had mw app, all ok not really anything new just have to await the bile results although last weeks were 1set out on the liver function this weeks are 3 sets out, I guess it could be a possibility to be next but I don't like to pre emt anything now as you can see anything can happen at any time, I was 3/5 engaged would like it to be more but still I guess wouldn't mean labour was any closer just makes you feel better lol

Jojobump1986 · 15/05/2013 17:11

When do you get the results back kitty?

How's it going Frus? I've got a meeting between 8 & 9.30 so it'd be good if you could avoid doing anything exciting then - I don't want to miss anything! Wink

kittykatsforever · 15/05/2013 17:27

I think we will be forgotten now for a while while she pushes that monkey out then gets all filled up on love looking at him Grin
I get mine in the next few days, they usually take 3/4 days to come back unless things start heating up naturally fx ( 38wks today) allready feel overdue Wink

FrustratedSycamoresRocks · 15/05/2013 18:30

Woo. baby snuggles.
That was the least painful birth I've had.

Jojobump1986 · 15/05/2013 18:40
