If u have a birthing ball u could try bouncing on that hayle?

Dh is banishing me to the bedroom to watch midwives on the iPad cos 'it's not his kind of thing' meanie x

PseudoBadger · 23/09/2013 20:41

You might get gushes as more is produced, or as you move around. Or could be forewaters rather than hind waters. Whatever it is I hope it's it for you!!!

Wickedgirl · 23/09/2013 20:41

This thread is going to move super fast with everyone posting and trying to find out what's happening

Shirehobbit · 23/09/2013 20:41

Sending you lots of positive vibes, Hayle - try not to stress, if possible. X

MotherOfNations · 23/09/2013 20:43

Very exciting Hayle.

Yes legally well remembered. 10mm cystic hygroma.

Clapham I felt so isolated when I was given a private room with dc3. A women I spoke to in the waiting room at my last appointment who's having her c-section 2 days before me said it's hospital policy to give private rooms to those having planned sections. I'm going to ask if they can make an exception in my case. If Eliana does spend a lot of time in NICU I don't want to be stuck in a room on my own with nobody to talk to.

Good luck hayle! xxx

Pinkforboys · 23/09/2013 20:51

Ooh hayle good luck! Hope it is your waters and all goes speedily now.
You've certainly put the fear into me- I'd better get those bags packed!!

Smitten1981 · 23/09/2013 20:57

Good luck Hayle. Wow this is all really happening now. Scary!

First day working from home today. Was pretty boring and I felt like I couldn't leave the house in case I got an email I had to reply to.

We're getting the dog spayed on Friday, I'm trying to keep myself under control but I feel desperately sad that something awful might happen and she might die. I'm making DH take her in on the way to work as I feel sick just thinking about leaving her there and her being scared Hmm

Feel free to virtual slap me and tell me I'm being a wuss.

cherrycherry41 · 23/09/2013 20:58

Good luck Hayle!
Hope it is your waters! Grin

HotSoupDumpling · 23/09/2013 21:02

Smitten - not a wuss. Your dog is lucky that it has lots of love!

Hayle, good luck!! So exciting!

Right, Midwives is on.

claphammama · 23/09/2013 21:02

hayle how exciting!! Grin Grin I really hope this is it. Your experience sounds so similar to mine. I also had this urge to go to the toilet, felt like something was stuck there and then my plug came out. And I didn't have a gush, just constant feeling of wetness down there. Not enough to soak through the pad but just a bit wet all the time. They finally told me to come in after 7-8 hours and confirmed it was my waters Smile I also had very mild period pains at the same time - nothing special so wasn't sure what they were. Same as you. Fingers crossed! Will be refreshing the entire evening and possibly night

MoN I loved the privacy and peace and quiet. I was so exhausted after my labour, just wanted to stare at DS and sleep, nothing else

shire thanks for the reminder! Had no idea The Midwives were on tonight

MrsHoratioNelson · 23/09/2013 21:04

DH is obviously feeling very brave tonight - well, he is sitting the other side of the room - he has just suggested that the reason I found Tom Kerridge so very fucking irritating was that I might be a "bit touchy" Hmm Grin

I suppose I was really rather rude about him (Tom Kerridge that is, not DH...)

Haylebop12 · 23/09/2013 21:16

clapham sound so similar! I've called triage as I have soaked through and it's still coming... She said to pop down to get checked out as I'm pretty sure I'm contracting too although pain is ok and a good 5-6 mins apart.

Told her I would pop in after watching the midwives! But really want a shower and a quick tidy up tbh!

Wickedgirl · 23/09/2013 21:18

I like Tom kerridge.......what don't you like about him mrs h?

Pinkforboys · 23/09/2013 21:18

I know you'll all be watching Midwives whilst I'm avoiding it with my head in the sand but could someone explain Netflix to me? I've got Virgin Media so can watch things on demand but the TV series are limited. Can you watch anything you want on Netflix? Is it worth the extra ££??

Smitten1981 · 23/09/2013 21:20

Pink - get Netflix, I think it's free for the first month and you can watch anything on there. It's all included in the price.

It's super easy to cancel if you don't like it too. You can cancel any time.

That mooing woman on midwives just petrified me. Confused

Natalieand · 23/09/2013 21:21

Eeeeeek hayle I'm so jelous. I'm not a 13/10 but I'm a 14/10 and dh can't get it into his head it could happen any time!!

Make sure u take a phone charger we need updates lol

Natalieand · 23/09/2013 21:24

Never mind the woman mooing smitten check out the woman having her booking appt with that poor student midwife ... Jeeese

JellyCurls · 23/09/2013 21:25

Good luck Hayle but do not approve of your queue jumping.

Flyer747 · 23/09/2013 21:25

I know Nat I thought the same but didn't like to say Grin

PseudoBadger · 23/09/2013 21:28

I'm watching Silver Linings Playbook and recording Midwives....

favellio · 23/09/2013 21:31

good luck Hayle!!! keep us posted x

MrsHoratioNelson · 23/09/2013 21:31

wicked well it started with his accent which sounds a bit over-egged to me (I live in the West Country and its just sounds a bit false somehow). Plus he said something stupid about simple food with friends and then pulled out a foam canister for his plum fool and then I made a very rude comment that may have suggested I was waddling less at 38 weeks pregnant Blush

I think, in essence, the thing I don't like about him is that he is on the telly and I am 38 weeks pregnant Blush Blush

notsoold · 23/09/2013 22:03
