Rat smackers extraordinaire enjoying a festive mince pies and brooking no argument that there will be the occasional sneeze birth before the end of 2013

[SweetieTime]

Ladies I think we need a new festive thread to take us through to the end of the year. And as it will be me to sneeze next –how did it get around to my turn so quickly???-- I thought I would do the honours.

Trix, best of luck for tomorrow! Will be thinking of you and brooking lots :)

too we have names although sometimes I still have doubts, I can be very indecisive! can't wait to hear your scan news not long now.
I'm all comfy in my pjs on the sofa with dh rubbing my feet.

I just wanted to wish Trix lots of brooking luck tomorrow! can't wait to hear how you get on and hope it's a quick sneeze after induction! So exciting!!

hey all, sorry, have a few weeks of interesting events, I will update but just popping in to wish trix good luck for tomorrow!!

rolling away now (beached whale stylee)!!

Trix I am so excited for you, I really hope you get a good nights sleep and that everything goes quickly and smoothly for you tomorrow.

Good luck Trix I was induced for medical reasons at 38 weeks and it was a fab birth. It's funny isn't it settling down for the evening knowing that the baby will be here tomorrow, or the next day by the latest!

Cannot wait to hear your announcement and read your birth story. Your newborn is almost here. I am so very happy for you.

Brooking for you today Trix, I'm sure it'll go fine and you'll be home by lunchtime with your beautiful baby

Brooking hard for you Trix!! There's going to be an awful lot of hitting the refresh button today

spicy sausage pasta with avocado & tomato bruschetta anyone?

Oh Solars I'm addicted to avocado!! Yes please!

Oh solars not a great meal to serve up to those with heart burn. Any non spicy foods?

I am exhausted today. Ds didn't sleep great last night, was up 4 times how's everyone else?

no happenings here yet ladies

Nothing at all? Have you had your pessary? Thinking of you xx

had the pessary at around 10.30. a few bump tightenings but that's it. I'm not expecting anything until tomorrow now.

It can all change very quickly you know, plus you never know what might be going on 'in there' could be that this pessary is paving the way for a super start after your next pessary! Brooking for you xx

Brooking hard Trix. Hope you're not too bored yet.

Go, Trix, go! When will they give you next pessary/other drugs to get things moving?

By my reckoning any time now Too, I was told I could have up to 3 pessaries 6-8 hours apart :)

Hope you're ok Trix

thinking of you Trix try to keep calm and eyes on the prize my lovely

they will give me a new pessary tomorrow I think. they leave them in for 24 hours. it seems to be different if its not your first baby though. I think you can have pessaries closer together like boo says. its just a waiting game really. thank you all for your kind messages of support.

Trix apparently, we were told at our antenatal class that a lot of babies arrive during the night! something to do with when we were cave people and it was safer to give birth during the night due to predators not lurking around so much!! So I'm hoping things will start kicking off overnight for you!! xx

Well done so far Trix, it may seem to be taking a while, but you're a lot closer to meeting baby now x
