morning
Odd that no ones around , hope you are all ok?????
COngrats 2labs , hiya Fraser, cool name.
WEllllllllllll I came home at midnight from hospital, as had to wait to see registrar.and a long old night it was , went in at 6:30 , straight onto moniter ,& ended up on it for 3hrs on and off, on and off, they werent happy with the reading and thought baba was being very erratic, which the midiwfe put down to me being dehydtrated ,so had to get through a jug of water !!!Had a lovely speculum examination and she couldnt find much except loads of mucus . Lots of surges were showing up on the monitor and they only got stronger and stronger each time. The midwife with the speculum said it can help jump start things. They changed shifts and the next midwife thought that may be it was just a bit of show , so she did a full on internal and found I was 2cm dialated and all thinned out & ready to go YIPPPEEEEEEEEE. Registrar came and said that may be fore waters are very very slightly coming ,but babys head is stemming it for now. He said I could stay if I wanted as am most deffo in early labour, but I said Id rather come home for a while and relax. They all seem surprised how Im coping with surges& keep asking all about pain relief , but I definately think the hypnobirthing is helping immensly as some of it was at the top of the chart and quite prolonged.
The funniest thing was the midwife gave me a hug on the way out and said , go home have a nice bath , a hot chocolate and nice full on sex session !!!!!!!!!!PMSL.
Was up quite a lot during the night , but nothing has got estabelished, soooo Ive been on walkabout round the house since 6:30, as cant seem to get a pattern to things , hopefully it will get there soon.
