Yes, do! Grin Thank you for sharing your birth story - sounds like you've been through the mill but very well done.

Have been having contractions for a couple of hours so am watching the election coverage bouncing on my ball. I hope this is it!

Justyouwaitandsee · 08/05/2015 05:25

Ohh good luck piglet - fingers crossed for you! xx

gingerfluffball · 08/05/2015 05:27

Piglet I'm doing exactly the same thing minus the contractions Grin sending good thoughts to you!

Sorry missed lots of replies while typing that epic. Congrats again blondie - Edward is a lovely name and you already know I am in awe of your experience! Was that 5hrs all clased as second stage then? Or are you including time from when the pains started at home?

Keep bouncing piglet, sending good labour vibes your way

Wow just what an amazing story

bradders85 · 08/05/2015 06:56

I've commented on fb already but congratulations again on the new arrivals. good to read your story too just I'm still to write up my birth story but it's my plan to finally do it today...it all happened in 4 and a half hours for me so won't be much to write it happened so fast! Smile George currently snoozing after guzzling his milk!

Welcome, Edward, good name - Blondie! Still agog at your quick labour. Where can I order one like that?!

Great birth story, Just. You sound so exhilarated and powerful, it's great. Esme's a beautiful name.

Congratulations, again, to you both.

piglet good luck, hope we have some more babies this weekend!!

aberjen · 08/05/2015 09:10

Good luck piglet

39+2 now, a full week further than I went with DD. Really thought baby would be here by now! Have been taking it v easy last few days as DD's godmother, our first choice for childcare, was away. But she's back now so today will be spent generally overdoing it in the hopes that it gets something moving!! It's DD's birthday on Monday, so half expecting her present to be a new baby at this rate...

leanne963 · 08/05/2015 09:25

Aww just thanks for typing all that up was lovely to read!! So happy for you that it was an overall positive experience! :)

So many babies are coming fast now!!! I'm scared I'm going to be sat twiddling my thumbs in this tread all alone haha!!

Sleep is pretty non existent now, turning over in bed just makes my stomach go rock solid and crampy! Oh to sleep on my belly again haha!

leanne963 · 08/05/2015 09:26

Oooh piglet bounce bounce bounce!!!! :)

Chookford · 08/05/2015 09:32

leanne don't worry I'm sure I will be still pregnant going into June like I was with my dd!! Booooooo

leanne963 · 08/05/2015 09:45

Sods law I will go over after saying all along i think I am gonna be early haha! I've jinxed it!! chook

Threesoundslikealot · 08/05/2015 11:11

Lovely birth story, Just!

No worries about being alone on here. My twinges have died down. 39+6 today and I've gone beyond my due date both other times so definitely still on here for a while!

mumxof3x · 08/05/2015 11:25

Leanne I used to say this time that baby would be here before may but then I used to back track and go watch me go over after all of this lol just incase I did go over. But I thought deep down id give birth at the very end of april x

leanne963 · 08/05/2015 11:33

mum ha, i just have a feeling i was gonna be early, well i still am only 37+5 so even if i give birth in a week that is technically early :P

mumxof3x · 08/05/2015 12:14

Exactly lol. I always referred to ds3 2 week early. Its still early in terms of your edd.x

Apple, anymore signs? X

applecore0317 · 08/05/2015 12:20

No, just the tightenings and small amounts of brown blood... will see what the weekend brings :) Midwife on Monday

yep leanne still time to pop her out to be early :D

Sorry the twinges have gone away three

mumxof3x · 08/05/2015 12:54

Leo in his chair this morning having a snooze :) x

Ohh still bits of things going off though apple :) x

Aww mum he looks sooo tiny and cute in that chair!

piglet any update?

applecore0317 · 08/05/2015 13:16

Awww he's so tiny and so cute!!! Smile

Chookford · 08/05/2015 13:28

Awwwww mum he is adorable!!

Had midwife this morning who is convinced I will have this baby within the next week or so! God I hope she's right as otherwise my induction is booked in for 5/6 and my dd's bday is 6/6 so I'm praying this one won't go that overdue!! Confused
