Howdy!
OK - we're home! I have a comedian for a child, he thought it was HILARIOUS to sleep right through the monitoring until the last 5 minutes when he then woke up and danced like a crazy.
So movements are all fine! The good thing about having to go to be monitored is that they can see from the monitor that I AM contracting, just not very violently. So things are progressing, just rather in a laid back fashion. They have booked me a scan tomorrow though as they want to just have a look and check there's no sinister reason why he's being a bit lethargic. I'm sure it's fine and it'll be nice to see him again.
I'm booked back in for another sweep on Friday if nothings happened. Got a bit of blood following sweep which is apparently perfectly normal - not enough for plug, just result of the disturbance. For anyone worried about a sweep it didn't hurt, it was just a bit stretchy. She couldn't reach my cervix more than just a finger though so it would seem baby's just not ready yet.
I've got an induction date of 26th but I am determined I'm going naturally before that.
Fleur - pussssssh!!! waves pom poms She's not been back on so I presume it's the real deal!
Oh and the midwife at hospital took me aside and whispered conspiratorily "go home, have lots of sex and run up and down the stairs sideways". 
I thought that was hilarious!
Dh is at work so I'm going to concentrate on the stairs tonight - bit tricky due to stairs being on a curve but I'll give it a go!
bat I've never been made to feel I'm wasting peoples time with checking movements - please don't ever feel like people are going to think you're silly. It's so important to get checked. Half an hour and your mind's at rest!
My dh didn't believe me when I said midwife basically puts whole fist up me. He thought I was exaggerating.
gaggia you just made me snort!!! Ha ha haa! 9 inches - serious?? I thought mine was good! That's why he keeps breaking me.
God - rich people and Caitlyn Jenner? Do these guys not have better things to talk about like 9 inch cocks Our July thread is now really nice actually, everyone's being lovely now that the babies are arriving. It's not a patch on here though as there's very little humour, probably just because there are so many of them.
Hope you're ok jelly, look after yourself.
honey I don't eat bacon but oh my god ketchup every time!
By the way I loved that double post - point well made ;) Honey loves ends...!
purple I didn't take ball in car to hospital for that very reason - how the heck do you carry them!?!?! :D We had to take the hospital stuff in case I got kept in.
I'm not going to fit mummy tonight. My friends who were both in front and behind me in dates all popped in the last week and so I'd be the furthest along by 5 weeks. Dont fancy standing in the 'about to explode' corner on my tod! Plus my tummy hurts quite a lot.
Anyone on here who's had a sweep - did you ache for a bit afterwards? It's a bit period painy.
