I don't know what I'm doing but seen the message saying another thread was needed. I don't know what to add to this but though.

Erm. I'm Derek btw. 35 week on Thursday and due 6/10/16

Sorry but I have no idea what I'm doing 😂

I did with DC3! I went to bed feeling nothing. Woke up like Bam! Full on contractions.

My best birth so far.

Fraggleface · 09/10/2016 08:48

Sounds great. This whole stringing it out for days weeks thing sucks. And I'll probably still have to be induced...

Afreshstartplease · 09/10/2016 08:51

It was great, I had little drugs so was clear headed and I'd had a good nights sleep right before so I wasn't tired.
My other two births I don't remember large chunks but my memory of 3 is clear and lovely , and I didn't tell anyone to get the fuck off me that time. I was more in control.

Fraggleface · 09/10/2016 09:02

Shame. I imagine telling some smug midwife to fuck off is probably one of the more enjoyable parts of labour. Grin

Afreshstartplease · 09/10/2016 09:04

Luckily they're the kind of people you don't have to see again lol

DerekSprechenZeDick · 09/10/2016 10:37

40 + 3 with the same dull back ache.

I'm heading to town alone to entice labour

Good luck Derek. Period pains and back ache have stopped here.

LillianFullStop · 09/10/2016 12:32

Nothing at all from me today at the 38w mark - oh except for a nosebleed yesterday but that's not really a labour symptom.

NovemberInDailyFailLand · 09/10/2016 13:32

39 weeks now, braved the supermarket with DC1 but no luck.

Afreshstartplease · 09/10/2016 13:46

I'm really fucking uncomfortable just with pressure downstairs, cannot find a comfy way to sit at all

Afreshstartplease · 09/10/2016 15:08

Pressure has shifted and been replaced by constant pain in right arse cheek Envy least the pressure could have been doing something this is just mean. Baby clearly can't get out of my arse cheek!

DerekSprechenZeDick · 09/10/2016 16:05

I'm on maternity assessment ward. I rang and explained pains and how she isn't moving as much and they wanted me straight in.

Guess who's doing flips and star jumps now I'm here...

Good luck, Derek! Glad she is moving again!

Busy still being irritable. I have made it clear nobody should approach.

DerekSprechenZeDick · 09/10/2016 17:11

Deciding whether to induce me or not. Cross everything that they will

Hope all is ok Derek.

I need this baby to stay put for a while as ds has impetigo, so will be contagious for a few days. Knowing my luck this means I'll go into labour imminently. I've been having on/off cramps for days, but no real sign of progress.

DerekSprechenZeDick · 09/10/2016 17:37

They are putting me on the ward and I'll have my waters broke. It's happening!

Hurrah for the imminent eviction! Courage, et bonne chance! :)

Afreshstartplease · 09/10/2016 18:21

More bloody show here! You may have to share your eviction date Derek!

LillianFullStop · 09/10/2016 18:34

Omg good luck derek!!! And fresh looks like you're on your way too!

Nothing here but daggers and what feels like a heavy pressure down below.

Afreshstartplease · 09/10/2016 18:35

I had pressure alot earlier today Lillian it was horrible

SchnitzelvonKrummsverylowtum · 09/10/2016 19:34

Good luck Derek!

Hope things are moving for you too hope fresh.

I've never been this pregnant - DS had been born by this stage. I really hope I don't go overdue this time!

Figgygal · 09/10/2016 19:56

Good luck both!!

Dizzy08 · 09/10/2016 20:16

Good luck Derek! Very jealous! Hope things are progressing for you too Fresh

I've just got more daggers.. so I'm going for another bath!! Never been so clean!

Afreshstartplease · 09/10/2016 20:19

Dizzy I've been in the bath loads too! Had a fairly strong pain at just after 8 but nothing since....

I'm really tired, I know I should go sleep but my mind doesn't want too
