Big big congratulations @teainbed ❤️❤️❤️

Congratulations @teainbed

@teainbed Congratulations! 🎉💙💙💙💙

Congratulations tea - wonderful wonderful news!!! And as much detail as you can face!

yellow my best friend was induced with first baby at 39w due to pre eclampsia. Had pessary etc but then needed drip. She described it as 'fine'!!! Just had gas & air. Think she went from drip to delivery in about 6hrs. Was home 24hrs later. She said she wants to be induced again this pregnancy as she liked knowing when things would start!

Hoping if I'm induced it will be a similar experience!!!

Congratulations tea!!!!!!!

Congratulations @teainbed that's lovely news and a good size

Thank you everyone for your induction stories... that makes me feel a lot better!

Wonderful news tea so happy to hear of your safe and happy arrival. If you have any spare moments do keep us up to date with how you all are

Bizarre how different trusts have different views on water birth too. I was labouring in the pool with a drip in, but it wasn't the induction drip. No issues with me getting it wet. They won't let you labour in water if you're induced here though, as induction means labour ward not MLU and there are no pools in MLU (plus I think they want the continual monitoring and they didn't have the remote wireless thingy last time I was in).

Peach 'ring of fire' hilarious! Is that a contender for name of next thread?!

teainbed that is WONDERFUL. Been thinking of you today. So happy you have your little boy in your arms.

@PeachIcedT @dreamofhungarianlanterns one more vote from me on "ring of fire" as the new thread title 😆

Congratulations teainbed!!!! Wonderful news. Congratulations on your beautiful boy.

Congratulations teainbed ! Not a bad size for being a few weeks early either...!
( your due date was only three days before mine )

@beanturnipandspud I agree moving house past 30 weeks seems complex, although I'm reliably informed it happens all the time! I guess it's one of the reasons they give us our own notes!

@yellowismyfavourite That's a bit of a shock, hopefully it's all straightforward, it's exciting to think you might meet your baby in just a few days!

@teainbed many congratulations that's wonderful news, hope you're enjoying your newborn cuddles and that you get home as soon as possible

@teainbed that's fantastic news! Congratulations ! I hope you feel like superwoman now xxx I can't wait to hear the name and see a photo! Did you know the gender in advance or was it all a surprise? We will let you fall in love with your baby boy even more

Sipper - your friends induction story sounds just like mine! I'm also hoping for an induction again this time around.
Yellow -Pessary broke my waters evening before, drip for contractions following day. Drip to baby in around 6-8ish hours, and discharged within 24 hrs of birth, on a bank holiday.

Tea! - Congratulations!! Do share a pic when you have one? Hope you're feeling euphoric! And that's a good size for an 'early' baby! Well done! x

Hope the rest of you are enjoying your weekends. x

@teainbed huge congratulations! Was wondering today if you'd be all snuggled up already, so pleased for you! And yes please to pictures of your gorgeous new arrival when you feel rested!

Congrats @teainbed how exciting our first thread baby

Congratulations teainbed!!

Awwww @teainbed I'm so pleased for you. Well done!!! ❤️

yellowismyfavourite no experience of induction but good luck! Must have been a bit of a surprise to say the least at the scan.

Congratulations tea amazing news!!
