[Mrsjaffabiffa]

Morning......

Got to pop out quickly. MrsJB if there are any developments please can you text me

GO SOH!

This is so exciting! People are having babies and making soup - its all going on!!! I have a ridiculous smile on my face!!!

And I've eaten two lollipops, bran flakes and toast if we're all counting.

I will text you AM.

Midwife arrived.

Will give you more information as soon as we have it.

OOOHHHH SOH GO GIRL!!!! Hello Mr Soh!!, hope the pants arrived in time lol!!!! Have to go to town, dont want to leave in case of news - AM text me if theres news plsssss

Don't think you'll miss anything TYG.

SOH is 2-3 cm Dilated. We're now running a book on when Mathilda will arrive, I've got dibs on 12O'Clock.

How is she bearing up?
Im having 10 o clock then...

Go SOH! So excited for you and Mr SOH, it's like Living TV on here but for real!

I am having such a crappy day, and the SOH family are really cheering me up! SOH, should you name her Matilda Antonia after Mr Blair and his resignation right as you are in the middle of labour?? ducks to avoid flying poo sieve sent over by mid-contraction SOH

Hmmmm... betting on timing, well, I have to go for lunch with DH later (of all the days for him to suggest it!!) and then pop into work and then it's swimming lessons for ds. I promised ds that he can have his tea at the leisure centre, so... I'll be back about 5.30-6.00pm, and SOH will HAVE to hold on until I return - how about 7pm for me, please?

Popping in from the June thread to say....go for it SOH...how very exciting.

Lots of positve thoughts going your way Mr and Mrs SOH. Remember that just because it's taken x number of hours to get to 3cm, doesn't mean that it will take the same number of hours to get to 6, if you see what I mean. Every contraction is one contraction closer to meetng Mathilda.

Off to get some pins stuck in me. Back in a bit.

Great idea ITS, Mathilda Antonia

Please can Mathilda come before 3.30 this afternoon, because I have to go to the hospital at 4 for my c-section tomorrow

MrSOH, keep up the good work, we all have a lot of admiration for you, you set the husband standards very high you know. Is it true your brother can do the splits

I have to g out in a little while too..bugger..wont be bbackm till about 5..TYG if you are back before then and anything has happened is there any chance of texting me?
Good luck being a pin cushion...

And best of luck to the SOH's..x

No, I agree. keep going strong SOH, each one is doing something good.

On times, I'm going for 8pm.

Cam if you have a mobile and want me to keep you up to date. e-mail me your number and I'll text you if you have to go before. Good Luck for tommorow. My e-mail is cathalix 2004 at hotmail dot co dot uk.

Come on SOH - we're all here for you! It'll all be worth it in the end.xx

Cam - on a selfish note, can you try and post before I go in next Thurs and tell me how your c-section goes? I'm slightly nervous that nobody has given me any positive vibes but I don't know what to expect!

Just making lunch and then must do my hair - its all so inconvenient when people are giving birth!!!

MrsJB, would you, you honey? I'm emailing you now..I can't bear waiting to know until I am back

soup making in progress.....only had salad onions/spring onions so had to improvise. chucked in a carrot too that i found lurking. i might even enjoy this cooking lark!?
not as much as "cooking" my baby tho. lots of wiggling about this morning. still enjoying being pregnant but looking fwd to actually meeting baby now. 13 days til due day....

come on matilda mr and mrs SOH cant wait to meet you too! im gonna say 9pm...
keep up that back massage mr SOH!!!

Pink, I have had 2 emergency sections, the first time was a bit scary, the second time was really good, and this time, dare I say it, I am looking forward to it! If its an elective it is very calm, you can listen to your own cd, dh is with you in scrubs and it takes about 5 mins to get the baby out and about 45 to stitch you up again, so you are totally engrossed in looking at your gorgeous bundle of joy while they stitch you up. My recovery was super fast, though I stayed in for 5 days each time, this time I will stay only for 3 days. In fact I went back to Africa after 10 days with both of my babies, 6/8 hour plane journeys, with no problems, not advisable, though I'm sure you won't even be considering it

MrsJB its bouncing my email back! Can you reach me on stephensonkuk at yahoo dot co dot uk?

I'll try no cam, let me know if you get it.

sent...

Got it!
