Morning everyone.
Had a rough night with strong periody type cramps regularly about every 50 minutes or so which kept me awake most of the night but stopped at around 6 am!
Just back from hospital. Had a sweep, cervix was open but still quite posterior. It was a lot more painful this time than it was with DS1 but then is 4 days earlier than it was that time.
Suggested I ask my mw to do another sweep in 7 days if this one doesn't work, then have to go in for monitoring on Wed 14th and they have booked a possible induction date for 15th. Not sure if I will go for the induction, but thought it wouldn't harm to let them go ahead and book the appointment. Sure I will be well fed up by then as is 40+11!
Am pretty uncomfortable now, twingy and niggly sharp pains, also had quite bad spd type pain before I went that is absolutely killer since the internal. Not really expecting much to happen though. Felt really when DH had to go straight to work after the appointment, feels like its going to be such a long day.
DS1 was in tears this morning as he was so tired when we got him up to go to Grandmas. Lord only knows how we are going to get him to school tomorrow. He seems really run down and has been asking to go to bed by 6.30 in the evening then not getting up till 8 or 9 o'clock in the morning. Really hope he doesn't come down with something just as its time for him to go back to school, but at least it would explain the vile behaviour we've had off him in the last few days.
