Due April 2009 - Chapter 24: Pulling the Plug on the April babies!!!

[BabyBolat]

Here we go again....

There had better be a baby by the end of this thread. I know that gives us about 2 days & we're not even in April yet, but I'm getting so bored waiting!

oh well done bb!! sorry i did another one as i came on and panicked!! lol

Oh Springy sorry but with the contractions, show and now waters, I am pretty sure this is it - and I even promise to keep my cervix dust away!!!

WHAT WATERS!!!! springy whats going on.
ok going to catch up .....

Bleu - Pizza

Springy - I'm out, my last one was a fluke, I didn't even notice.

Springy, you know if I could I would have a sniff for you

It'd better be, but I'm really not convinced.

I'm seriously just sitting here with a face. I'm very, very doubtful.

I have, however, allowed myself the massive luxury of a taxi just in case. It'll be here in 5 minutes or so, so I'll have to be off in a sec

I'm v. confused. Is this the right thread?

Quite excited Springy!

i must go paint the cotbed or crib depending on your use of the language.
And I have to figure out supper. I think I'll give Dh a call and see what's going on.

I'll be back on later to catch up...

I'm off! Loves ya! xx Will text

Oh and I did actually wee the bed a few days ago whilst sitting upright and laughing..and I thought my pelvic floor muscles were quite good...!

How much water are we talking about - I am at home ALL day so text me when you have an update smelly pants!

MM LOL you are so funny!

LuLu yes, tis right - me and nutty are starting a new game as to who can start the most threads - no nutty is just too efficient!

Can someone catch me up please!! i just went back to do catch up post but cant type one cos the thread its dead and i'm all sleepy anf fuzzy brained

sorry

half asleep emoticon

Oh I really hope Springy has her baby - maybe she will kick start us all off!!!

BB - is springy in actuall labour??? OMG!!! have her waters gone????

Ok springy had more blood last night and has just leaked a little, she phoned MW triage and they have told her to go in as they are a bit concerned about the blood lasting so long and now she may have started to lose her waters (yay)

Kali is fully engaged yay!

Boff's DH is poorly with very high bp so we are all worried for BoffinMum and BoffinDad

MM wet herself in bed

Sorry if I missed anything off!

Woah, got very lost in the threads there for a moment.

Boff - a calcium-blocker is a reasonable second-line choice (though still not convinced it follows current guidelines ). How long ago did he start the beta-blockers? Did they not have any effect at all or did he have side-effects? Have you tried doing some home measurements to rule out white-coat?

With calcium-channel blockers, it is worth noting headaches are one of the side-effects (though should be transient)! Also flushing and possibly leg swelling.

More patient-focussed website here

Springy is such a queue-jumper!!!

Thanks BB you're a gem xxx

BB - i did catch that everything is ok with you and dh now, really pleased ((hugs))

Kali - hooray for engagement!!

Boffin - big ((hugs)) to you and dh xx

I know Juw - if it wasn't for the lack of action on this thread as a whole then I would be very grumpy!!!

..and what's WORSE, DH came in to see me attempting to change the sheets in a disctinctly hippo-like manner and was really concerned and nice about it instead of laughing at me like usual...stupid husbands
