AmazingBouncingFerret · 12/12/2009 15:05

Wow millie. Everyone was hoping my waters would break on my works do so we had an excuse to scarper without paying!! No such luck.
Whats EP Oil? and where can I buy some? lol

Had my midwife appt an hour ago, no change still 4/5ths, still "all baby" etc... Im seeing consultant on Tues so I think I will have a sweep then.

GoldenSnitch · 12/12/2009 15:32

I'm guessing EP Oil is Evening Primrose?

madmissy · 12/12/2009 15:42

Wow millie!
ABF i've been taking some Tabs orally and 2 in cervix,

Feeling odd today. Still getting the cramping bit more brown discharge but nothing to get to excited about. Backache etc. Loads of pressure where he's so far down now. Spoke to midwife this morn she reckons from how things were other day something will happen before tues induction... We will see lol.

Just at my mums at moment been putting up her tree with dd's but feeling need to go home now.

AmazingBouncingFerret · 12/12/2009 16:12

Ohhh having a bit of a dumb moment there...

madmissy · 12/12/2009 17:31

lol no prob

try it anything worth a go ay!

Milliemuffin · 12/12/2009 17:31

Yep, evening primrose.

Still nothing. DS is at his nan's and I'm really missing him. He'll be fine staying tonight aswell and then will probably stay at DPs parents tomorrow but I think anymore than that and he might get home sick so really hope something happens asap, really dont want to have to go in

madmissy · 12/12/2009 17:44

grrr have you got any clary sage? perhaps sniff on that? always gets my BH going

Milliemuffin · 12/12/2009 17:50

No, got everything for relaxation (roman chamomile/lavender/mandarin oils), epo and RLT bags and capsules but thats all. I had a 2hr nap and was hoping things might start after that, time to get bouncing I think...

Shimmer · 12/12/2009 20:04

Wow Millie! How exciting. Fingers crossed it all kicks off soon!!

I've had the 'nooooo, still no baby' conversation with about 6 different people (in person/by text/on phone) today!! Getting a bit bored of it now! I mean, really, it's not even due til Tuesday. Surely people shouldn't be allowed to start bugging you constantly and doing the pity face at you until well after DD?!?! Grrrrrrr...

I'm mega emotional today! I'm crying at everything, it's atually quite funny I heard 'Fairytale of New York' for the 1st time this year and even that set me off! I'm soooooo going to be blubbing at XFactor tonight!

madmissy · 12/12/2009 20:10

millie i would stay clear of the relaxing bits you have as that could be delaying labour too... ie the reason they say a bath early can stall things as you become so relaxed...

hope something happens for you!

looks like we will have a few babies along soon with millie, sparkly??, my induction, snitch and hopefully you overdue ladies too!?

shimmer i'm same been so unlike myself today and was on verge of tears earlier sorting dinner

kirriemummy · 12/12/2009 20:11

Am glad to know I'm not the only one soooo very over being pregnant! I'm emptional too, but despite having spent the last 5 months crying at every little thing, I'm now just extremely grumpy at everything - be it Cheryl Cole or my DH not consulting me before deciding what to have for tea! I've been having lots of vague period pains but no physical symptoms if things starting - it's driving me totally nuts! Anyway enough of me moaning - hope everyone else is doing ok.....

madmissy · 12/12/2009 20:17

oh no moan away! i've been grumpy as sin and can't stand to be touched today!

GoldenSnitch · 12/12/2009 20:59

Moan away Kirrie, this is definitely the place to do it

So glad I'm not the only one in a foul mood today! I've been horrible.

So glad DH was here cause I wouldn't have been very good at coping with DS on my own today.

Dreading bed though. I just can't get comfy anymore and it gets me so frustrated

Seems very strange thinking that I might have my baby very soon when there are still so many people above me in the list!!

Good luck to everyone...

Mybox · 12/12/2009 21:06

yes - good luck & best wishes to all xxx

BexJ78 · 12/12/2009 21:08

am having dull period type pains, so am hoping this might be the start of something after my sweep yesterday! i am so over being pregnant. One week overdue already, can't believe it!!

kirriemummy · 12/12/2009 21:13

i know what you mean about bed - it's driving me absolutely mad at the moment! I actually managed to rip a sheet with all my tossing and turning last week. As for grumpiness I am now reaching epic proportions - I have just criticised Robbie Williams on the TV which is something I have not done in nearly 18 years.... I need to get this baby out of me - it's ruining my relationship with my teenage crush!

GoldenSnitch · 12/12/2009 21:39

Just freaked myself out by realising that I may be watching the Strictly final next week from a hospital bed with my daughter in my arms!!!

It won't be the same without a Dominos pizza

kirriemummy · 12/12/2009 22:05

Surely you can order pizza in? What's the NHS coming to ;)

GoldenSnitch · 12/12/2009 22:08

Bah! No point watching it now anyway! The result is a foregone conclusion. No way will Chris beat Ricky.

kirriemummy · 12/12/2009 23:19

I dunno - Chris may be in with a shot, being that he is housewives favorite and all... Its very weird to think that my baby could be here before I find out who's won. That looks unlikely at the moment though!

madmissy · 13/12/2009 08:35

morning girls how are we all today!?

any news from anyone?

i've had a bit more 'show' oh the excitement HAHA and still feeling crampy etc

can't believe i am 39 weeks tomorrow! its flown!! i had dd1 this week going into labour myself.
clinging all hope on my midwife reckoning something will happen before tuesday

millie how you doing?

AmazingBouncingFerret · 13/12/2009 09:22

So right evening primrose capsules... do you just shove them up your fanjo as far as they can go and hope for the best?

Had a horrible morning got up about 6ish to go the loo when I was attacked with the nerve pain mid-wee made me scream out (bet my neighbours love me!) It woke DS up who came running in shouting "mummy im coming, its ok, im here" Which in turn made me cry even more because no 3 year old should be having to do that for their mummy.
Im now stuck in bed unable to walk properly when I wanted to get out and about to try and get labour started.
I feel so crap.

Milliemuffin · 13/12/2009 09:40

Just got back from the hospital as had quite a bloody show when I got up but baby is fine and moving so they've sent me home again.

DS is coming home for a bit later this morning before we take him to DP's parents later this aft so at least I'll get to have a cuddle, assuming nothing happens before then anyway! Just before my dad handed the phone to my mum he said 'they want Lucas back' which was quite amusing, think my dad's really got used to him being there the last 2 days.

Fingers crossed please, really dont want to have to go in tomorrow.

Hope you're all ok and I'm secretly hoping I'm the next arrival on here but hope for all your sakes aswell that things happen soon, the waiting is so hard.

p.s. I just took EPO orally and my waters went the next day.

madmissy · 13/12/2009 09:44

oh abf
what a gorgeous ds tho bless him!!!

yes take some tabs orally and i push 2-3 as far as i bloody can lol must be doing something as did it fri night and cramping increased sat and did last night and had more of a show today so worth a go?

Milliemuffin · 13/12/2009 10:03

ABF - hope you feel better soon xx
