[nickelbabe]

Just getting it ready....

Noone post until it's full, right!!

When was the last update from Nickel's friend?has been a while....
Hoping for an update ASAP Nickel's friends.

I've only got a chance to log on now, having thought about Nickel and her babe all day (especially whenever I caught a glance of that beautiful moon), and sent good vibes, to join with the others sending theirs, and I would also like to thank you Nickel for letting us be with you and your DH on this wonderful journey to meet your ikkle nickelbabe!

Hours and hours ago MrsHoolie, which is why we think she may have been admitted to hospital.

I'm here.

I'm hoping that the lack of posting means that nickel has been fabulous and is snuggling with mrnickel and isbn.

ooooh maryz, do tell

Carol has been teaching us to deep breathe all night. Very therapeutic! I want her to move in with me.

Oh I see. Fingers crossed all is well.
I was transferred with my 1st baby,took me two days to get to 4cm. Nickel got to 3cm without being in labour!

i think I'm going to have to go to bed but I know Nickel will have her baby the second I go!

Yep I was transferred and 2 days with 1st as well. Mind you, all four were horrendously long. Shortest was 11 hours

Really, really, really hoping she has her baby with her now. A long labour is a nightmare.

Lucky I am working from home today, wrestling with appalling document. Fingers crossed for news.

This thread had made me soooo broody and desperately want a homebirth next time ( 1st labour 6 hours, 2nd 3 hours - don't think I'd make it to hosp in time for no 3!)

Go nickel! Where's that gorgeous baby

Oh do hope she's ok and too busy snuggling to post

Excellent that you can take over saffron

Yep, birthday breakfast for DD, kids at school and on duty here at the computer.

must go to bed, will check in again in the morning. Love and hugs NIckel. xxx

Night all.

Hope all is well.

another one off to bed i'm afraid.
heres hoping nickel and mr nickel are cuddling their gorgeous baby nickel
and if not -
take it easy lovely lady, take it easy.
you're doing amazing and it will all be worth it .

That's good. Need to keep this bumped for nickel's friend to post updates

Why are babies never born during the day when everyone is awake and ready for them? Do they deliberately wait until the middle of the night? Is it wired into their DNA?

Are babies in Australia only born in the middle of the night Australia time?

Australia checking in - how's it going? I really thought that ISBN would be here by the time I woke up but obviously not!

Glad MNHQ have extended this thread though :)

I'm also off to bed but wil check in first thing.

Sending you strength nickel if you are still labouring, you have been uppermost in my thoughts all day and i'm so sorry to have missed the actual birth.

Hey thumbwitch (gibberish here)

MNHQ are lovely and accommodating.

Ok thumbwitch it is you and me now - did you have anything planned for a Monday morning?

This reminds me of my nephews arrival. Long labour. Finally at 2am text to say emergncy c-section - and then nothing! By 9am we were all frantic. Then bil rang. Turned out they did the c-section, sorted out baby and sil then poor bil (who had been up for two days) fell asleep. He got back to the ward at 8.45am to be told by the midwives to ring family NOW

lurking, lurking....god this thread is making me broody...fingers crossed all is progressing as you would want
