Eek - labour?

Having spent weeks in unproductive false labour I have just woken up to relatively horrible period pain cramps in my back that coincide with the tightenings of the bump.

Hoping this is it (40 + god knows now, too many)

A little bit scared

Sending you a virtual scone - would you like clotted cream and jam with that? :)
What time of day is it for you now? Have you got plenty of time before the proposed induction? Ball and pirate noises should help baby on the way, good luck.

How are you both getting on?

Topaz, have a bloody good belly laugh if you have any comedies to watch, my sister swears that watching something that made her laugh hard brought on labour!

Heart baking sounds like a good distraction, my DS is off with an ear infection today so going to bake while DD is taking a nap! Only 8 weeks to go until my due date with DC4, reading your posts is getting me excited to meet our final addition!

Good luck! Grin

Congratulations Topaz! Sounds eventful; what time was she born?

I also had a dd (we thought it would be a boy) who arrived at 4.39 this morning. At 2 am we were sent home by triage as I was only 2 cm, at 4 we were back and out she popped with tens and half an hour of g and a! So glad we went back when we did.... :-D

Congratulations to you both!

Now, when your ready....details :D:D
