I'm in hospital having contractions at 33 weeks. Just woken up with strong pains again so back on monitor. Anyone about?

No number 5. All been early but hoped with the treatment I was on this time I would carry further. Contractions up to 70/80% and every few mins. Wasn't dilating 2 hours ago.

Hello sparkly. I'm here, bfing DD2 (4 months). My friend had her baby 6.5 weeks early, her DD came out of hospital 2 weeks before her due date and is doing brilliantly, such a cutie.
Are you having a boy or a girl, do you know?

My waters broke last week so was supposed to be induced on Friday. Guess our little madam has different plans

I seem to remember that this is not your first, SparklyGC, and also not your first preemie (if you are indeed going to be giving birth fairly soon)

still, it must be a bit scary...

It's not too bad. There is someone labouring down the corridor and a few snorers in this bay lol. Mw is just keeping an eye on me.

I'd love a coffee, and maybe some marmite toast if that's no bother Grin

33 weeks pregnant here myself and got insomnia Hmm

SparklyGothKat · 22/05/2012 03:05

Oooo marmite on toast. Yes please!! And a tea would be lovely. Grin
