I know it has been done 1000 times before, but if nothing else I just want something to do with myself while my body decides what it is going to do.

I felt fine all day, got to about about 5 o'clock-ish, and very suddenly started to feel sick, didn't want to eat dinner but DH made me eat some toast which perked me up a bit, have been having fairly mild but intense contractions (can you have mild and intense at the same time?!!) with a tiny bit of back pain, coming every 8-10 minutes or so. The contractions aren't painful, but just really tight, and the baby has dropped really low.

Anyone who has followed the last 5 weeks with me, this is completely different to every contraction I have had before!

I actually feel really silly posting this, in case it turns out to be nothing, but I am bored and can't concentrate on the telly, so thought it would at least take some time up.

Maybe NJ can be NativityJane?

LMAO at LetItShow I think I might go with NativityJane though, it is more recognisable to me (and I really don't need any encouragment to letitshow....)

I don't think anything will come today so keep your money EmmaTom, had nothing, except more show, since the contractions when I was walking around town, it all seems to have suddenly stopped!

Good news though It looks like my mum might be able to come up to us after the baby is born, long story about why she might not have able to, but it is looking good

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 01/12/2006 13:48

NativityJane · 01/12/2006 13:54

Even though JackFrostNippingAtYourCreena made me lol so much that bits of banana ended up on the screen, the winner has to be CreenaberrySauce!

twelvedaysofchristmas · 01/12/2006 15:21

I am laughing so much here Creenaberry. I am very giddy today. Still trying to think of one for you Melloma.

NativityJane · 01/12/2006 15:24

LOL Mellowma, DS has been asking all week 'is it December yet?' until this morning when he forgot to ask, and I forgot to tell LOL He has just come in from school and opened the first window!
