very warm shower over the lower abdomen can help pain too

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 14:44

Oh a shower is nice! They let me off the drip for 15 minutes during my labor, and it was heaven. Especially if you have a shower head that changes to a massage setting.

right now NJ i have finally found your thread and you've dissappeared!!

now girls whos hoping she had a sweep and dilated right there at the midwives and is now holding her baby?!?! or is that wishful thinking?!?!

Piffle · 06/12/2006 14:51

yes yes where is NJ today?

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 14:58

I don't know where she is but she should have been back by now.

HappyMellowmas · 06/12/2006 15:07

She has gone for a sweep.

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 15:07

The suspense is killing me.

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 15:09

I know she went for a sweep, but last night she said she should be back by noon. She's 3 hours late. I bet she went off and had her baby, and didn't say anything to us about it.
Typical, she keeps us in suspense for weeks, and when it happens we get left out of the loop.

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
the tens machine my mum has borrowed me the sticky has worn off and it wont stay on!!!!!!!!!

HappyMellowmas · 06/12/2006 15:15

She is either:

Having baby in hospital
In hospital for raised BP & swelling
Gone shopping again
Completely pi$$ed off and having some time out for herself

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 15:19

Debsy, I don't know how to help you, we don't use TENS machines for labor here.

Dingdongdebbsyandbibbyonhigh · 06/12/2006 15:21

lulumama · 06/12/2006 15:46

good luck everyone, it sounds like things are kicking off.

lulumama · 06/12/2006 16:09

most unlike NJ not to report back after a MW appointment.......

OP posts:
CreenaberrySauce · 06/12/2006 16:10

This is all very exciting! I hope NJ is having her baby too - sounds like Debsy is on the way!

C'mon girls!

RARR! RARR! RARR! YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE YOUR BOBBS!

(little bit of cheerleading there for you - should really leave all that to MKG, she's much better at it)

By the way MKG, I wish we could fast forward to May too.....

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 16:21

Creena I read that as "You're gonna have your boobs" lol.

lulu, I think they took NJ to the hospital. She probably begged them to take the baby out. Or maybe they're running more tests for her swelling. I hate not knowing.

Here we are on a thread that is asking if NJ is in labor, and we don't even know.

lulumama · 06/12/2006 16:24

am thinking the same thing MKG...the swelling did sound concerning.........or she had the sweep and waters broke or something.....oh, i do hope so, she so needs to have this baby, bless her, she has had weeks of this

OP posts:
MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 16:29

I just want to know what's going on. Watch her come back later and say, "I'm sorry I went out" and here we are worried about her.

I don't even know her, but am very excited and a little worried.

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 16:31

I mean how hard is it to pop in real quick to say, "I'm going to the hospital for an induction".

I hope she has her baby, and I can't wait for the name.

Dingdongdebbsyandbibbyonhigh · 06/12/2006 16:35

Still nothing from Nat then?

MerryPiffmas · 06/12/2006 16:45

must qualify as the most watched for and discussed birth on mn surely

MerryPiffmas · 06/12/2006 16:45

I do wonder if she might have got pinged in for pre eclampsia and induced or something.
I hope she is ok whatever.

MKGnearlyimmaculateconception · 06/12/2006 16:52

Maybe she couldn't get the sweep, she got pissed off, and is out shopping for her plunger.

christmas2NDTIMEmistletoeandwi · 06/12/2006 16:55

Debbsy get DH to go to maternity unit to get sticky pads, or try boots???
