Its time. Waters went in a gush at 930 pm in bed at home watching telly.

Contractions coming within an hour now - hypnoborthing tapes making me not notice any unless the midiwfe points it out. Mild pressures, very sleepy.

Watch this space and wish us luck! Am 37+3/4.

35 hours labour. First 24 hours spent turning baby in mind numbing agony.so no dilation.

Gas and air only. The excruciating pain was something else. And here's squish!
