Cadbury is alive & well, but still no baby in sight!!!

[Spamhead]

And she is mighty fed up too ! She is fine, baby is fine, she just gets five to eight hour bouts of contractions that look like they are going somewhere and then peter out. This has been going on since Tuesday, so you can be sure she is pretty ~@#*ed off !!

BTW - I am Cadbury's DH, taking over internet posting duties while she rests in bed with Kleenex and Top of Pops 2.

Will post again as and when.

thanks hunker - I'd gpo for labour or a lottery win right now - either would be fine.

book yourself a 3 hours session at the hairdressers for tomorrow at 10am for some pampering, highlights etc

I will guarantee you will have given birth by 9.55am tomorrow

will you pay for it oliveoil?

I book Aero to come round tofday with that very idea - sadly, the baby is more stubborn than I am cunning.

Thanks Mellowma - just really tired and frustrated again now. Going to attempt lunch and watch a film with the kids to stop them killing each other.

for you cadbury
I feel for you, I really do, but just think that with all this niggling your birth will be really quick cause your body will be soooo ready. I know that wont help to make you feel beetter now.
Sending HUGE labour vibes your way

Cadders. You know the drill. Pineapple, curry and a shag. Get to it, girl....

Just think, all these contractions you're having will mean your actual delivery will take seconds.

:::vibes:::

Bubble, you old romantic, you

tried them all bubble my love, to no avail. Just a tummy ache

still having sporadic contractions but nowt regular.

seeing midwife at 4pm for another sweep.
and will then come back on here for a big cry and howl cos I'm still at 3cms or have closed up totally.

that's the theory hunker - but so far it's taken a week . . . .

Do you know if you're having a boy or a girl? Do you have names sorted?

[tries to focus Cadders on baby not labour of same]

no - don't know. have a selection of names but will wait to meet the blighter to see what h/she looks like.

Oh Cadbury you have my sympathies.

This was me last year, we celebrated ds 1st birthday on Sunday.

I was niggling for a fortnight, finally when it happened he shot out!

All the very best........

I'm one classy laydee, munker.

You've pulled me, Bubble, with your romantic chat-up line there

Cadders, I reckon you are about 8 cms dilated and coping just marvellously with it

cadbury how did it go ? how are you doing?

waiting for news......................

Saw Cadders earlier today and she was definitely contracting in between our five kids driving us mad. Some quite strong about every five minutes or so.

Midwife was still there with her last I heard around teatime. Contractions every three minutes then. It's all very exciting. Hoping it's not long now.

sounds like the big event ! send positive vibes and a back rub from me !

I had the privilege of giving her a backrub earlier and I know our midwife is an expert (she delivered ds2), so she's in good hands.

hope all goes well xxxxxxx

I'm hopeful/convinced even, that this is it this time - poor girl's been contracting for a week now and is knackered. She's had enough, so post all your best positive vibes here!
