ok am due on 15th, hb rota not quite started but apparently not a problem hoorah! contracting at least every 10 mins sometimes very close together although varying in strength, just had strongest one yet so that is good...

um,

got dh and a lovely freind cleaning the house and generally fussing around me while I type and breathe! so if it does all stop now then it has been time well spent!

oh, also had a big poo of the runny kind, sorry if tmi but it is a vital detail I'm sure you'll agree

sory if I abandon thread, mw coming any minute as we live in the sticks and she has only been here once in the daylight, will report back any of her findings (or none of them...)

thanks for the support x
