Oh holly, that's good news! I was lurking on your June thread earlier (I'm due august, love reading how you guys just ahead of us are getting on!) and I know how frustrated you've been! Really chuffed for you!

Lol, dp is pumping up the pool! It is really funny! MW will be here in half an hour! Having a few tightenings, but nothing regular as of yet! Luckily I've had my dinner and some jelly babies, so am full of energy!

WideWebWitch · 22/06/2007 21:06

Yes, wait until it's really hard work before you use the pool, it helped me a lot to have it there.

MamaMaiasaura · 22/06/2007 21:06

foxybrown · 22/06/2007 21:13

Well I'm intending to leave mine if they are sleeping, especially if the contractions haven't started yet.

MrsFish · 22/06/2007 21:13

I would leave her unless you think the screaming is going to wake her up

lulumama · 22/06/2007 21:13

foxybrown · 22/06/2007 21:14
