Good luck hollyandalice...we're all waiting for news!

hollyandalice · 22/06/2007 21:29

Nope, no baby yet! I think the contractions are starting though! Feeling the constant urge to poo which is how it started last time! I didn't scream last time, so hopefully dd will sleep through it.

The pool has a bloody puncture and I forgot to buy a sieve! The puncture is tiny and slow, so it'll be fine if we keep pumping it, but the sieve issue is dire !

The sofa is soaking and so is the floor!!

hollyandalice · 22/06/2007 21:31

Dp just asked me who's going to cook his breakfast in the morning! Guess what my answer to that was!

Get back onto ebay and leave negative feedback straight away about the birthing pool

IdrisTheDragon · 22/06/2007 21:38

Good luck .

(read the later messages before the whole thread and thought "you really don't want to tape up that hole ).

foxybrown · 22/06/2007 21:39

Don't you have a sieve in the kitchen? Put it through the dishwasher after, it'll be fine. You'll smile about it every time you bake!

tortoise · 22/06/2007 21:39

Oooh how exciting.Good luck.

annobal · 22/06/2007 21:40

PMSL Idristhedragon!

LynetteScavo · 22/06/2007 21:41

LoL at fried placenta for breakfast!

This is so exciting!

Don't wake your DD, she'll be fine. She may even wake up to a new sibling in the morning.
