My international birthing partners! You know who you are! Lol

[missyhols]

So feel like shite. Woke up feeling really rough. Had bad night sleep with the spd i kept getting stuck! And now just feel really icky. Still in bed as dh put dd down for nap before if left for football.

Oh she didn't say anything i'm saving my speech for the doc! Must go will be back later

Hi missy!
I posted on your thread about second labours. I have been wondering how you are getting on so glad to see this. Good luck!!

How was the walk? Did your waters pop on the slide

I had forgotten about Pinapple - lovely excuse to eat loads of it!

Anyone save me some cake? I can swap for a rather stale piece of DDs 1st B'day cake (I can't bring myself to throw it out )

I echo lulu's words.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhooooooo

a show!!

However, don't want to put a dapener but my show went on for a week before dd2 arrived, it did turn pink the day labour started though.

There had better be some cake left..... Have I turned you all into Frech mode.

So i'm back and i feel ok. Bit of belly ache but not looking into it too much. Spoke to midwife and she said I've had a show. So another thing to add to list when i go in tomorrow!

missy, it really is all happening now....oh, think, by tomorrow this time you could be holding a beautyful little bundle in your arms

Mars...hope there is some of that famous cake left for me...if not...well, I suppose a piece of chocolate cake would do....;) lol!

I'll settle for any cake.

3nomore your more optimistic then me! Lol

aww...
but honest, really try to relax about it, as that will make it more likely to get things going....being relaxed, and all that....stressing about really doesn't help!

Why did you get a sweep by the way? I thought they only do those once overdue?

My show came about 6 hours before I had her, then again my waters didn't break until I pushed so I think I was just odd in general! I did throw up about 20 hours before.

No takers for the stale cake then????

I'm ok trying hard not to get too down, which is difficult. And relaxing well.
Had a sweep whilst having internal as I've been having significant contractions for a week and my spd is bad as is my bloody depression. You don't always have to wait until overdue for sweep. If things are happening or whatever then you are sometimes offered it. I had simular thing with dd at 39 weeks but it worked straight away! Lol.

Don't get down, we are all here to cheer you up sweetie. Glad you are resting, it's going to happen soon and you'll be ready when it does. Try not to worry about depression, it doesn't always strike twice, just wait and see how things go. You know better than most the signs now and will be able to act fast if you need to.

oh darling, would a virtual hug make you feel better

a small glass of wine, a warm bath and an early night might do you the power of good

try a visualisation of the birth too

I tried the viualisation thing lulu, was gutted in the end though as the real thing did not turn out as I'd imagined. There was no yucky bits and screaming in my visualisation.

mine turned out pretty close to what i imagined !

Yes def will be doing that tonight. Hopefully the hosp will agree to induce me. My midwife has been amazingly supportive with the depression etc. I find pg quite hard. Dd was very difficult but coped lots better this time up til now. I can tell its starting i think its where i'm drained from last couple weeks. Its great having you guys about thanks x

Thanks for my thimble it was great. More please!

Wait for it Missy, it's the dreaded induction word.

If it means sooner than later. Lol. I'd prefer just my waters broken.

You leave those waters be! Just.... (I know, I know....) relax!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sex babe! Lots of it and nipple stimulation and VIDEO (obviously I don't mean video yourself getting busy................) COMEDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leave your body alone. Try some natural induction techniques if you must!

Mars you on duty this evening or are you joining us for tipple?

I've tried everything going! Except castor oil! My hubby reckons he's well in!
