No, no Lulu. The consultant who I want to deliver me is off first thing tomorrow morning to some shindig obstetrician thing (probably a christmas party disguised as a conference on post natal statistical data) and will only be around this evening for a couple of hours and then Friday. I have an appt with him Friday in the labour suite.

I am 2 cms dilated and beautifully effacing

I am crossing ze legs till Friday. No sex (pmsl), curry, pineapple or bosom fiddling on the menu here in Bordeaux this evening!

have a sort though the homeopathy kit GGG there is bound to be something for draw this out for a couple of days .

ShowOfHands · 05/12/2007 17:22

And there was me thinking Bordeaux was a hot bed of spicy food and twiddling bosoms. Shan't book a holiday there after all as it sounds like it might be a disappointment.

Good luck - I m hoping I am not day behind you (but could do with waiting till at Tuesday)

Camillathechicken · 05/12/2007 19:10

You're so calm!! I would be so excited I would be bouncing off the walls.

Enjoy the facial, and let us know how the cake goes

SantaBeClausImWorthIt · 06/12/2007 08:53

I can't believe you're already having this baby. It seems only 5 minutes since you told us you were pregnant.

Fingers crossed that baby is listening to you!

ChristmasShinySnowflakes · 06/12/2007 08:55
