Peachy and VS's when-will-this-baby-come thread: all comers very welcome to join in

[Peachy]

Following on from Angua's thread as that's nigh on fuill and she has her lovely baby.....

Am 41 weeks tomorrow and VS is on a deadline for her VABC- help! LOL

right, crumpet anyone?

I ache
Have been in the bath since about 6:30 (WHY?Kids are still asleep) my bum aches, and my legs, I feel like I've ran a marathon.

OH VS. That is exciting, I had the most excrutiating pain in my bottom, when I told my midwife she said it was my pelvis opening really fast, baby was born within 10 minutes of my bottom starting to hurt.

Fingers crossed it will happen now! Good Luck!

TEN MINUTES
I can't do it in ten minutes!

ten minutes... hmm... given a choice I'd go for ten minutes

Better decide which DC is going to deliver it then, DD(7) or DS(3)?
Cos there is no way anyone else would get here in time

I'd go with dd

Not sure DS can reach the towels...

all you need are some warm ,clean dry towels for baby, and that is it !! achey bottom and legs sounds promising, any shapr pains in your foofoo?

BTW, if you think baby is coming very quikc you call 999

VS? You still there?

VVVVVVVVVSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

maybe she has just gone for a cup of tea?

Yes, I hope so, but under the circumstances, I doubt my gut reaction would be to go and make a cuppa....

She said earlier on that the kids were still asleep - they've probably woken up and she's doing mum-type stuff...

do you think???

My youngest was born within 40 minutes of arriving to the hospital, there were not even time for the pethidine, I only had 10 minutes of bottom ache. I yelled for Pethidine, and MW told me to lay down on my side bottom to her, so she could give me the shot, there was no time.

But Lulumama you know about these things, and I guess all births are different, so she should have time yet. Right?

Oh this is so exciting, I have to go and buy play doh. Will check on the thread when I get back from town.

GOOD LUCK VS!!!!

theoretically, especially as this is her first vaginal birth, but birth is surprising !
every birth is different, on the whole, they follow a pattern of sorts, but some women have very different experiences.. so many variables..

Is VS maybe doing the school run? or doing holiday mum stuff.

Here i am, still pg, 39+6 today. So fed up of all the mums faces at school, lol. I actually feel ok, not too moody Have child free day today so thats nice.

no more twinges, scorpio? (well, different twinges I mean)

was crampy last night, but is to be expected with baby so low i expect

yeah, I would expect so.

rest today , scorpio!
