you're all nutters!

got down to 6 minutes then decided to switch ctx timer off and have some tea........ not too painful, but baby is kicking again now which does hurt!

See you at the finish line Ellie - sounds like you are further on than me!

She is beautiful scorpio, cheesy but pics gave me a lump in my throat! Can't wait to meet my baby!

knew I shouldn't have joined in that fateful thread, due day just about drawing to a close and all I've had is a bit of cramping and heartburn. RUBBISH!

EllieG · 21/04/2008 22:10

Still at home but is getting hurty! Contractions about 5 mins apart and lasting a minute. Don't need pain relief yet though so will stay at home til I do, as hospital said probably best, and I would rather be here where I am comfy and have easy access to tea and chocolate.

Hopefully tomorrow I will be a mummy!

Good luck dondons!

ImightbeLulumama · 21/04/2008 22:13

scorpio she is so beautiful, absolutely gorgeous, but then with you guys are her parents... what else could you expect? lovely

ellie, remember to wee and poo, rest if you need to, even if you cannot sleep , it might be a long night, a bath might help, and some dark and quiet to get into the zone. best of luck

night all x

No news yet

hope she's OK

probably asleep after a night of labour and baby cuddling (hopefully)

DonDons · 22/04/2008 09:09

Scorpio she is just gorgeous! She looks just like you

Hope you are fairing well Ellie! Am rooting for you

All quiet on the northern front this morning. Have decided I don't want to have baby until next week now .

'Tis best friend's birthday today, wedding anniversary tomorrow and DH's birthday on Thursday so baby needs to stay inside till at least Friday. Nice that she will be a taurean same as me and DH, not that I believe in all that bollocks stuff really.

Go Ellie!

S'alright, i just told her that I have perfect faith in her ability- her MW is unlikely to have BFI accreditation due to where she lives, so chances are I'vr more training (isn't that sad?)

I am going to send her lots of information, and hopefully there's BF organisations there- will look for her.

SquonkTheBeerGuru · 22/04/2008 13:40

when lulu pops by, can someone please point her in this direction?

and if any of the rest of you want to pop over and give good advice, feel free.
