[biglips]

as i didnt used anything with my 1st birth so this will be my 2nd birth, i need summat to take my mind off the contractions as i hate pain

thanks

rubix cube!

sudoku, but actually dp used this as i was unable to concentrate enough (durrr it was my 1st). personally i liked the gas and air, and talking about random shit to whoever would listen (not dp obv he was absorbed in a book of soduku)

nintendo ds?

I took in a big book of sudoko which was fab as was completely addicted

maybe this one will be a quick sneeze and out it pops

The only thing I took both times was DP! To be honest, him and the gas and air was all I wanted!

If I did it again (would love to but no chance) I'd take a bottle of lavender oil and some hankies. I'd also take some lovely fluffy socks!
