I am due my baby 2 weeks on saturday and have started to feel a bit nervous about labour (as Im a bit of a wimp when it comes to pain) - does anyone have any advice re pain relief/best positions for childbirth - I was ok until I started reading the baby books - agghhh...HELP.

Great news Bells - babyBells has got a great ring to it. Love from all at mumsnet.

Great news Bells. I've just read your post this morning. I'm so delighted that your little baby girl is well, calm & happy. Gives me great hope that our second will follow a similar pattern!
Congratulations!

Bells, well done, that's fantastic news. I can't believe that you really were working almost right up to the last minute. Not sure, though, that we can forgive you for not giving us the vision of lots of traders fetching you hot water and towels....Will you let us know what she'll be called, or is BabyBells going to stick?

Congratulations and welcome to TinkerBells!

This is a long thread so we may need to re-start one... but where is BLOSS ?????????? She hasn't been on Mumsnet for 3 days... could she have delivered ?!? Hope all went well.

jodee · 19/02/2002 20:23

Pupuce, my thoughts too - hope everything went smoothly Bloss, looking forward to hearing your news!

Well done Bloss and hello little Bloss. Im glad you are enjoying breastfeeding this time round.

jodee · 22/02/2002 07:36

I'm so pleased for you! A beautiful girl, what a wonderful tiny blessing for you all! Take care, how the recovery is swift.

jodee · 22/02/2002 07:36

Sorry, 'hope' the recovery is swift!

Pupuce · 22/02/2002 08:54

Super news Bloss - I am really happy for you - didn't you expect a boy ??? What have you named her ?
You'll see girls are easier than boys
I wish you all the best - hope you recover quickly physically but also morally if you know what I mean... at the end you have a beautiful baby - you said so yourself
Hugs !
Pupuce
