come on flame!!!!!

FlameIsHavinABaby · 19/10/2009 13:26

midwife says I am still the same stage, ctx getting closer. I am disoriented and feeling sick which feels transitionish. With both the others I went from "You're the same as 3 hours ago" to "Oh look there is a head" very fast so am hopeful!

Have sent midwife to do a home visit she had a call and the poor woman has been cancelled on 3 days in a row... She is only the next road over though and we have her mobile number

EachPeachPearMum · 19/10/2009 13:26

Come on baby!

fillybuster · 19/10/2009 13:26

Alibooobaandthe40phantoms · 19/10/2009 13:31

God you are superwoman - I would be clinging onto the MW's ankle begging her not to leave me!

Are you managing to keep drinking a bit? Don't want to get dehydrated

FlameIsHavinABaby · 19/10/2009 13:32

Jacksmamwahahaha · 19/10/2009 13:33

Sorry I had to disappear last night, DS was a bit unsettled and needed mama close by. We are at my parents' in Toronto so nothing familiar around for him.

You are my hero for typing in labour - I was a gibbering wreck.

Go Baby Flame!!!

Blimey, hats off to you Flame for still posting when you might be in transition.

If this is you disorientated, I am in awe.
