TrillianSlasher · 19/10/2009 17:19

You haven't missed it. Not that we know of. Mayb she was waiting for you?

reallywoundup · 19/10/2009 17:20

you haven't missed anything- still no babygus (or not one that she's telling us about!) on fb her sis is now in bournemouth so she will surely be able to update properly soon!

I'm here now. She can have it.

fillybuster · 19/10/2009 17:21

ok, I now have 2 dcs of my own (and a very small bump containing, I hope, dc 3) all of which require food, attention and a bath....so I'm going to have to step away from the computer really soon....

...Flame, really hope you're doing ok....

reallywoundup · 19/10/2009 17:22

bit of an epic 3rd birth isn't it- 24 hours pretty much from the first signs, surely she's had it and forgotten to tell anyone

PacificWerewolfwoohood · 19/10/2009 17:23

EG, thank goodness, you have arrived - maybe 'tis your presence she needs to "let go"...

Go, Flame, go!!

FABIsInTraining · 19/10/2009 17:24

Sending you vibes for whatever you need Flame.

Hope you are okay lovie.

Disenchanted3 · 19/10/2009 17:25

Why have 3rd births got such a bad rep?

Mine was same time (all 3 labours been 6 hours-ish) but the 3rd one did seem more painful but thats cause I was just crapping it about crowning. my fanjo is hurting just typing that word!

Frizbe · 19/10/2009 17:26

at that!

MerlinsBeard · 19/10/2009 17:28

oh HERE's the thread! Thought i better find it because if i text her any more she is going to whack me with a placenta !!

DanJARMouse · 19/10/2009 17:29

does that mean she's had it?!

sweetkitty · 19/10/2009 17:30

just back from dropping DD1 off at Rainbows had to check in

My third birth was 1h35m from waters to baby, an hour of hell right enough but ok-ish

Am hoping the fourth one drops out during the ads at Corrie

PacificWerewolfwoohood · 19/10/2009 17:31

Has she had it, really, really?? mumofmonsters, what do you know that we don't??

ShowOfHands · 19/10/2009 17:33

Somebody had better start talking.

EccentricaGallumbats · 19/10/2009 17:33

well??? do we have placenta????? baby???????

TrillianSlasher · 19/10/2009 17:33

I think MoM means that Flame is fed up with texts and thinks she should get her updates here like the rest of us. Don't think she has news...

madmissy · 19/10/2009 17:34

Is there a mini sparrow yet??

CantSleepWontSleep · 19/10/2009 17:36

When did you last hear from her MoM? I sent a text but she hasn't replied.

JustBeBuffy · 19/10/2009 17:38

Still no news???

Well at least she's stopped posting, that surely means baby is imminent/here...

...or she's too embarrassed to tell us it was a false alarm
