Waters gone.... Yup. Contractions started.... Indeed. Anyone want a nice birth thread with Flamesparrow?

[FlameIsOnDay2]

Waters started trickling about 6pm. Contractions are still vague and spaced out but there iyswim.

Erm, that's about it for the updates atm

Oh, will go change my name...

Knew lulu wouldn't be too far away!

Oh, and don't forget to put a jug by the loo for your lukewarm water after the birth.

UPDATE QUICKER than HMHB pleeaaassseee

Have wished you luck elsewhere but just wanted to say it again here! Looking forward to hearing the news. x

had it yet?

how exciting flame

Saw on FB that things are kicking off.

Here's looking forward to hearing ofminiflame's arrival in the morning

Good Luck

Off to bed now - shall look forward to hearing about the little Spark tomorrow.

Hope all goes well Flame

Im sure I you bought some baby nightgowns from me for your first baby - but I probably have got that totally wrong

and I have name changed anyway so you wont have a clue who I am!

but I shall assume I am right and shall think of your new wee baby sleeping peacefully in my dds nightgowns

LIW- Mothercare ones with animals across the chest for DS They are folded in the drawer ready

Have had a sleep, but woke needing the loo and now hurty and restless again. Going to attempt House again!

I'm here if you need a chat to distract - it's only 8:30 pm in my time zone so I'll be around for a while.
How's it going?

Ello

Finished House. Contractions more contracty (if that makes sense), still fairly irregular but stronger. Loving that contraction master site!

Gonna put some more air in the pool in a bit and start chucking in some water. Remember from last time it provides a good distraction! DH is asleep, he may as well get as much sleep as he can for the time, I'm too restless atm.

Sorry, got stuck reading the "what batty things have your MW/HV said to you?" thread. How's it going then?

I don't think I read up far enough - which episode of House did you watch?

The one on sky tonight

Its going ok, starting to remember that this whole baby eviction thing hurts at the end doesn't it?

The cat won't leave me alone... I can see her being shut outside soon!

Ok, that pool is harder to pump than I realised!!!

Hi,
Just wanted to say good luck! I should be around most of the night too as myself, DH and DS2 have all gone down with a tummy bug, courtesy of DS1. It's good to think someone else is up and hopefully having a better experience than me!

Glad things are progressing and you got a bit of sleep. Am up for a bit cos dd2 shat the bed - aftermath of D&V ug over the weekend. Good luck

d & v is my friend tonight then?

Good luck Flame.

Off to bed again now. Good luck Flamey, will log on tomr for birth announcement

how's it going flame?

Managed to go back to bed for an hour. Woke up with some "Ow f*ck its".

Going to prod DH and get him to sort this pool. He's had a fair amount of sleep now and I could really use the thing!

Awww - have a nice soak.
Going to try for another hour's sleep myself now the boy is fed.

We havnt spoke before Flame but I am here for a while if you need company.

Thank you MissM

Pool now fully inflated, now just filling the thing!

I had my yougest the weeek between Christmas and New Year. I was convinced 3 times I was in labour, but the sent me home twice.
It must be nice not having to rush off and be poked. Personally I think they poked too hard and scared him back up!
