Ok 39 + 2 days and waters went spectacularly an hour ago!!

Popped to hospital who examined me and said yep waters have gone!

So im now home not sure what to do.... thinking of going to bed to get some rest as im stil suffering laryngitis which is not nice!

Feel like I need to use the loo but to scared to due to infection risk to baby! (silly I know!)

No contractions that I know of, well bump keeps going hard but im in no real pain as such!? Hoping things will start in the morning will see how things go!

all support welcomes with my first birth!!

Ooh, my first birth thread, is it right to be worrying that I have to take DS3 swimming later 'cos I don't want to miss anything?

skinsl · 22/01/2010 10:39

Shall we have a bet on what time he gets here???

diddl · 22/01/2010 10:48

Not contracting because you´re not fussing??!!

With my second I was 8cms before I had a pain!

Good luck HurryDown

thanks for the support ladies!

Doing fine right now cons seem closer and def getting more painful. Having a bowl of cereal and wondering when i should think about going back in. Have no idea how long will take to get to 10cm! With each contraction I have alot of back pain and feel like he is going to drop out of my bum!

DH thinks its hilarious I found a cobweb on the ceiling in bathroom so concentrated on that with each contraction whilst havig a soak!

I must be a slattern cause im not going to move it now!

Ever the late-developer, I've discovered MN at 36+5d but with live threads like this, better late than never I'd say!!

I hope all is going well, Hurry! Can't wait to hear all about it!

lostinwales · 22/01/2010 23:20

Don't worry about being a late developer, I've only just discovered MN and my eldest is 10 in 2 weeks!

Now good luck hurry! I hope you are sniffing new baby head by now

mama2moo · 23/01/2010 10:07
