But if I am it's probably going to be very slow!

Having got to sleep at 12.30am (ish) last night I woke up at 2.30 and have been up ever since! I think I might have been woken up by a contraction.

Anyway, next one wasn't until 3.45am, then they came at half hourly intervals until about 7am, but haven't had any since... however I am feeling a great deal of pressure in my pelvic area.... here's hoping!

The bat got her going

MrsGordonRamsay · 30/07/2005 22:13

It hasn't changed, I don't think she has seen it.

MrsGordonRamsay · 30/07/2005 22:13

It is sure to do the job, if she does

No, I'm still here, just busybodying on other threads (but I keep getting told to go to hospital!!)

Just had another (mild) contraction. OK, two more biggies and I'll go... I promise!

It hasn't changed because I always mouseover on links and read what they are before I click - I haven't been caught out by the bat in months!!! [smug emoticon]

Yes, but it's telling me to install plugins, which I'm not allowed to do (computer is dh's baby), so nothing's happening. Does it make bat noises?

RTKangaMummy · 30/07/2005 22:27

Ah but was it food poisoning ??

Or was it just your body clearing out before labour ??

hunkermunker · 30/07/2005 22:32

What else have you tried, Miaou? Have you resorted to a mediocre bonk yet?

Miaou · 30/07/2005 22:34

Deffo food poisoning. Either that or dh came out in sympathy

HM I couldn't possibly comment on your other suggestion (was that a dig at Mrs GR???) but I am going up to bed now...

OP posts:
hunkermunker · 30/07/2005 22:35

No dig, just a gentle poke meant in a good humoured and friendly way, with much love aforethought

MrsGordonRamsay · 30/07/2005 22:36
