...DW is in early labour. Contractions just under 10mins apart.

So far the pools filled and DD is off with the grandparents. DW is posting questions on mumsnet and talking about "show".

Fed the cats, made some toast and coffee.

Is it impolite to put the 360 on yet?

Is BE in the water still?

I know how you can pass the time and earn major brownie points -sit and write this years Christmas cards, pop them in enevelopes, address them...hey presto, one of the years most tedious jobs all done and dusted

lulumama · 08/08/2008 14:21

maybe get out of the pool.. eat, drink, wee, poo, rest.. maybe some close smoochy time with you to get the oxytocin flowing and get thos CTX moving and stronger

Boobz · 08/08/2008 15:04

Smoochy time! Great expression.

God this labour lark takes a long time eh? I was expecting to hear crying by now...

Twinkie1 · 08/08/2008 15:10

BS - they have to know what they have and what it is called for them to write the cards!!!

This is v exciting - a sort of live on air mumsnet birth!

Sorry - what is a 360 though? Playstation, Wii?????

RubberDuck · 08/08/2008 15:53
