Hello all!
Thank you for the welcome to the 2 DD club Jaamy! I am still shocked that I have 2 girls, I was convinced I was having a boy.
In repopnse to was it quick - started having a few niggles on Wed morning but I thought it was wind! pains disappeared for a couple of hours then returnrd about 1ish. By 4 was having contractions every 6 minutes and DH was still at work over an hour away. By the time DH got home, contactions were every 3 mins. Got to hospital at 5.55 and had DD at 8.27.
Things here are very chaotic, we were not expecting DD2 for another week so we were not ready. We are still having work done on the house so we have had plasterers and tilers in and out of the house all week so the place is a tip. We are expecting decotators tomorrow so hopefully eveything will be finished soon.
DD1 is really having problems adjusting too. We have had a couple of almighty tantrums, the type you see on suppernanny. She has reverted back to wanting to be fed and whining. We are trying to ignore any unwanted behaviour and go overboard with praise for good behaviour. I feel really sorry for her but I know she will be fine, eventually!
Wow what a long post - sorry if I have bored you stiff!
Hope you are all ok and hopefully we can get together soon when I am not stuffing my bra with cabbage leaves and bursting into tears for no apparent reason x
