AUGUST 2008 - Relax and Enjoy

[TwilightSurfer]

LOL! I didn't want to put any pressure on "you know who."

Just popped in for a quick lurk and to see whether pea had arrived... tweakers - I went for a sweep with DD1 at 40+6 and was told the same as you and that there was NO way she was coming out on her own and to go for induction. 24 hours later it all kicked off. I'm sure that feeling the pressure was off helped (ie I stopped worrying that every little twinge meant anything, DH wasn't an irritatingly coiled spring and had a drink etc.). Not much help, but hopefully consoling that the diagnosis doesn't necessarily mean that you won't have her in your arms this time tomorrow. Or you could do what SiL did with that judgement - drink an extra glass of red wine and have a humungous row with DH. Worked both times for her. Best of luck lady.

Hello everyone else .

What about hanging on for a few more days and going for 6.07am on 08/09/10?

Wotcha Poppy

mr freeze are over here too

but come on, who's going to explain contractors' corner???

poppy had a big row with DH a few days ago and i have to admit, it really got the contractions going! they did obviously then stop so perhaps i should add a glass of wine to the mix
v encouraging to hear you had same news as me but that it did happen naturally. thank you

i mentioned the whole 8/9/10 thing to DH a few days ago and he just rolled his eyes at me!

But tweaky none of us really thought we'd get an 08/08/08 baby but there are four of them on here!

poppy helloooooo! :)

tweaks contractors' corner is a reference from the misty antenatal thread days, when TS and others were contracting seemingly without end. I think you had already had T by that point so you might have somehow not noticed

Ladies, good evening May I say before I get too merry that it is an honour and a pleasure to know you all :)

When I got to the hossie I was and DD arrived very soon after, I did super dialation :O

Crispy - Zoo sounds fun, we went shoe shopping and all I got was I like E Shoes, I like E shoes. So I gave in and she has brown Hush Puppies! She is a shoe brat!

I agree cyteen what a great bunch of women we are

Gee, I start a post, cut DH's hair come back and you are all here a'la old days.

oops you cut DH's hair in 7 minutes??? [wonky]

women? Bunch of harridens young sophisticates me thinks

Yes Cyteen, we are ALL marvellous

oops I will tell E that she has a shoe fan

I was going to put girls but wanted to include myself and at my age that's just not true

I like to think of us all as gels, personally.

BTW tomorrow is DP's stag do, so expect me on here a lot after toddler bedtime

Hots, my lovely you are a girl. and a fab one at that

Yes Hots I did, he doesn't have much!

Oh Sazz you are a great liar friend

I agree re gels actually, fits quite well with my tendency to turn into Margo Leadbetter when tipsy
