Sorry to butt in but I just wanted to wish WWW all the very best of luck! And Monkey too, hope you are both ok!

Dahlia · 20/11/2003 21:38

oops.

janh · 21/11/2003 14:05

Still no news from monkey then...she must be very busy!

www, anything doing yet?

monkey · 21/11/2003 14:56

thanks for your words of encouragement!

My gorgeous lttle Aidan was (finally) born at 6.29 am on Monay 17th November, weighing in at 3.7 k.

I'll bore you all with the details on the 'birth announcements'.

Good luck to you all still waiting.

M2T · 21/11/2003 15:01

Monkey - I just couldn't wait for the birth announcement thread so I'll say it here...

...CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

WideWebWitch · 21/11/2003 15:02

Oh brilliant Monkey, I am pleased to hear from you. Congratulations! No, nothing doing here but ds goes to his dad's this evening for the weekend so I've got it in my head that I'm having this one tonight or tomorrow sometime. Have to collect ds at 3.30 and hope I can hang on til ex dh comes to get him at about 8pm ish tonight...Let's hope I'm right, thanks for the good luck, will post as soon as it's over! Rhubarb, hope they got your blood OK and your iron levels are ok. You must be 37 weeks now, nearly there!

chanelno5 · 21/11/2003 15:16

Wow Monkey, fab news! Look forward to hearing all the details. Love and congratulations to you x

www - D day is finally here! Really hope that your vibes are right and the little one arrives this weekend. I had the vibe that my one would arrive on the 15th and amazingly, for once, I was right! Thinking of you and sending you my best x

Rhubarb · 21/11/2003 15:22

Don't talk to me about blood counts!!!!!!!
Congrats Monkey! We've all been wondering about you! And Aidan is a lovely name btw!

WWW - your turn next!

WideWebWitch · 22/11/2003 08:34

I'm still here! But ds has gone for the weekend so I'm hopeful it'll be soon. Managed sex and a good nights sleep last night so maybe it'll be the last time I have either in a while

pupuce · 22/11/2003 08:42

WWW - if it starts niggling.... try a beer or glass of wine to relax you.... it helps.... ask Monkey

motherinferior · 22/11/2003 11:39

Come on wicked water babe!xxxxx

Rhubarb · 24/11/2003 16:48

WWW - how are you?

WideWebWitch · 24/11/2003 22:03

Hi Rhubarb, I'm 3 days overdue and peed off and have had enough. I know it's only 3 days but I sort of didn't expect it to be, plus MIL and mother have both used the word Induce, which annoyed me, I mean it is ONLY 3 days! I alternate between terrified and confident. Really want it over with. Pupuce, am having the odd glass of wine and sex but still nothing doing yet. Am really, really hoping it'll be tonight. At this rate I'll be so relieved to go into labour I might forget to be scared

prufrock · 24/11/2003 22:07

I've just searched for your posts www - after being here at 4am yesterday, then no word, I was beginning to think something was happening. It will hapen soon enoough - don't worry. Have you tried lots of nipple twiddling?

tinyfeet · 25/11/2003 03:44

A nice long walk, WWW. Waiting is hell, isn't it! I was 7 days overdue w/ DD and was induced. I thought I'd go crazy. Good luck!!!

WideWebWitch · 25/11/2003 08:26

Thanks you 2. I'm STILL here though

motherinferior · 25/11/2003 08:28

oh bugger

pupuce · 25/11/2003 08:55

WWW - baby will come when good and ready..... Bells can tell you abou that one ! Her 3rd was amazingly late !

janh · 25/11/2003 09:32

prufrock, I did that too this morning! Sympathy, www - hope it's not much longer

elliott · 25/11/2003 16:40

Hello everyone. Now its nearly the end of Nov and still only 4 babies!! hope it happens really soon www, I know if I so much as get to my due date (looking increasingly likely) I will be in a total panic about the I-word so can relate to how you're feeling.
Two weeks ago I thought it was all very imminent but seems to have settled down again now. It's ds's birthday on Friday, and now we are so close to it I hope it stays put until next week! Alternating between excited impatience and terrified denial

How are the newborns? Please someone start the thread!!!

Grommit · 25/11/2003 16:58

I might just be next - booked in for my c-sec on Thursday morning - aggghhhh

tinyfeet · 25/11/2003 17:35

WWW, hopefully it's happening now. Elliott, didn't realize you were coming up so soon. And Grommit, I'm envious that you actually have the date. I would prefer that to all the waiting, but then again, didn't really like being induced as I was last time. . . .

WideWebWitch · 25/11/2003 19:01

Nah, still here. Sex, pineapple, glass of wine and a float about in my birthing pool are my things to try tonight. Grommit, I sincerely hope I beat you but if not, good luck for Thursday. Elliott, know the feeling - every time ds goes to school I think COME ON THEN! and everytime I'm in the car on the way to collect him I think "No, hang on at least until his bedtime" so I hope it happens before the party or after. When are you due again? We're so close to the end of Nov and it really doesn't seem like many babies does it? Good luck to everyone on this thread.

WideWebWitch · 25/11/2003 19:01

Won't necessarily be trying them in that order btw!

WideWebWitch · 25/11/2003 19:04

Just checked elliott and you're due 3rd Dec hey, so I do hope I beat you too!
