After 2 weeks of false starts I think DC4 may be finally arriving

[Izzyschangelingisarriving]

hopefully in the next 24 hours! DH is insistent it is coming at 20.12 tomorrow - that seems an awfully long time away to me.

Exciting

No idea what it is - contractions every half hour or so.

Oh wow, I hope this is it it! xx

Yay best wishes

Oooh. Lovely day for a baby!!!

Good luck. Looking forward to hearing news of your baby later today.....no pressure!

Its stopped - had a show, had a sweep.

Midwife says this is norm for 3rd babies and this is 3rd in 5 years - hugebgap between 1 and 2.

And it's OP.

I'm so fed up.

Argh.

Oh God don't say that Izzy! My 3rd is due in 2 weeks and I'm dreading it!

Hope the sweep has doe summat useful anyway...keep posting x

• done

sleds if it's any help - my 3rd was a text book fast delivery that came in 3 hours!

Oh yes that does help, thanks

How are you getting on now?

Had about 5 sharp contractions then my waters broke - just now - so things are moving along I guess - DH just ringing midwife again.

But they've stopped again - which I believe is common when waters break.

I've never had a live labour thread before

Oooh, good luck. Once waters go, it won't be long one way or another. Sending you lots of productive but not too painful labour vibes.

so exciting!

yes, it's the easing up of pressure.

good luck!

Ooh sounds like this is it.

Have been lurking on your threads waiting for a Christmas baby.

Hope it all goes smoothly for you.
