Waters just broken. .. What now?

[mustardtomango]

So we've done nct and read the books, but um... Not theyve gone, what do we do?

[terilou87]

Ahhh hope things speed up soon mustard, no knowledge on drip either unfortunately, fingers crossed you progress before then x

[Igloofornow]

Thinking of you mustard, have been induced twice with drip, both labours were six hours from start of drop to delivery. Third delivery was without drip and I did notice a difference in level of pain. The contractions very quickly get on top of each other on it but just as it seemed I couldn't take anymore it settled into a 'normal' rhythm and I managed without epidural.

Here's hoping though things ramp up for you about 7 am, after a good night's rest

Glad you updated - I've been wondering how you were doing! . Funny how some posts just stick in your head

Hopefully you can get a bit of rest now, and may well start up again before it gets round to the drip stage.

That said, even if he does need a kick-start its not so dire. Two of mine were induced. And the upside is that once the drip is up and running, you are absolutely sure that you are staying in hospital until little one arrives!!
Are you all packed?

Will check back, when I wake up

[mustardtomango]

Morning two! more (who knew!) breaking of water about 30 mins ago, and almost immediate contractions again. Feel like I've got a days knowledge on this lot...

Regular to irregular... Though still optimistic. Feeling a bit shocking (tummy, sick, strong to me contractions) so taking to be a good sign. Come on little one! I know you're comfy but.....
