Is it your first? I had this with my first, it can be very disheartening.

If it helps at all, those days of on off contractions were definately doing something. My second stage was much much quicker than my first stage, she practically shot out.

Try and keep active, even if it's just walking round the house.

Hope you've already got baby in your arms :)

I second keeping active! My sister had my gorgeous niece on day 8 of slow labor after we made her waddle round as much as possible! Good luck xxx

In slow labour since Saturday. I truly feel your pain. It's so disheartening not to mention exhausting. Have you been able to get much sleep? I'm on my second pregnancy and never had this with my first. Try to keep active - I'm off to push a trolley around lidl to try and bring it on (and get some shopping too obviously).

Good luck.

If you want you can come to my house and clean? Grin
I'm so helpful.
I can't hoover or mop because I have spd and the floors are driving me insane - but everything at waist height and up is sparkly.

I'm currently bouncing on my gym ball (while mn'ing and having some sushi), I need to get everything to sync up. I had contractions every 15 mins for 2 hours on Saturday, but then they stopped, it's very annoying.

I'm thinking of booking something expensive and non-refundable for the next few days because then it will definately kick off.

Now i want to bake, im off into town to get some new bakeware and ingredients, lemon drizzle sounds good Smile

A win-win situation if ever I heard one. Either you have baby, or you have cake. or maybe both!

cantheyseeme · 11/12/2013 07:50

I still have neither haha Grin

Is it so wrong that I'm jealous? My pains are getting stronger but are just useless. Been up since 3am, I can't sleep through them.

I hope you're getting some rest before you're c-section tomorrow. I had a CS the first time around, it's not so bad.
