To be sat in bed crying as I'd pinned my hopes on sweep working!

[Rosebug258]

I'm angry at myself (knew deep down and I mean deep down) it wouldn't!!

Now I'm sat in bed crying my eyes out cause I'm facing the an induction on Sunday I know the ultimate goal is a happy healthy baby but still..can't help feeling rubbish over it!

Hubby being as much use as a chocolate tea pot telling me to snap out if it! Men..!!

Just wish I had my mum to talk to but she's not around (very sick gran)

Wish I could stop the tears :(

Just got hold of a community midwife and as mine is off till tomorrow they won't do a sweep today! Feel that my midwife needs to do it, as I'm not one of her ladies!

I give up and I'm going back to bed!

Pains have more or less stopped now so unlikely baby will arrive today :(

Oh honey, I feel for you. This sounds like my first.

You have a plan and you know what you want to do. So go back to bed and rest as much as you can. The worst thing you can do is already be exhausted when things do get going.

First labours especially can take a long time to get in gear. Tell your husband MN has said to be very nice to you today. He must go out, buy you any food you request, hunt down DVDs you want to watch and take you for nice gentle activities like a walk in the park. That's a command Bughusand

Hopefully a sweep tomorrow will get you going even if nothing happens today. Try and think of it is a last opportunity to rest and recharge.

Thinking of you.
