Morning all.

Know how you love a live thread. Pretty chilled out.

It didn't happen this way with my first. They were busy preparing for him to come in his sack.

Just having a cup of tea and a bit of porridge and waiting to see what happens next

I think he's made enough with the idea in mind that the midwives can be fed this evening.

Not sure about the curry but I know he fries the spices, etc. I can ask him once he's come down off the ceiling. He didn't want baby to come early because he hasn't finished his nesting process yet! Blush

All quiet here still. I guess there's not going to be any huge drama for a while. It'll likely all kick off tonight after Ds is in bed. That's what I'm thinking. The highlight of my day will probably be a sausage sandwich for lunch and a nap!

I'm waiting on DH to come back from the supermarket with a new mouse for my laptop so I can start playing the sims Blush That'll waste a good bit of time. He can be on DS duty today

Sausage sandwich and a cup of tea. Nothing more to report I'm afraid

How boring. Maybe you should eat the curry? Is it spicy?

DragonBone · 16/01/2018 12:11

My labour with Ds was like this too, tbf. DH is just cracking on with jobs while Ds naps and I'm playing computer games.

World's most boring labour thread Grin

Well Ds was 36 hours so it might be a drawn out thread.

Definitely waters though. It's a bit annoying

I like City Island. My city's looking massive! What are your Sims doing?

Any contractions?
