Here is promised thread jessi! Congratulations too Ellasmum and jessi - Ellasmum, my due date will be about 20th July I think. Haven't seen any midwife or doctor yet - trying to remember what I did when last time!

KMS - this is very exciting - for what it's worth you are likely to get going soon BUT I feel you ought to know that evidence based midwifery says you can wait for up to 72 hours before being induced when your waters broke....
Believe - AVOID the induction... nature will get you going !

Oh exciting exciting exciting!!!! Good luck KMS - fingers crossed for you - let us know when something else happens!!!

This is too unfair! I was the first to start this thread, and now I am the only one left!!!! KMS, I'm presuming by your silence that you've gone into hospital - hope that's all gone really well, and you've got a lovely little one. Looking forward to hearing a birth announcement from you.

If I don't produce tonight, it will be August!!!

I was thinking the same - KMS must have had her by now...
Musica- thinking of you - it will be soon

Musica, lots of love...

Thanks motherinferior and pupuce - still no sign. Am extremely fed up now - starting to think there is something wrong with me and can't actually go into labour myself, and if left to my own devices, might actually stay pregnant forever!

Musica
Maybe your baby is just waiting for the weekend!! Best of luck - it will happen soon and in the meantime, have a large gin and tonic to relax!
Hopefully you will have some news next week

Musica I really feel for you. I know exactly where you are coming from.
Belive me i didn't think I would manage contractions without drugs but I did and you might yet! I am thinking about you.

Papuce- how did you know i would have a girl?

pupuce · 01/08/2003 21:39

I am a doula I know all I didn't - slip of tongue -do tell do tell....

musica · 01/08/2003 22:15

Congratulations KMS - looking forward to hearing about the birth! I'm really glad things seem to have gone well for you.
