Tinksmum has texted me from the hospital...

Hi Everyone.

I'm not pregnant myself but I know Tinksmum and she has texted me a couple of hours ago (I was out) with the following:

"Hi [APsmum] I'm at Women's thought I had BH but I'm in Labour! They're trying to stop it but it's only slowing down at the moment. Women's NNU is full so waiting for a bed elsewhere. Please can you let MN know. If one of Feb wants my number so they can have updates that's cool, they're mostly on Facebook"

She has also texted me just now (I just arrived home and had switched the laptop on to send this message). She says she's in an ambulance on the way to another hospital now.

Let's hope they can keep little Tink inside for a bit longer. I think she said to me 2 days ago on MSN that she's 24 weeks now?

Thinking of them all here too.

berolina · 19/10/2008 10:01

oh gosh, thinking of you. hang in there baby.

madmarriedNika · 19/10/2008 12:12

Oh gosh, had just been reading her message on the Bliss messageboard about her uterine doppler scan a few days ago- poor things, this is not what they need after everything they've already been through

Really hoping somehow they can slow down/halt labour and get those vital antenatal steroids in... Fingers crossed if LO appears soon he/she comes out fighting

Thinking of Tinkerbellesmum and all her family lots- sending as many positive vibes as possible xxxx

chilledmama · 19/10/2008 14:42

Oh! Any news?

Fingers crossed.

Hi,

She replied to my texts earlier today. She has been transferred to LIVERPOOL (- she lives here in Birmingham!). She said sorry for the not texting but left her charger and her phone battery went:

"Still having contractions but not dilating but that doesn't mean much at this stage. Will be in now till she comes, either here or home when they have a bed if it's before she comes."

and later on in another text:

"Each day we keep her in is better. I don't think it will be too long to be honest. She's in position and the contractions have been going on a long time now even with the drugs."

and most recently:

"Just spoke to the MW, my drugs run out tomorrow night but they'll probably keep me going till the morning so they don't find out overnight if it's worked!"
