Bear with me on this one, I've never gone into labour before....it sounds promising, right?

Should I ring DH?

Should I put my (2 hour journey away) childcare on standby?

oh thanks nmc, how much was it? I'll write a cheque now and walk to the postbox, it might make things move along!

Do you have my email address? mamagbookclub @ hotmail dot com

Ooh this looks exciting.

Make sandwiches. Piles of 'em - ala Mrs Doyle. They come in handy if there's any waiting around going on and it gives you something to do .

Lol at 'have sex'. How on earth do you summon up the wherewithall to have sex when you're starting labour!?

GOOD LUCK!

What time is your Mum's mammogram MamaG?

I am anxious enough to have crept out of yurt to check you are ok

Bit of housework, sex with Postman, curry, making sandwiches, watching DVD and tweaking nips....

sounds like you have a BUSY day!!!

lol and good luck!

I can give no help with timings, I had emergency CS and not one blooming contraction....

MamaG · 03/11/2008 12:15

I didn't ask Mum what time it was, but I'm comfortable with asking a friend to have teh DC after school until she gets here. We have a lot of breast cancer in the family (Mum's sister suffered from it) so I REALLY don't want her to miss her mammogram. she has then yearly I think.

RIGHT I really am off now, to tweak my nips

It was £2.49
Jog to the post box, then have sex with postman, eat a curry tweak nips etc

avaTsar · 03/11/2008 12:17

Oh just a normal day then...

Ceolas · 03/11/2008 12:18

Best of luck MamaG!

MamaG · 03/11/2008 12:18

Thanks nmc - you need to email me your name and address, I will post this afternoon (or, if exciting things start to happen, I'll leave it for my mum to post!)

You know, I feel quite queasy at thought of postman, he's NOT attractive at all

needmorecoffee · 03/11/2008 12:25

that address bounced mamaG

Shoshe · 03/11/2008 12:25

Go girl!

just to say DSIL, took kids to school, had ashow, went to hospital, had baby, picked kids back up from school! So dont be to complacent!

daisy99divine · 03/11/2008 12:25

Lol at postman

wonder how he would feel being greeted by MamaG bouncing on ball, tweaking nips saying "get in here now!!!"

could substitute with jog to post box, I guess

quite right re Mum, hope she's ok

good luck!!!

needmorecoffee · 03/11/2008 12:27

AllieBongo · 03/11/2008 12:34

MamaG · 03/11/2008 12:34
