Oh, it's lovely to see lurkers de-lurking and wishing me and my family well 
Pleased to announce that WANKY LODGER HAS LEFT. Room is spotless, so at least he had the grace to do that (I think mainly he just wanted his deposit back in full). My home already feels so much better and relaxed. I can breathe again.
We had a ridiculously busy day - after a bite to eat for the DCs at the festival, we decided to go to a nearby beach for a bit so they explored rock pools and had a swim in the sea. I just wandered about relaxing through the contractions. Then we did our instrument collection, drove home (I had to pull over a few times on account of the contractions), unloaded, and I got a load of washing on, checked L1's room, then headed here to give you an update.
About to crash out in bed with DD who is a bit poorly still really.
My doula does think that acrobat will be here in the next few days. I hope so, because having contractions AND vomiting is really not fun. Plus our cooling breeze has disappeared so now it is just super hot here.
She has taken twunt's number, as, following a long conversation with her yesterday, I pretty much reached the conclusion that I may want him there right at the end of giving birth, and it is better that she has the number to contact him with rather than me getting upset in the throes of 10 cm dilation and crowning etc (scaring myself again now....).
Anyway, crash out time for me. L1 has gone, and I want to do a happy dance, but it may bring on acrobat's arrival/cause me to fall over/set off another bout of vomiting. Oh - anyone who ever has full term hyperemesis like me, AVOID the birth ball. Bouncing on it is just about the worst possible activity as the bounciness sets off the vomiting almost instantly (as I discovered when I tried, and subsequently had to clean the thankfully non-carpeted floor of DD's bedroom 
)
Ouch. Must think about golden light, and my tree outside york minster, and breathing away the tension and stress of the past months.
