Will this become the live birth thread? Will Lodger 1 leave? Will waves be smiling throughout this thread?

Doula is on call, bags are packed, acrobat was a teeny 14 weeks foetus when I started posting - he is about to become DC3, I'll stop being sick and a whole new chapter will begin.

My doula is taking me up. The consultant s pa just called after she spoke to my doula who said I need to go to the ward. So just need to try to stop crying and ensure DCs are dressed. I'm scared now.

Aw, don't be scared waves, you're going to meet your lovely baby! Good luck! ThanksThanksThanks

MissStrawberry · 24/07/2013 08:54

Scared is normal. Don't worry about that. Excitement will come soon. Your baby will be here soon Grin.

Thumbwitch · 24/07/2013 08:56

Waves, I hope you have a smartphone so are still picking up messages - brave lady, it will go well. You have a doula, you are going to the hospital, all will be well and by the end of today (hopefully!) you will have a snuffly little baby to hold and love til your heart bursts with it.
It's the start of a new love affair; and you will feel healed by it. And you'll stop feeling/being sick!
Bonuses all around. Everything crossed here for you that you have a safe and speedy delivery xxx

I have not posted on your threads before and I felt I had nothing to offer you in the way of advice or help, but please know that I am thinking of you and your family today.
It's almost over.
Hold into that.
You will meet your baby soon x

Boosiehs · 24/07/2013 09:01

Another lurker who has seen how much you have gone through. But this is the icing on the cake, am rooting for you and Acrobat. You're a marvellous mum already and soon you'll be embracing your third. I can't wait to hear your news. Best of luck!

LiveItUp · 24/07/2013 09:09

^^ What Thumbwitch said. You will soon be burying your nose into his delicious new smell and enjoying snuggles. This is YOUR day, yours and Acrobats. Flowers

duende · 24/07/2013 09:11

Good luck Waves, hope all goes smoothly and easily for you and you have acrobat in your arms very soon. Sending you lots of positive energy!

thekatsatonthematt · 24/07/2013 09:15

Watching and waiting waves. Good luck, you're doing so well. Looking forward to hearing about acrobats arrival (and not ignoring the fact that I'm 39 weeks tomorrow so this'll be me soon Grin )

wavesandsmiles · 24/07/2013 09:16

Thank you all. Just waiting for my doula to arrive, she's fetching us all and dropping DCs to my friend on the way.

So uncomfortable, and my legs are absolutely killing me. No idea what that is about. I have a smart phone so will check in if I can. At least by going up I can find out if this is labour and of not, they can try to work out what is wrong as this level of pain is not normal.

Don't be scared now waves. You have come so far. You are ready and so is Acrobat. Time to meet.

Thinking of you and sending positive vibes your way, from NYC. Flowers
This birth is going to make me cry, I swear.

Swift, painfree and healthy. Go waves.

MissStrawberry · 24/07/2013 09:18

Might have to go out later but I will be thinking of you Waves.
