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.

I didn't want to post so as not to take up too much space, but if you're going to start another one?

Go Waves! Go Acrobat!

Sorry but I had to cave in and go to bed.

I'm sure you're with the adorable midwife now and maybe Acrobat is here. My heart leapt when I read 'clumps of contractions' - I hope you managed to get to the hospital waves !

Looking forward to updates. No pressure lies

If I get stuck starting a thread I mean in case. Could someone pm me now so I can send any updates I'm able? Not planning on many more as I'm trying to zone in now. But at least then someone can either start a thread or share any major news! Can't pm on phone but can reply to inbox messages.

Off to hospital in about 5 minutes

I woke at 4.23 for a wee. shape of the bathmat where it was scrunched up made me think of what I imagine a shrew looked like. Thought of you Waves. Hope all is going well.

dontmakemeslapyou · 27/07/2013 09:02

BBMs · 27/07/2013 09:04

I have been waking up at random times through the night to check if Acrobat had made an appearance...
Waves, you are doing an excellent job being so brave and calm. Wishing you the best! :) :)

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 27/07/2013 09:26

Dear waves how do you keep your focus and remain calm so many hours in. Still coherent still composed. ((Hug)) Can't be long now surely.

bunchamunchycrunchycarrots · 27/07/2013 10:20

Can't wait to hear about the final home straight waves, once you have brought that little boy safely out into the world. I'm ridiculously excited as its so close now! Go waves!

Jux · 27/07/2013 10:30

Pom poms out for you, lovely. You are amazing. Seriously, astonishingly amazing.

Wuldric · 27/07/2013 10:31

Good luck waves :)

madoldbird · 27/07/2013 10:35

Sending loads of love positive vibes to you and acrobat. Can't wait for news.! Grin Grin

AgathaF · 27/07/2013 10:44

Hope acrobat has arrived safely now waves.

MrBloomsMarrow · 27/07/2013 10:51

Mooing noises definitely a good sign. Seem to remember that I sounded like a seriously injured hyena. I think it's good that acrobat held on until the morning so that your army of supporters and online aunties will all be awake. Xxx
