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.

Hi all, I'm having to hang around here at hospital for a while as they can't find acrobats head and are now muttering about possible breech position. So waiting for the on call obstetrician to finish theatre then she will be up to probably rescan me again. Quite a lot of pain, and would rather be at home, but there we go.

Twunt texted and stated he was drawing a line under yesterday's communications. It is still all about him, he doesn't give an actual shit about me so I wish he'd leave me alone now. Who does he think he is to say that HE is drawing a line when HE is the one being so horrible to the person he originally professed to love, then recently wrote a letter being all apologetic? And knowing I've been dealing with sick daughter and pains. Fed up.

Morning Waves I was out away from all modern technology yesterday, but was thinking about you whilst riding my bike over the Durham Dales to Hadrians wall and beyond, and hopefully sending you all the beauty that I could see there all around me .

Stay strong you amazing woman you! Flowers

Jux · 15/07/2013 10:33

Ignore ignore ignore. It's so hard not to let his crap get under your skin. Can you temporarily block his number so you don't keep getting jolts from him now? He just keeps jogging you out of the hard-won equilibrium you achieve.

Good luck with the obstetrician. Hope they don't take too long! Don't they know Waves and Acrobat are very important people ? Wink

dramajustfollowsme · 15/07/2013 10:46

Good luck Waves. Hope acrobat is in the correct position and things get going soon. Thanks

ClairesTravellingCircus · 15/07/2013 10:54

Hope you get seen soon and Acrobat's in right position.
Stay strong, try not to let twunt get to you (I know easier said than done), he doesn't deserve a millisecond of your thoughts xx

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 15/07/2013 11:03

Monday's child is fair of face and Rembrandt was born 407 years' ago. Hope you are being looked after, waves.

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 15/07/2013 11:13

Hi waves. Hope acrobat is head down thumbs up.

wavesandsmiles · 15/07/2013 12:39

Well, the consultant got delayed in theatre so they sent me home so I can go to DD's sports day, and they will call me back up a bit later. I will update when I know what the score is.

Twunt kept texting me, but seems to have accepted that I actually want him to piss off now, given his last text. I think the man is devoid of any normal human moral compass and is off the spectrum in terms of normal emotional responses. Quite angry and trying to shelve all that so I can focus on my DCs and acrobat. And if he is still reading this - yep, you completely fucked up. I was on the verge of thinking that there was a chance, but your complete inability to be anything other than a selfish, entitled prick, who doesn't actually care about anyone else has well and truly come to the fore, and I won't be falling for it again.

Have some YAY news though - the clothes I got from the vouchers arrived today. I am going to quickly name tag the uniform bits, and can't wait to see the DCs' faces when they see the little bits I got them for the summer. Couple of nice things for acrobat and for me too. I really don't know when I last had a treat, so it is definitely a smiley point in my day.

SpecialAgentTattooedQueen · 15/07/2013 12:46

OOh yay for the vouchers Waves!! Grin Lucky duck, you spoil your kiddies rotten with them!

So glad you treated yourself. God knows if anyone deserves to the world's largest _ < [insert food that won't make you feel sick] there, it's you darling! Flowers

What on earth was Twunt texting? Confused He told you to 'draw a line,' so...Uhm.. You did? By not texting him back? Hmm God he's a weirdo. And a huge control freak clearly!

When twee Acrobat arrives, can we have at least one temporary photo? >Huge sad puppy wanting a home eyes

themidwife · 15/07/2013 12:55

Yes Mr arsehole Waves - if you are reading this - the whole of mumsnet think you should piss off!

Glad you had a treat waves - you certainly deserve it! Thanks

SpecialAgentTattooedQueen · 15/07/2013 12:58

Cheerful wave to The Twunt

Just so you know Twunt, this thread can be shared on FB, twitter and copy/pasted anywhere... There are already American/Australian posters who despise you.

Congratulations loser. You're infamous. You earned it alll by yourself too buddy! :)

AgathaF · 15/07/2013 13:01

Ah, so pleased you got some nice stuff for the DC, Acrobat and especially for you.

Hopefully all will be well with acrobats position - might just be that his head is so deep in your pelvis now that they are struggling to get a good image, therefore can't conclusively say he is head down. Would explain all the contractions you have been having too.

Try to put all thoughts of Twunt out of your mind for a while, at least until acrobat is here, if you can. He is not worth the mental effort involved in keep getting upset or angry or wistful. He is just a nobber that you had the misfortune to get involved with (on account of his lying, manipulating personality). Your life and that of your children can proceed with minimal contact with the idiot, and hopefully at some point in the future, you will meet someone deserving of your love.

MissStrawberry · 15/07/2013 13:50

Go Waves! Go Waves!

Sorry, just wanted to say that.

Jux · 15/07/2013 13:51

Hey there Mr Twunt. You are one of the most despicable human beings I have ever come across - rl, forums, anywhere. You can now fuck the fuck off to the far side of fuck, and when you get there you can fuck off some more.

Jux · 15/07/2013 13:52

Yay for sports day! Hope you enjoy it, waves, and your lovely dd has fun in the sun Thanks

MustafaCake · 15/07/2013 14:03

Just de-lurking to wish you all the very best for the birth.

Sending good vibes your way (and a plague to your Ex)

PyroclasticFlo · 15/07/2013 14:44

Sending you lots of love and healing vibes waves (and joins the throng sticking two fingers up at Twunt).

I can't believe the front of the man, he really is astonishingly stupid, cruel and selfish. Keep him as far away from yourself and Acrobat and every part of the birth experience (and beyond) as you possibly can, Waves, he is poison. And such a twat that he can't even see it.

Hope things get moving on the labour at the most perfect and convenient time possible, and that all goes well Flowers

Thumbwitch · 15/07/2013 14:45

Hi Waves! Have been away for a long weekend so missed all the weekend drama but in a nutshell:
Hurrah for L1 leaving, and having the decency to clean his room properly.
Hurrah for good music and sports days
Hope the labour is reaching an end point very soon for your sake; c'mon Acrobat, time to give your mummy a break and make an appearance!

I am glad that whitesugar wrote what she did about her own experience because that's pretty much what I wanted to type to you when I read you were thinking of maybe having the arsewipe there for the last bit of the birth.
For one thing, he would probably have let you down anyway; but even if he had shown up, it would have doubtless have spoilt the moment for you. He would have evinced no care for you at all, and he might have done the "doting dad" thing but it would have excluded you and made you feel like shit. I suspect that there was a teeny bit of you thinking "But he'll be so overcome by the wonder of the new baby that he'll start being the man I thought he truly was again" - am I right?

But since he's been an utter twatface again since, my words aren't really needed, I'm pontificating for no good reason Grin except maybe for you to take on board in case you have another hiccup in your resolve.

Hope you manage to get through the whole sports day!

PedantMarina · 15/07/2013 14:57

De-lurking (and a small-ish name change since I first started following your threads).

Go Waves!
C'mon Acrobat!

Love and hugs to DC and DS, those stars of yours.

JaxTellerIsAllMine · 15/07/2013 17:11

jux the far side of fuck isnt nearly far enough for twunt to go!

waves Im sure I posted a message earlier - from phone, so no idea where it may have gone...

hope sports day is ok, stay in the shade if possible.

Also hope you get to see consultant today.

Thinking of you.

wavesandsmiles · 15/07/2013 18:00

Sports day was fine, DD isn't the fastest but she grinned throughout and had a lovely time. I escaped home after her races to get on with labelling the new uniform, it was so so hot.

Have just seen consultant and its great news. No breech baby, quite the opposite. Head is so far down into my pelvis it can't be felt at all by external palpation or something... I assume this is good regarding the potential arrival? He also has enormous feet (may have misheard but I think she said 8cm!) so maybe acrobat will have a second job as a circus clown. Now waiting for my notes then off back home to see whether these niggles and pains are going to do anything anytime soon. So longing to give acrobat a cuddle and to enjoy a day without being sick!
