Firsttimetry's, this is it thread

Woohoooo! I had a feeling I'd find this post when I logged on, good luck!

And Wishing Well, sometimes they won't wait that long, it depends on the hospital etc. Same thing happened to me with my first and second; first time, they wouldn't even wait 24 hours, and with my second they were willing to go 48 hours - I started contracting just 2 hours before they were due to induce me.

Anyway hope the contractions have kicked in by now - and if not that they kick in soon Looking forward to an update!

good luck! xxx

Thanks honey. Btw when you started contracting before the inducing did they still keep you in to give you the antibiotics? I've started with a few contractions but am worried they'll send me home xx

As your waters have gone (and especially if you're now contracting), it's highly unlikely they'll send you home (if not nigh on impossible!). Once they confirmed my waters had went, both times they made it clear I wasn't going home without a baby.

How far apart are the contractions hun? When are they due to check you over?
