How's it going today hun? Any signs?

 

[mummylanning]

Nope, nothing! Looks like I will be being induced tomorrow. Not happy about it but what can you do!

 

[izzy29]

Same here mumlanning, this baby is never coming out!!! I am trying everything, well apart from resting but I feel the more I am active the baby might move down. I so don't want to be induced!!!!!!!!!

 

[mummylanning]

I went to a Bar Mitzvah last night and I was doing the funny little dancing they do which involves skipping in a circle of people for at least 5 mins, felt like forever (my DH is the Jewish one, i have no idea what the dance is called).... that didnt even bring it on!

I dont recommend it but there was a doctor and a paramedic in the room so I felt safe enough! Although i assume it would have the same effect as bouncing on a ball and walking sideways up stairs, just with more impact and at the same time!

 

[izzy29]

Sounds like a lot more fun too. I suppose these babies will just come out when the are ready and I am not de yet so I suppose I can't complain bu would so love to go naturally. 2 more nights bouncing on the ball and OH. He said he thinks I am trying to kill him lol!! He will be glad when this baby comes!!

 

[mummylanning]

It was great fun, if not just to see the look on people's faces!

Had a few niggles today and a bit more discharge but not holding out any hope!

 

[mummylanning]

[izzy29]

Going in for dinner time!! So emotional today. Dunno how I am going yo leave DD without having a melt down, esp in front on mil, how embarrassing, hope I can hold it together!!!

 

[holywoodmum]

Oh Izzy! wow
Lanning hope you're home having cuddles now!
I've been having irregular contractions all day - I'd have called them cramps, but one showed up on the CTG this morning - MW said it could be tonight or it could be next week - I'm not very good at the pain when there's no particular end in sight!

 

[mummylanning]

Ok guys, quick update!

On second pessary, finally got cervix to lower enough to break waters. Now just waiting for a spot on the labour ward. It could be tonight or it could be tomorrow. Either way I hope to be having cuddles by tomorrow night!

Hope you are ok izzy! It's been all a bit scary and emotional for me too!

 

[izzy29]

Nothing happening until 10pm, been here fir 4 hrs already doing nothing, knackered already!!

 

[mummylanning]

45 hrs after induction and still nothing. Still waiting for a bed on the labour ward. Just worried now that all pains have stopped! I don't want to go backwards!
