Thanks ladies. We are at the hospital now just waiting to check onto the ward. Bloods all taken etc.
Wow keynsham is so close to us clh. We are in Chippenham! I think char is relatively close to us too. small world.
I'm feeling absolutely horrible!!! I've got period pains, my lower back is absolutely killing me. I'm nauseous, have a headache and hot flushes. I'm having slight contractions but still not regular. I just put my girl to bed and am praying she'll go to sleep so I can relax in bed. I wish contractions would get regular or my waters woul break as hubby is in work, but I really want him home with me

I'm on the ward finally. Just spoken to anithesiologist (sp) and had my anti acid pills. Hardest bit so far was putting the stockings on dh looked like his head was going to explode he went so red.
Forgot to ask when I'm going down to theatre but it's either first or last as the lady next to me is second. It'll probably be last.
The very ones pebbie.
The first two ladies have just left the wars to go down to theatre and I've been told to put my gown on and be ready to go in an hour. Totally bricking it now. Anithesiologist said he wants to take another look at my back to check he can do my block as he's concerned about my scoliosis. Bit scared hell have to do a general.
Dh is fast asleep and snoring next to me. Fat lot of good he's turning out to be, he's been sleeping most of the day.
Well I don't think this sweep is working
My backpain has eased off and I've had like 4 contractions all day today. The only pain I feel now is a very sore cervix, a headache and still very nauseous. I went to lie down before but that gave me really bad period pains and backpain, but as soon as I got up and bounced on the ball it started to go! Ah well, 2 more days till induction. It's weird to walk around though, knowing I'm 3 cm dilated! Some women are in agony when they're 2cm.
I wonder if all they'll do now on Friday is break my waters? That really set off labour with Marielle and she was born 3.5 hours after my waters broke. That would be nice
Hope it is going well Zfbaby. The second May baby is ether born now or will be very soon!
When is your next appointment pebbie, Friday?
I had an appointment with the MW today and have to go back next week because my BP is up. However DS1 started to get drowsy again just before she started taking it so it was probably stress. Had to wait and see a GP for DS1 afterwards and she was much more helpful than the hospital was! Anyway I am measuring right again and he is apparently low. She said I was getting tightening's while she was examining me, although I couldn't feel them, and asked if I get them a lot but I got loads of BH's with DS1 and am doing again this time so it doesn't seem to mean much in my case. Lots of cramps for 3 weeks now too and nothing seems to be close to happening.
Had my 38 week midwife check earlier, baby is head down and 3/5ths palpable, no signs he's ready to get a wriggle on so appointment booked for 40 weeks the day after my due date, then she'll book sweep and an induction for 41+ weeks.
Almost certainly not going to be an End Of May baby for me I don't think!
But baby is OK and bp etc all fine which is good. He's measuring 41 weeks though but MW didn't seem to care!
