Ooh lovely another smooth home birth

My mum told me tonight that she was told after birthing me that she had a knobbly cervix. Ofc she didn't think to ask what this meant at the time as it was the 70s and she did what she was told. Anyone ever heard anything about this? Not worried but there are some things passed down ya know. Also she said I never engaged so I won't stress too much if this baby doesnt. Don't think I'll stress anyway tbh but this gives me another reason to be calm.

Oh my god was just walking from the bathroom to the bedroom to go to bed and I got the moat horrible cervix pain that I actually doubled over holding my bump and contemplated sitting on the toilet for a bit incase my waters went ha ha. I managed to get there just in time with Imogen. Had a bh and little cervix pains since. I've not felt right since this afternoon so think I'm thinking too much. Only 6 days till I'm 37 weeks and keep thinking it'll happen before so I don't get my hb lol. I need to get clary sage for a few weeks time, keep forgetting!

Is it that radix muscle soak which has clary sage in it? I've got some of that. Don't you think it smells of mens shower gel or aftershave ha ha. X

Congrats Diz!!!

We settled on a name for baby boy! Benjamin Alexander Ray. I couldn't pick between the three so decided to use all three. Think we will call him Xander.

Oh, so my boys are 3 1/2 years apart in age to the day! Brennan was born 5.22 and Xander on 11.22. I just have babies on the 22nd I guess.
