[lorna84]

your doing Fantastic hun

I hope things speed up for you real soon

 

[Maybebaby80]

You re doing very well!

My MW has recommended getting energy drinks for labour as they are good for keeping your energy levels up - maybe get someone to pick you up some lucozade sport or something like that for later?

 

[Shinning_Star]

YOu certainly are, well done you!

I think that's stupid if your in pain your in pain everyone will need pain reliefe at different times. It's also natural for contraction to slow down when lying down as gravity's not helping the pull. I idn't really get a white discharge, mine seems to be like beginning of a period I have a blood show and thats when things kick off for me, so thinking prob about 3-4 cm I guess when I've needed pain relief.

Good Luck hunni, hope all gets moving on down real soon! I've only just popped over to second tri yesterday out of curiousity and now am hooked! lol

 

[mum2beagain]

[Zarababy1]

awww hun so sorry its dragging for you! have u got a birthing ball? Hopefully once ur waters brake things will start too speed up! come on ava!!!

 

[Celesse]

Long Latent phase is my biggest Labour fear.
Are you gonna get an epidural when they let you in so you can get some sleep?

 

[MrsQ]

oh hun just tell them your fed up and you need pain relief this is a joke!!!!

 

[Shinning_Star]

Yeah they can't just say tough luck. I'd be infuriated! But at the same time maybe they don't have room for you! What happened to the other lady who you though you may bump into.

One of the ways our midwives gage it is if you can talk through a contraction. I guess the other option leave it and then just call an ambulance.

 

[Tink1o5]

thats so messed up. IM sorry hun try and relax if you can. Maybe get in a warm bath.. keep up the great work

 

[lottie_2007]

Aww hun you sound like you're doing really well, hope it speeds up for you! x

 

[sun]

Grrr - I can't believe they won't let you go in?? Can you just go in anyway? You have been awake for so long if you could get some pain relief you could sleep for a few hours to get your strength up. Agree with the poster who suggested energy drinks. Also - make sure your eating if you can!

[FlowerFairy]

Oh Purple.I am so sorry this is dragging out for you! Come on Ava

 

[blackrose]
