I too was wondering what happened with the curry 
Amazing birth story Kellie, thanks for sharing
I got grazes to the labia with Amber too and it was awful when peeing! Take a jug to the toilet with you and pour warm water on yourself when you go. Sounds odd, but it dilutes the pee and takes the pain away! x

I am so relieved Colchester were great this time, fingers crossed!
I had my pre op today, had to be there at 12 to have bloods, and then they said to go straight to ante natal assesment unit where they kept me waiting til 1.15!
But other than the wait I cannot fault them- we talked everything through, got the pre meds, they listened to baby, and the anaesthetist came to talk to us. When we first went in they said we were going to be second on Monday which is not going down until 11, i started crying about this when i got outside with Dave (got to love the pregnancy hormones! lol) but then later after everything was done the MW said she thinks we will be first after all, she is the one on duty Monday and she was lovely!
I am so relieved about alot of things, we talked through everything, and i feel alot calmer.....well until Sunday night anyway! lol.

I am going to charge my phone to the max the night before so i can post updates on here! lol
The MW was so kind, she said the skin on my stomach was good and that'll spring back after birth! lol, bless her, i hope so!!!!
Another bonus is they sorted us out a parking permit so instead of paying £10 a day we have got one for £12 for 7 days!!!! fantastic!

Aww glad it went well ally and that they've put your mind at ease, sure it will all go to plan, I am so excited for you!!
Haha ladies please do NOT use soapy water I didn't mean to write that earlier.. I am so tired I don't even know what I'm saying! Definitely just warm water with nothing in will be best, 1 of those little bottles is in my hospital bag!

haha liking the phone charging, gotta get those priorities right eh! Im shafted for letting people know if im in labour if he comes before the 16th! Both mine and Neils phones are cut off until his payday (16th) as we had some bills come out that we wernt expecting! So that means if he turns up, then nobody will know until I get home which sucks :S I guess if the worst comes to the worst I could put some money on ye olde patient-daylightrobbery-line and get online that way!
That's awesome on the car parking too, makes things loads cheaper. They are evil in hospital parking, one of the bills we just received (hence the no mobiles right now) was a parking fine for being 20 mins over the time at 4am in the morning on the 9th of last month when I was asked in to be checked over for cramps. 20 bloody minutes at 4am when the car park was completely dead and its cost us £70! grrrr

The curry is still sitting in the fridge! No way will I be consumming that! So peeing in the bath still stung, but not as bad. Honestly, the pain last time was a million times worse, least this is only occasionally!
So glad it all went well at hospital ally, ill be stalking like mad too monday!
I had my midwife today helping with breastfeeding for over a hour, he just won't latch now and I'm getting hardly any milk. We brought some little formula bottles to try, but he don't like them either! I just want my milk to come in so I can get pumping! X

Oh bless you, he's not making this easy for you eh! Good that the support is there from the midwives though. What's the plan from here? Continue trying to latch in the mean time or try to see if he will take the bottles? Hope it all just clicks into place for you soon
How are you feeling now besides a bit of stinging? x

My gosh Sarah thats insane! And such a stupid fine for such a small amount of time! I think the car park is daylight robbery, it annoys the hell out of me when u think right rush to the hospital, oh and money for parking!
That sucks about the phones being cut off until the 16th- those phone/internet/tv things they have by the bed are insanely expensive too!
Kellie- sorry to hear u r a bit stingy, glad its much better than last time. Wonder why he isnt latching now? What did the MW say? Keep perservering and then hopefully u can pump loads when the milk comes in!
