Wow, it is all go! Mel and Eve, hope you are both ok.

Hann - keep going there, we're all excited for your news!

Simmy - fingers crossed you MIL is right then, you never know!
xx
 
Wow, so many news :)

Tor, big congrats! I can't wait for pictures. Yey!

Eve, good luck! I hope the induction goes well. You should ask if they have waterproof monitors so you can go in the water. I asked and they found out they had them (some nurses had no clue), so I was allowed in the tub.

Simmy, hope your MIL's premonition is right. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Mel, hope you feel better and that you get a good sweep! You can do it :)

Hann, good luck, hun! I hope the rest of the labor goes by fast and smoothly. I'm looking forward to good news from you :)

Samzi, I hope you go into labor soon!

Caz, :hugs: I feel for you. Try those gel pads you put in the fridge. They're made by Lansinoh and they're life savers.
 
Wow so much going on tonight!
Will just give you my update (boring in comparison to others!)!
So i called L and D this afternoon as ive had a headache over my right eye for 3 days now and nothing is shifting it. Having had a raised BP too, and then started feeling lightheaded, dizzy and was violently sick. They asked me to come in for monitering so off we went arriving about 415pm.
The midwife that dealt with me could not have been nicer, she went through everything, there was protein in my urine, and my BP was taken about 5 times each time it was higher than before.
I was strapped to the monitor for about an hour, baby was doing just great, no cause for concern, i had bloods taken out the back of my hand as they couldnt get a vein in my arm (hand now sore and swollen! lol) and we had to stay and wait for the results for about another 2 hours, a consultant came and saw me, happy that i didnt have PE but there is still concern over my BP so got to go back on thurs and have that re checked.
The consultant also advised me i could have a sweep there and then which i was very happy about as i was having to wait till friday for one, so that was done, my cervix was apparently very forward and long which is good, but quite closed at present, she did get her finger in but was quite tight. Anyhow she came out with a load of mucasy blood and said "thats your bloody show" so that was progress!
I am allowed another sweep on thurs if needed so am happy with that. So all ok am just glad i got checked out as has given me peace of mind at least.

Hann, sounds like you are making great progress! Am looking foward to baby news from you in the morning when i wake up!

Eve, sorry you arent getting the expericance you are hoping for but at least baby will be here safe and sound very soon. If its any consolation i now can no longer have a water birth due to my BP, i found out today.

Tor, congratulations to you! cant wait to see pics of your little girl and hear your birth story.


Thankyou to everyone for there supportive text messages etc. xx
 
Ahh Mel sounds like you have had a day of it!! Great news about the sweep and the show! I really hope things get moving for you soon! ;)

Thanks for all the updates everyone :)

Eve - hope all goes well
Hann - happy pushing - by the time you read this (if you get to read it) you will have your littl'un in your arms
Mel- hope things happen soon

Simmy, Jenni and Fi - hope things happen soon...
 
They've called me back to the hospital even though my contractions are manageable they haven't eased since the sweep and because the meconium was seen on the scan they have to monitor me more closely. Contractions are coming every 3-5 mins so they've kept me in. Still don't feel like I'm even in labour eventhough they said I am. Gonna try and get some rest

Its all happening tonight!!!

Hann - Good luck!!! Epidurals are fab hope you are pain free now!! Cant wait to hear what your yellow bump is!!

Eve - Hope things speed up so you can have little Atticus in your arms and get out, i know you dont like hospitals :hugs:
 
Good luck eve!

Ooh I bet Hann has had her baby by now! I still reckon she's having a boy! 8lb 4oz is my weight guess.
 
Hann and Eve, good luck! :) Looking forward to more updates.

Mel, how are you feeling? Any better?
