Let the August Babies Be Born!

[October9]

I could cry after losing some or all of my plug lastnight/today and have cramps all night for them to disappear this mid morning. They haven't returned. Nothing I do seems to getting them back. I'm in 2 minds as to carry on trying to get them to come or just sleep as I was up all night I've only slept for an hour half since yesterday. Sleep or walk? Sleep or walk? Lol x

Can you sleep walk lol 😃

Think positive you've lost some plug!

I had my day unit assessment today, 2 hours later argh, consultant is happy for me to keep going for another week, then I'm back or another assessment and my induction will be booked. So this is either going to be the youngest in the school year or the oldest lol 😁 x

VickyLou, I vote sleep! Things are always worse when you're sleep deprived. I'd sleep, then walk!

Nothing happening here at 41 weeks despite sweep yesterday and midwife being hopeful it would work. Fighting the overdue-depression daily ...

 

[VickyLou]

Ended up having an hour and half, still feel like I could sleep the clock round. Now I'm bouncing on my ball while my other half cooks me some dinner. I'll eat and bounce and hope these pains come back

Started with some contractions but they aren't regular and only lasting around 30 seconds. Going to see if they keep going through the night x

Congratulations Laura, great news!

I'm struggling here, 40+11 little signs that turn into nothing. Know I'll regret induction if I agree to it but feeling very down about my body (already have a poor relationship with my body image anyway).

Thanks. I've worked my self up into a nervous wreck. I'm having it under general and so they have to put the catheter in before they take me to theatre. I know I'm in for bigger pain but it really freaks me out 😳 xx

Congrats Laura.
All the best suze, you just do what's best for you and the baby.

Waters broke 4.30. Baby girl delivered at 10.00. I was allowed a water birth despite GBS. Great experience, now just hoping this little one allows me a couple of hours sleep!
