    Quackles is currently being induced (due in hosp 8am on the 16th) so fingers crossed she has an easy time and her and her bundle of joy are introduced safely and swiftly.

    Oh man, I hope she has an easy time... hey, wait a minute, not this easy!!

    Nothing stirring today, methinks this baby is waiting for its due date!

    Had another sweep a while back.. doctor would prefer I not have the baby in the night time because of the diabetes, so she's administering more gel tomorrow morning at 6 and then reviewing me at 11, with the hope of breaking my waters.

    She said I should have baby by 3pm tomorrow. But you never know, might go on my own anyway.

    The feet are walked off me now! I have a path worn into the halls :) Brought the laptop and mobile modem with me, so I'll let you ladies know how I get on!

    You can't call it a real boards addiction til you've posted from the maternity ward ;) Although from the labour ward would be even better!

    Indeed, may it be a six pounder who comes out when I sneeze :D

    No sneeze today :( I'm officially losing my mind!! I just want go home! I'm having painless contractions every 5-6 minutes, I'm trying to convince myself they're getting stronger, but it's probaby wishful thinking. It's probably a good thing, too, I'm too tired to have a baby tonight. Watch this space - I might have a baby in time for my 30th birthday. In February. Yes, I'm feeling sorry for myself, I think I've earned that right :)

    Well there was to be no posting between those contractions! Going from 3 to fully dialated in 2 hours sounds great, but is not easy at all!

    Anyway, it's a boychild! Euan Thomas was born at 6.41 yesterday evening, he's 8lb 6oz of pure gorgeousness! Looks just like his big brother, except with blonde hair!

    They would have allowed me to go home today, but suggested I stay on another night to get the hang of breastfeeding, which I did, as I'm not very confident at it and I need all the help I can get!
