    What a frustrating time you've had... well, bubs probably knows that he needs to do a little bit more growing before making his grand entrance!!

    Sounds like your bub is a smartie Tan! I'm glad he's hanging in there, as I said earlier, every day will make a difference

    He is a clever little bub, a bit annoyed at everyone introding on his space, and fighting against the contractions, i think we will buy him a pair of footy boots cause he is a pretty strong kicker. Last few days he has had alot of practise.
    Emma (DD) was a little upset we didnt have a baby today , but like i explained to her we want to be able to bring him home with us and not have him stay in the SCU, so this is the best thing for him.
    Now if i can just ignore these contractions until they kick on.

    Hi all we are still hanging on, feels like things have come to a stop this morning, things feel really weird now, i guess after 6 days the body would feel the effects, its a bit uncomfy to walk and my pelvis feels like its opened a bit.
    Thanks for all your well wishes and support

    HI all again just to let you all know how things are and to thank you all for your support.
    Well we have made it to 36 weeks. yipee.
    Last night had some good strong Braxton Hicks for about an hour or 2, then nothing, been feeling fine today although have been nesting again.
    Went to the loo about an hour ago and have had more bloody mucus discharge, i am now wondering how much can be left. The back ache has started to return.
    This little man is really keeping us guessing.
