    Oh lea i dont think i could hold out another 2 weeks either.... This is driving me bananas!!
    I woke this morn to a horrendus contraction lasting about 2.5 mins it made me think OMG this is it.. But no, im still here. Although i do have stomach cramps now, which is good in a way atleast i know things are happening..
    Tan i will get induced if i go over they wont let me go anymore than 4 days...
    Hope everyone has a productive day!!!!

    Well im still here and am preparing myself for a quick labour when it finally happens.

    OH last one i was induced with labour was 40 minutes and i didnt have half the pre labour symptoms Ive had with this one.

    Man, i just read a birth story in an Ina May Gaskin book. Lady had been having ctx for a few weeks on and off, walked up to the doctor's to get checked out. She was having a few ctx and pressure on the way up. Doctor had a wee look - she was dilated to 8!!!!!!!!! Gave birth 21mins later on his exam table. He let her stay a few hours to BF and recover and then she walked home with her newborn. I hope you girls all get easy dreamy labours

    I'm still here too

    I went to the hospital yesterday as i thought my water may have broken, but turns out it was just the baby moving positions and pushing firmly onto my bladder!!! My plug came away while they were doing the swab, and has continued to do so all night and this morning, surely there cant be any left lol Still alot of period pain so DH is getting me walking again today.

    I'm worried about having the baby too quickly and my DH missing it or having him at home, but i suppose i can't really control any of it

    GL everyone
