Need a spontaneous labour cheer squad

[Ginger]

wooo hooo springy!!!!

[Spring Angel]

You're all so sweet, I really do appreciate each post that you make.

Well had a growth and wellbeing scan, Bub is.... wait for it 3879kgs give or take 500grams. I know scans aren't very reliable but TBH it doesn't scare me, big bubs mean healthy bubs to me so bring on the chubby bubby.

All else seems well. I'm just totally exhausted. I have a couch waiting for me.

Spring xx

That's good to hear Spring. You do make sure you rest up thought wont you?

[Trillian]

Just popping in to send you some positive vibes & lots of strength Spring....although you've got it in bucket loads already I reckon. Just focus on harnessing the beauty and courage you already have inside.

Great news about your scan too!

Rest up xx

Thanks guys. I have an ob appointment today and I'm positive induction is going to come up. DH is getting off work so he can come with me thank God. I think he felt horrible he couldn't be there for me last time given how upsetting it was. I'm almost certain they will offer a S&S but I'm going to say no (yet again )

I'm not feeling nervous, just hope it isn't the same ob as last week.

I'll update later in the afternoon.

Spring.

[Tanya]

Good luck SA Just gently deciline all his offers

DO you mind if you have a Christmas baby?

[Spring Angel]

Don't mind a Christmas baby at all Tanya.

ETA: Thankfully DS is young enough that we could re-schedule Chrismas for a few days later. I actually think a Christmas baby is kind of exciting.

[~Trish~]

Best of luck today Spring . You are doing SO well, I'm very proud of you

Sending you some labour prayers and vibes. Here's hoping for a Christmas baby!

[Arimeh]

Woot! a christmas baby would be awesome!

Keep relaxed and start dancing!!! That'll bring bubs on

You're so strong Spring xxxx

[Mak]

You are doing so well! Stand firm - you will get there. So glad your DH is on the same page and a support for you. Won't be long! xxxx

[Michelle71]

Spring - very pleased DH will be there with you today. Stay strong and continue to walk the path that you are most comfortable with. Don't let them distract you from your goals

[Lenny]

You are doing well Spring - staying strong and sticking to your plan. Bring on the chubby bubby for christmas!! At least the hossy would be nice and quiet

[beckoes]

Hope the app went ok for you today and you didnt have a bad experiance like last time!! A christmas baby would be lovely!
Hugs!

Ok guys, temptation is setting in.

A question, is a S&S a form of induction? I know it might sounds stupid but TBH I don't know if it is formally a type of induction. Will it impact the labour like ARM or the drip? Eg make you go from 0 to 100% instantly. Will it have the negative effect such as higher chance of intervention?

Thanks.

Spring

You must have posted at the same time i did. i had a S&S and i wouldnt have it next time. I did find that i missed all the little things that led to a natual labour.
I had the S&S at 7am, had a walk and a sleep and then at 4pm i suddenly had strong contractions, i may have been being a sook but it was suddenly 4 mins apart and was having trouble talking during them.

[Spring Angel]

Oh wow Beck, how many weeks were you? How long did your labour end up lasting? I had a S&S with DS two and it didn't do anything except I lost my plug.

My appointment isn't for another hour and a half though. So I have time to think some more.
