    Sleeping. My waters broke at 3am, ctx began right away but were mild and spaced 15mins apart so i went back to sleep in between them all until 8am. Gave birth on the same bed, in almost the same position (having moved around ALOT in between!!!) at 6.20pm.

    I was pottering at home and had just called to book an induction massage for the following week when I had my show at about 11am. I then tried to relax by going to the movies but had to leave and was having painful contractions by 2pm and gave birth at 7.30am the next day.
