Em, write it down
Apparently you have to use this language: I see myself clearly birthing my baby on Monday, 20th December [add in any other details you like]
Hey ladies! Just popping back in to say hi. Can't believe how fast time has flown! So many of you almost ready to have your babies! Very exciting.
For what it's worth, the night before Seth was born, I was feeling tired and sore and had a very busy day. DH helped me clean up supper and get the kids in bed, and then I put one of my favourite slow songs on YouTube and we just held each other and swayed to the music for a while and I bawled my eyes out. He gave me a great back massage later on, which ended up as many back massages end up..... anyways, I fell asleep feeling totally relaxed and physically and emotionally spent, and woke up with contractions. I think the combination of being ready, relaxed, and having that hormonal rush gave me that nudge into labour. If you're looking to help things along, I can think of worse ways to go!
Looking forward to reading a bunch of homebirth announcements and birth stories soon! All the best!
Oh - and things are good with all of us. Seth has fit right in, and though he's a lousy sleeper, he's become a very happy, smiley little guy who loves to coo and talk to his mum and dad and big sisters.
Cricket your little man sounds perfect! Thanks for dropping in and saying hi!
Marcellus - Happy birthing tomorrow morning my dear!!!!!! Will be thinking of you!
Em: Oh dear its only 80% right and you and i are both going to be writting the same date!!! Im off to get my paper now....we;ll see if either of us get lucky!
