Update!
So Sal has been having contractions since Sunday night, nothing regular but getting more intense. Coming every 2 - 3 mins for 15 mins, then stopping totally for 20 mins then every 10 minutes for an hour, then a cluster againl.....you get the drift. The Docs have been saying that it looks like labour has started, the Neonatologists have come for their talk about a 30 weeker, the midwives are monitoring but.....
NOTHING...!!!
I know it sounds weird to be upset that he isn't born yet, but we were convinced this was it, he was on his way and at 30 weeks ( or very nearly ) his chances were excellent for coming home perfectly fine. After 6 LONG weeks in a square hospital room, eating **** hospital food, having newborns and their Mum's as roomates crying all night and day, not being able to even PICK UP Charlie and give him a hug and being in almost constant pain for three freaking days, enough was enough! We just wanted it done and the three of us back together again ( albeit in a caravan 10 minutes from the hospital ) and to know that our new little boy was here and we were almost done!
So, cervix is still the same length and is still closed, so we are no closer to meeting our newest son. The pains are showing no sign of letting up OR getting stronger so no one knows what is going to happen. Will full labour kick in? Will they stop and we will get to 32 weeks?

It's a bit of a whinge thread today, sorry guys, we are REALLY happy to have gotten here at a 'safe' 30 weeks instead of a measly 24 but it's been really hard for Charlie not to have his Mummy for that long too.......
