Sorry everyone, no baby today!
Sal had strong, 3-4 minute contractions from 1pm yesterday, they moved her to the birth suite from the ward upstairs where she had spent the night, at 6.30pm They finally did an internal at 11.30pm to find NO CHANGEfrom the Sunday night! Grrrrrr, still 3cm dilated with bulging membranes but contractions weren't strong enough to dilate her further.
Anyway, 'home' again in the caravan, Doc's say that it's easy to break your membranes at this stage, so it will hopefully happen in the next week or so. Happy he is still safe & sound, just struggling with the emotional ups and downs!
How very exciting for you, what an amazing job you've done getting your little one this far. All the best for your labour & birth....can't wait to read your BA!
WOW you guys, what a week. Your wife sounds like she is doing a phonomenal job of keeping your little boy safe, her body must just know that he needs to bake a little longer . And you sound like you are an amazing wife also, keeping the sanity. I bet little Charlie is super duper excited to meet his little brother. We wish you a safe journey, however much longer it may be.
