Thanks for that, never even thought about the mess it would make, lucky we have a land crusier with heaps of room in the back.
Im glad you said not to worry about the cord Alan as i thought we would have to clamp it or something so that one less thing we will have to worry about.

How will i know the difference between pre labour and labour as the pains i have been getting seem to be regular but only last a couple of hrs then go away, should i wait till i cant talk through a contraction or is that to late.
