Lis - I definitely know what you mean about patience levels with the toddler!!! It is like patience just went out of the window!!!!
I hope that your pains actually do come to something for you!
Ali - Glad you had that amazing experience in preparing for bubs. No matter what anyone told me when pregnant the first time, it was impossible to prepare for bubs really! Even this time, I still feel somewhat confused!
Shel - hope you are getting some rest!
Jelly -hubbys just don't really get it!!! I keep trying to prepare my hubby for having toddler all on his own when I am in hossy. But he has rallied his sister and mother around him to help out...I keep saying that DS needs his Dad when Mum is away. He even texted a mate about the start of the new Austag footy season which starts Tuesday night and said I was being induced Monday but could make the first game on Tuesday...I said who is going to look after DS????? He will be in bed asleep or need to be bathing and being put to bed....His response was - Oh, Mum could come around!!!! Little does he know DS is going to probably be spacking out - because I have only ever not put him to bed once in his life when we went to a wedding and I was home by 10pm for when he woke in the night!! Ah, hubby you just don't get it!!!
DS is at childcare so I am off to watch a DVD - probably last day ever (well for a few years) that I will have to myself!!!
I am still here and going on strike......kiss of death was phoning the hospital....seriously what was I thinking Midwife said it all sounded promising and that this one may not need inducing.....but hey what do they know................Im just gutted cos I really thought yesterday was the day, I havent had the full on contractions for hours on end before, but they never turned into anything regular and then fizzled out.
Fingers crossed M2W and Ali B you have 48hours to get moving - time to scrub some floors
Something I want to mention I had a 2nd degree tear with dd and its starting to itch, like its getting ready but hey just another sign of nothing ggggrrrrrr
Shell we are nearly there....at least that is something
Well, thought it might have been it last night...early evening had a lot of downward pressure and period pain. At 7pm contractions started and were every 7-10mins until 8.45pm. Then I said to hubby - I think bubs just backed up the truck!!! She moved - saw the bump go upwards and pressure relieved in pelvis. Then not another contraction!
She really doesn't like the smallest contractions! Can't believe it...and now it think she has disengaged again! Fingers crossed she doesn't turn prosterior now!
Looks like 5pm Sunday night will be my first trip to hossy! One more night at home for me...
So cleaned the house this morning...will restock the fridge again this afternoon and do my ironing for the suitcase again!!
Sorry to hear your contractions fizzled too Lis! So frustrating, isn't it!
Well I am still in one piece and not a happy chappy. No niggles or anymore contractions and it sux!
This waiting thing is just poos and I swear the next person who rings to say "oh your home, havent you had her yet?" I am gonna reach down the phone and cheerfully throttle them!!!
Can you tell im in the angry had enough driving my family insane stage??
