Boris70 Posted October 31, 2007 Author Share Posted October 31, 2007 but if you ask any midwife, the best way to effectivly administer this type of prostgadin is erm . . . orally. I've read that too - funny how that bit of research was carried out by a man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Sounds like you will get your baby soon. There is no predicting these things my first was three weeks early and my second was two weeks late ( 5 weeks more of pregnancy ) and my third was one day late. You have got us all on tenterhooks now, sending positive vibes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunty e Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 My cat is now in the first stage of labour, which is much messier than I imagined. I'll try and waft her contraction vibes your way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Farm cats sound much easier - they just appear with eight week old kittens not so easy to catch to have them spayed though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty e Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 I'm terrified for her. Poor little love. She keeps sitting in my lap. I'm quite sure she's not going to have them in my lap though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krysia Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 I know it's easy for me as Ash was born over a year ago now and all the waiting does become a distant memory. Sit down with a cup of tea (Raspberry of course to soften the cervix!) and a good book. The gripping the better, then just as you are getting to a ppoiunt where you really need to knwo whats going on and can;t read fast enough the baby will probably come to say hello! GOOD LUCK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 I hope all goes well and baby makes an appearance soon I'm expecting my first in April so have been reading any baby / child related threads with great interest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Best of luck when baby eventually arrives. My second arrived 10 days late - and thus on my birthday! Not the present I was expecting . From one Vicki to another Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahJo Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Hope all goes well when it does happen - My 1st came out at 36 weeks - waters broke, in breech and c-section. 2nd 38 weeks - breech, c - section, but bless the little so and so - did threaten to appear at 32 weeks, so gald of the extra time. Vicki - I had Ben on my birthday too - best pressie ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pepe Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 I had those braxton hicks months before, he was due on bonfire night, but came 10 days late, went into labour after a big dinner just as the 6 o'clock news started that was nearly 22 years ago, but I remember it as if it was yesterday, enjoy every minute of it, time goes by so quickly, good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris70 Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 I'm still here - not much of anything is going on - just hoping it is going to be soon. Feel shattered today, so won't be doing much - oh, unless labour starts and then I'll be really busy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jomaxsmith Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Boris, Sympathies to you - those last couple of weeks take forever after the 8 long months of waiting. BUT make the most of it - your life (and mind and body) will never be the same again! You can't imagine how this tiny s"Ooops, word censored!" who eats/sleeps/cries in a monotonous routine can take up so much time and energy! My ds1 was born on his due date and I 'knew' he was coming because I got a real urge to stick close to home. I therefore assumed his brother would be early and of course the little sod was 8 days late - he's been a contrary sort ever since! I'm not that far from you, I think, if you need any animal-related help. Good luck - it's all terribly exciting and if I didn't remind myself just how hideous three year old boys can be I would be getting very broody!
