WOOHOO it's happening....FINALLY.....

It seems Labour Day is the day for me..

I crawled into bed around midnight after watching some terrible werewolf movie and by 1.30am I thought I had the need to go to the toilet urgently (TMI sorry) so I jumped out of bed... turns out it was just a trickle so I got back into bed and before long my waters broke :blush: yes, I had actually wet the bed... and then the wicked period type pains hit me!!!!!! It was constant at first (between 1.45 and 2.30 and leaving for the hospital) but then it died off somewhat until we were in the car and half way there then I was getting a few mild contractions

Raoul rung his mum as she was our ride upto the hospital, and I rung my mum before ringing the hospital who then told me it was my choice whether I came in now to be monitored or if i stay home until I was actually in established labour..I decided to be on the safe side that I would go in to ensure bubs was okay...
I was monitored and checked internally (OUCH) at about 4.30am and I was a whole 1/2 a center meter dilated LOL so I was given the choice to stay there and wait it out... or to come home and relax a bit and if nothing happens between now and 6.30pm to come back in... so I decided to come home (mainly so I could have a shower and freshen up a little bit since I was still kinda dreary from being woken up)

Keep us all in your thoughts and prayers today everybody and I will update again as soon as I can

40 Weeks

Well we made it through 40 grueling weeks so now it's just a waiting game as to when our little lady actually arrives..
(My mum and I spent the day shopping hoping that she would pack her bags but I have no signs and symptoms so far, so we'll just have to play it by ear)

I have an appointment next week Thursday @ 9.30am (if she hasn't arrived by then of course) to talk to the doctors regarding an induction date, and also to do a stretch and sweep/breakage of waters if I want them too! It sounds ICK if you ask me, but if it has to be done it has to be done. I mean, she's got to come out sometime doesn't she? :o)

SLIDE SHOW

39 Weeks 1 Day

Wow, I have been waiting for the single digit count down for so long and now it's arrived... 6 DAYS TO GO!!! I'm so excited and eagerly awaiting the arrival of our little Princess

Nothing much really to report here.. I have been having AF (= Aunty Flow for those who don't know :)) type tummy pains for the last 2 days and haven't really been able to walk unaided since Monday, so I'm taking that she could arrive any day now!! We're all sorted and now all we can do is wait... wait... and wait a bit more :) When she's 'cooked' I'm sure she'll let us know so that she doesn't burn LOL

(OMG check out my belly growth in 3 weeks!!!!!)

38 Weeks Down...

2 Weeks to go!!!

Keziah is getting lower and lower... any lower and she'll fall out without having to go through labour LOL if only it was that easy eh???

Have tried a whole range of different things that are supposed to aid the whole going into labour process..

~ Baths
~ Showers
~ Walking excessively
~ Nesting
~ Drinking ALOT of chilled water
~ Curry (is the most recent one, so we'll see if it works or not)

I still have a few more to try though

~ Evening Primrose Oil (supposed to soften the cervix if taken around this time)

~ SEX (although I don't really feel up to doing this unless it's absolutely necessary..I so don't feel "sexy" at the moment LOL)

37 Weeks 4 Days..

And now we're just doing the waiting game.
Lots of niggles but nothing too much out of the ordinary and definitely nothing that I couldn't handle pain wise... *sigh* I honestly think she has made herself quite comfortable and will probably end up having to get evicted LOL
