Ohhhhhhhh guess what ladies, i just had a show and im a bit excited about it really.

I was in pain all last night so maybe this is the start of things for me............. YAY

Well done Tracey! You deserve a medal after that long labour. Mine too was over 24hours long.....it certainly caught up with me on day 3 when I was a basket case after no sleep for days.

Hope Tracey makes a speedy recovery, congrats on being #1 for June due dates. Look forward to a photo.

Good luck KAZZLE........

Yippee Tracey! Will have to start updating our due list with babies born now!



Had a really rough night - lots of pain when I was awake, thought it may have been the start of something but after all last night and then most of today about 2pm things seemed to have mellowed to not as much pain.

Didnt think it was labour type pains, but had pain across shoulder blades then lower back then front alternating. Very tiring!

Have added another batch of soup to the freezer for easy to heat meals with some nutrition - was really yummy potato and leek which barely made it to freezer as I wanted to eat it all. Am becoming very Martha Stewart as have never made soup etc before and now I'm a soup machine

Very bored today - too sore to be bothered going and doing anything, but not sore enough to be pre-occupied. Started listening to an audiobook called "Secrets of a Demented Housewife" that is very light and amusing, especially as some of the things she says reminds me of the conversations in here from those with young kids already! Worth a read/listen if anyone is in need of some humour.

Im not lol..... Got hubby to 'help' lol but NOTHING and just got out of hot bath and NOTHING ...... *SIGH* Prob wont happen, ill end up going overdue, lol GREEEEAAAT!!!

Congrats to Tracey and good luck to whoever is next although it sounds as though things have settled down a bit.

I had a super busy day and wasn't off my feet until late this afternoon when I had a half hour nanna nap. Put bubs drawer unit back together after the painting had hardened and sorted her cothes and other stuff into drawers including nappies, wipes creams etc. Cleaned the rest of the room and put everything else from our storage room (now Alex's room) away somewhere - or it got chucked out.

I have even packed bubs hospital bag - but not mine yet.   This week maybe.

So now both children's (boy that sounds weird!!) rooms are finished. Will try to get photos tomorrow and post early next week.

We also went to Alex's hockey and they only lost 3-0 which is a major improvement on previous weeks. Afterwards we both went out to get a present for a birthday party she is going to tomorrow (while DH got her a present for her birthday next week). Then we had hot chocolate and something to eat at the mall.

Now I'm stuffed. NOTE TO SELF: Slow down!

So here's another TMI pregnancy side effect I cant work out... when I go to the toilet, number 1s, just before bladder is empty I feel a sudden dropping sensation, like he drops down quite suddenly and sharply onto bladder... it doesnt hurt so much as feel really wierd, like he's going to fall out... I'm finding all these latest things very interesting after ages of not much new stuff happening! (Note to self: get a life)

Aha I see... well, that was about the highlight of my day so I am glad that there is a reason tragic really!

Bloody sky keeps breaking up but only on a couple of channels and the one's I want to watch... grrr... if it keeps up I will have to watch Joe Dirt!

False labour is quite common with second labours, my midwife always makes a point of telling me that (think its so I wont call her till the head is half way out )

you can get your show 2 weeks before going to labour Amber , but still, getting it , is exciting .

Well, everyones talking about signs they're going into labour and I don't have any,mind you im only 36 weeks tomorrow, and he cant come til ......39 weeks, or after, because ive got C's birthday on the 8th , my big 7 year old !

The only thing ive got , is this blimming sore back , should have a bath, but ...ive got the season finale of Gossip girl to watch , so i'll watch that instead .

Finally , huuuuge congrats Tracey ! well done, my labour with C was just over 24 hours , all natural too , better be true that 2nd labours are often quicker !

right , Gossip girl awaits !
