I never had a show with Paige. I have had one this morning (I am pretty sure). Kind of odd coloured light browny mucus stuff (Sorry TMI!).
How long after this did you go into Labour etc??? I text the midwife and she just said ok. So I am going to go off to work and carry on??? -------------

just wanted to add, when I phoned my midwife to tell her she said it could still be another 3 weeks away, ( I was 39 weeks 1 day) I could have slapped her LOL!! ------------- Mum to Mr 10, Mr 6 and Mr 4

Yeah that's about right - all it basically means is your cervix is starting to dilate a little which is pretty normal to start happening from this stage onwards, does not necissarily means that it's going to continue to do so.. sorry. I would just take it easy considering you still have a *few* more weeks till bubs is really due, depends on what ype of work you do i spose, see how you go and just lay low. lol.. It is exciting though cos means your body it starting to get ready for labour. YAY! ------------- Janine and her 2 cool chicks, Paris & Ayja

Crickey! Exciting stuff!
I've also heard it can be another few weeks until things happen or a few days. Just take things easy and keep us updated of course! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I think mine happened the week before I gave birth? Can't remember exactly, but when I told my midwife I pretty much got the same answer as everyone else - that it could be another couple of weeks away. ------------- Jacquie - Mama to Erin, 13.07.06 - Chief Cat Chaser & Marmite Sammie Eater
