Archive for July, 2008

The time has arrived.

I am in labour now.  Contractions are every 15 minutes but I can’t go to the hospital until they are every 10 minutes so here I am sitting at home breathing through it all.  It isn’t too bad to be honest.  I know it is going to get worse so I am just thankful that right now I can manage with the pain.  I am taking co-codamol which is helping a lot so I should manage to get some sleep tonight.

Just contractions so far.  I’ve still got my mucus plug, my waters are still intact and no bleeding.  As soon as that happens it is hospital time, whether contractions get to 10 minutes or not.

Today (22nd July) is my due date, which would be amazing if she was born today.  According to all the books only 5% of babies are born on their due date.

Next update shall be the birth announcement!  Crazy stuff!  I can’t believe I am going to be a mummy sometime in the next few days.
