Is it time for countdown?

[HeyWayne]

Not the programme (t'won't be the same without Carol *drools), but Bean day.

Last night LadyWayne said she felt as if she'd been riding a bike - a bit achy round the lower belly.

Midwife arrived this morning for our home visit (I was unfortunately at work), but she said that it looks like Bean is moving into place.



I say again...

[FionaH]

oooo how exciting!

[zazen999]

OMG

Stay calm our HW, stay calm.

[piskieinboots]

.....and breath
*fuuu fuuuuuuuu

[SarzWix]

'Twill be ages yet, don't fret

[HeyWayne]

'Twill be ages yet, don't fret

Oh, I'm zen master at the moment - (it's the drugs), and LadyWayne isn't at all concerned.

However, when I get "the call" things may change.

When I'm stressed I go quiet, so you'll soon know...

[jackie j]

The head has dropped into posistion.

[SarzWix]

Think I was 2 weeks from the head engaging to labour starting... Although everyone's different, and none of mine were keen to depart!

[FROSTYFRECKLE]

I keep on saying Bean will be early - probably a bit early to say "I told you so" (But you have to take what I say with a pinch of salt cause I've never had children)

[SlugLobber]

Ooh! How exciting!!

[Seahorse]

When I'm stressed I go quiet, so you'll soon know...

Noooooooo! We're not having that! All Bean's aunties and uncles need up to the minute information at all times of the day and night!

[Nicos]

Dusts off old gynae brain cells...mmmmm ....I think the head can engage anytime after 34 weeks up until birth if I recall.( 36 is 'average')
did you say due date is 5th Feb?- tis about right then!

Plenty of time yet

At least LW will feel less stuffed 'up top' now- but may have the need to wee more often!!!!


....but then again....I could be wrong!!!!

DON'T PANIC MR MANNERING...DON'T PANIC.......:0

[Bephlam]

[MaureenHall]

Get the towels ready and the kettle on!!! and keep it on - the midwives will want lots of cups of tea

due date is 5th of feb, but LW and her mum have a history of being 'early'
hence the early dates on the beanie sweeps.

HW you ain't the type to panic, you are doing just fine, and when LW says' we have to go' you will do it in style, i for one will wait patiently to see what you get in the lucky dip of life
