Just had a phone call to say Daughter 1's waters have broken.............Oooooooooh no sleep here tonight, :o :o :o :o ;D
any news?
Nothing much happening yet, she has been told to go to the hospital early thismorning.
I have picked strawbs, put gammon on in slow cooker, potted on some caulis, sown some swede,deadheaded the hanging baskets...........and that was before 8am. ;D
Hope all is well and you have some news soon.
Hope all goes well.... fingers crossed. ;D
Let us know what time we all have to start pushing !!! XX Jeannine
Thinking of you Emags and sending easy birth vibes to your daughter! All the best Em x
:) Fingers, toes, and everything else crossed too!!!!!
It was a year ago this week I was right where you are, finger nails have all grown back now though ;D
Emaggie. How exciting, hoping you soon have news so we can send congratulations. Must be something in the air, almost a flood of new babies to A4A families. Don't forget the pics.
Lorna.
The hospital sent her home at 11am and said to go back tomorrow if nothing had properly started by then. She was back there by at 12.30 and her lover said she wasn't saying too much, but when she did the swearing made his hair curl so I guess it will be today.........oh pleeze, oh pleezse..... ;D.
Been to plot, cut grass, done some housework, can't concentrate on crossword, can't concentrate on Afternoon Play, going to fiddle about in the garden.....alway something to do out there. ;D
Oooh Maggie, this is so exciting, now you will have us all on tenterhooks... I can imagine you must be so fidgetty, I know I would. Does she live near enough so you can visit today? Oooh, can't wait to hear your news, thinking of you... ;)
Aw shame. I kept getting sent home and it was driving me mad. So frustrating when you think it's all go.
i am excited now!!
Can I push yet,
I've got loads of water boiled and piles of clean towels. Can't think why really but they always have in the films. ;D
Oh and I'm doing the breathing too!
What is it about babies coming, I keep going back and back again to this thread, I don't know your daughter's name so in my thoughts I have called her Wee Maggie.
Come on Wee Maggie!!
XX Jeannine
Cup of tea anyone?
IT'S A GIRL. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Only know brief details- 6lb 14oz, born at 3.30. Her name is Jess.
Waiting to speak to daughter now.
Thankyou all for pushing so hard, it obviously did the trick. ;D
I'll have that tea now please Grawc. ;)
Yes, I knew all that looking would pay off, can I breathe now, I will have that tea now. XXXX Congrats !!!! XX Jeannine

Aw lovely! Beautiful name. Pics soon please!!
One to be going on with..... besotted grandmas with Jess ! SM is so lucky. If I could have chosen a M-i-L for her, I couldn't have done better.
Grawc, we would be honoured to have you as a cyber Godmother, God or not ;D
You realise you are responsible for the teachings of wayward habits,education in drinking decent scotch whiskey and eating fine foods.(she will like salmon- her mother doesn't ::))
Jeannine, it's Stephanie.
Thankyou all so much for your kind wishes, I shall print them off and give them to Stephanie and Brett. If ever a man was in love, it's him, he hasn't stopped smiling all day ;D
Congratulations from me - just read through this thread - quickest labour ever :). You must be delighted & such a lovely name too.
P.S. Glad to see we are all celebrating in a similar manner. We have managed a bottle of wine and all of the plum gin between phone calls.
Lorna, have another, and Grawc shove a scotch in the tea and Rosebud, Cheers. ;D
