well 5 years ago today i was sitting impatiently for things to be over i was 9 days overdue and was due to be induced in the morning i remember doing all my last minute packing e.t..c gutted about not getting my homebirth but relieved that i was going to have the baby one way or another after 3 and a half weeks of slow early labour. ...
little did i know i was about to go to bed and go into labour at midnight and have my baby girl at 3.30am 5 hours before my booked induction lol
Arwen is 5 tommorow and i am due in just over a week would love to have baby although would hate to steal my dd's thunder on her birthday lol ...but how freaky would it be if i went into labour at midnight tonight especially as the 5's have been in my favour all along.
Arwen was due on 5th sept, born 15th sept 5 hours before induction 5 years on i am due on the 25th sept with baby no.5! spoooooky lmao.
labour vibes to those who need them.

Good Morning!
Imogen Grace Parkes arrived safely in this world at 17.28 on 13th September weighing in at 7lb 4oz. She was born in water at home quite quickly! Birth story when I have more time, but just want to say that home birth is the best!
Good Luck to those waiting,
Love Lins

Oh, i miss all the excitement of logging on every morning and finding out who's had their baby, July seems so long ago now
. I often look on the durrent due month but it's never as exciting as your own because you don't know the people like your own month except you ladies of course

Hi ladies,
Well the reflexology hasn't appeared to work, and midwife refused to give me a sweep as it is policy to wait to 41 weeks here and she had a student with her, so probably didn't want to be seen to break the rules. She also said in terms of home birth, she wouldn't be around this weekend, but was on call next week so if I wanted her then it was best to wait. I have every confidence in this midwife after the disaster of one I had with my son, so I think I am happy to wait...Still have the interfering mother in law visit looming that is going to spoil our new family time, which is one of the reasons I want baby out now...
Have been having niggly pains and tightening of the stomach, but not amounting to much. A few in the night woke me up, so may be things are starting to turn a corner.
Mara, I agree, September babies are coming thick and fast now. I can't keep up posting congratulations!
I'm off to entertain my two year old as Lazy Town has just finished!
Love, Luck and Labour Vibes to all,

Well I can safely say hernebaylooby that it wasn't me who stole your contractions... I am still here 40+3 today and absolutely no signs that this little one is going to make an appearance any time soon. I went to see a reflexologist this morning to see if she could get me going. No luck so far, although she did show me the places to continue to apply pressure to, so am giving Oz a job later on. My dad is disappointed, its his birthday today and I think he wanted to share it with his tenth grandchild! I've got six hours to grant him his wish!
Off to see midwife tomorrow morning. Am going to beg for a sweep. Hopefully, she will oblige. I don't see that there is much difference between having one Friday and waiting until Monday. The one I had last time didn't work, so am not anticipating the first one to this time. So the way I see it, we may as well get going with them
Labour vibes to all those waiting, and love and kisses to all the recent arrivals. Hope you are all well.

Just popping in to see if there were any new babies. Hernebaylooby, doesn't sound like it will be too much longer for you. It may not be early but it could be on time! Dizzymoo sorry to hear things didn't help last night, you can always keep trying
Mara, can't believe you're so close now!
Loads of labour vibes to all that need them, sounds like there's a few imminent!
