Just throwing myself a pity party.. after days of false labour, my plug coming away etc today.. nothing.
You would think I would be happy to have a pain free day but nope, now I am just depressed that nothing is happening! After hours and hours of contractions yesterday I must say it was major let down when I woke up this morning... it meant it had stopped and was all for nothing. So that is my woe is me post.. anyone else want to join in? -------------

 Mel!!! How frustrating thinking things were starting and then it fizzling out over night. Boo! Hopefully it will all mean things will happen nice and "easy" when they do get going though.
Here is my moan - I am HOT. So over the heat. And apparently (according to everyone else in Singapore) it's not actually a hot day today 
But I can't complain really. I think I was so expecting to be over being pregnant by now that I have surprised myself and am feeling (mostly) quite good and enjoying it. Starting to wonder when *something* is going to happen though. ------------- SJ Callum - Dec 2008 Daniel - Oct 2010 |

LOL Jake does the nipple stimulation when he feeds 
Sex is what made my plug come away and its hard to be sexy when I have hurties LOL Curry, no... might have one for lunch tomorrow but my bowels are already, um, questionable. Went for a short walk uphill today and having been bouncing on my swiss ball. You name, I am doing it LOL Soon could be in the next 3 weeks and thats fine if the false labour stays away
Oh the joys heh! -------------

I remember that feeling very well with Ty...especially after C's stepmum stole my due date and I went another week over with the false labour, being 4cms dilated for 4 days etc.
I walked a 2 hour walk , I went up Eastern Beaches 96 steps, I ate hot curry , had sex, walked up stairs sideways, lay on my bath sideways....in the end it was the threat of induction that got him moving. ...Start threatening. -------------
