Hope everything went ok Chick... Keep us updated when you get back Xx

They are going to induce me on Sunday monring providing there is a bed.
He wasnt going to, wanted to wait 10 days but as soon as i said i will have to arrange a home birth as i have no child care for the 3 days over xmas he changed his mind and booked me in.

I should be greatful i guess but im not, all i keep thinking about now is that if something goes wrong and i end up having a section then i can kiss xmas with my kids goodbye

I have had a pretty hard sweep and the MW said i was favorable.

The consultant said he thinks this baby is going to be 9lbs 7oz to 9lbs 11oz, i dont belive that tho, im smaller than i was on Coby and alot more wobbley lol
I still think 8lbs odd.

Im so gutted today, i shouldnt be, i have an end in sight but its not good enough for me, how spoilt is that?! i just want to be home and settled for xmas eve.

I am now starting to feel bad that he will have his birthday right before xmas too, but Jase came up with a brilliant idea, we have 2 reception rooms down stairs so each year we will make one in to the xmas room (the living room) and the toy/computer room will be made in to a birthday room with balloons streamers banners etc so he knows its his birthday and its nothing to do with xmas.

Not worth me trying anymore things now, i have had all the currys, sex and pinapple i can stand and its not worked so i guess i have to wait untill sunday.

Im scared about being induced coz of the reaction i had on Coby but they are aware of it and said they will be on stand by in case it happens again so they can control it quicker.

I am so sorry its worked out like this for you Layla I really am Im sure by the end of it you will be so happy your wee man is healthy and with you. What a GREAT idea of Jases I like that idea! Someone sugegsted letting Caitlin have a summer party if she came too close to Christmas too as people seem to be busy etc this time of year but I think its just we panic rather than it being as much as a deal as we think - Down side is Christmas with yoru other 3 this yr! Think positive I will for you too ... it will all be OK if you get induced x I hope so

Sorry to hear you have to wait until Sunday hun, but again at least the end is insight for you...

I really hope everything goes well and you have a fantastic Christmas with the Children and Jase. the Idea Jase had is fab. That way you will always be able to separte the two. Don't feel bad about his birthday being so close to xmas. You made me see sense with this a few weeks ago that alot of peoples birthdays fall just before Christmas but it dosent make them any less special.

I hope you're feeling better about it soon hun I really do. Thinking of you Xx

Babe, I know you have a lot on your mind and you just want this over etc etc, but stop panicking!!! I know that is easier said than done, but you are putting alsorts of pressure on yourself!

I know it is unfortunate that you have to wait til Sunday, I would hate that too, but it is still plenty of time before Christmas. As for worrying about a C-Section, DON'T!!! Just stop that right now! Nothing is going to go wrong, they have all your previous history and a couple of years is a long time in medicine, so please babe, give yourself a break!

You still have plenty of time between now and Sunday to go naturally, and the fact that your cervix is favourable is a great sign! Maybe we should all put our hands on a picture of your bump and all at a set time pray and wish for labour to start......remember when that was done for the healing of Beckhams foot, what d'ya reckon?

Jase's idea is ace, I think that will be lovely and in another way, make it extra special, as that room is a dedicated birthday room....and kids love that sort of thing!

Keep positive.....you are not ungreatful or miserable in any way babe, you are no different to what anyone else would be like in your position! This is such an important time of year when you have kiddies.......but worst case scenario.....the kiddies would probably see baby as the best christmas present!

Stay calm, and get ready for that little baby of yours, he will be here real soon and you will wonder what all the panic and worrying was about.......x

thanks guys, you made me cry (in a good way)

Good luck Layla, I hope you get your baby before Sunday
