As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details.

When it get's close to the time.. just walk round and round the supermarket with a really full trolley, and hope they break... I think you get your shopping free if your waters go in some supermarkets... correct me if I'm wrong ?  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | it depends on the individual i think, if your waters go and your home and your comfortable then id say stay at home as long as you can bearing in mind the travelling times, get your bags ready when ur ready i did mine maybe 3 weeks before theres no harm having it all done !! and when that time comes you can jump in the car and be off xx |

I live in Thailand and i don't think they would give anything for free if that happened. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | The way I use is the 4-1-1 method. You should go to the hospital when your contractions are 4 minutes apart, lasting 1 minute for 1 hour, regardless if your waters break or not. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I think it depends... my waters broke at 2 or 3 am I think and Seth was born at 830am. My labour started with my waters breaking though, and I don't think many do.
