Looks like today might be the day folks. After a panic about lack of movements last night we went to hospital to get checked out. Everything was fine but the machines picked up that Charlotte had started contractions.
Those contractions have got more powerful through the night and a lot more constant.
Unfortunately for me, it's a chemo day. I'm back at hospital at 9.30am and 1.30pm today. Not what I need, although I will explain my situation when I get there and see if anything can be hurried along.
Wish us luck!!
Wow!
From a similar starting position, it was at least 30 hours before our first one finally appeared!
Exciting stuff though. Good luck!
Back in for my chemo treatment now. Left my partner in her mother's company. Hopefully be home within the hour and get to witness the birth. Very excited.
RPH have been wonderfully accommodating today.

What a woman I've managed to snag. Sorry for the poor sexist terminology but that is how I feel. Like I don't know how I've been so lucky.
18 hours of contractions and she's still going strong. Still no baby but this woman is amazing.

Absolutely nothing, nearly a week overdue now! We're both doing fine, I've had Saturday, Sunday and Monday feeling not so bad which is a massive positive.
Hair started falling out this weekend, I've got a patchy beard and thinning hair now. Once the hair looks ridiculous it will get shaved off, exposing my alien shaped head.
My son had one of those when born.. He was over 11 pounds so assume that the ET head was down to all the squeezing but compared to my first he popped out a few days over.... From memory my daughter was 10 days overdue... It's normal for a first mate... Keep that chin up, all will be well for you and the little one.... it is written and will all come together.. 😉

There is no other feeling like welcoming a child to the world. Those first few moments together are so precious, savour them 💙
