As I seemed to be having a remarkably drawn out pre-labour, I thought I'd keep a 'progress' report. So where had we got to last time I posted? Oh yes, intermittent contractions from 3am and throughout Monday and a show just before midnight on Monday. Well yesterday, Tuesday, was fairly uneventful with contractions scattered across the day like the snow - the tiniest vague amount throughout the day, to the point that if you blink, you miss it! Had another trip to the Alex, this time planned to meet Mr Bosch the anaesthetist. My early epidural is all agreed and I was dispatched with a lovely information sheet... which I still haven't read, Doh!
Started with 'nice' regular contractions at 6am this morning, 45 seconds a pop every 15 minutes. 'Woo hoo, maybe this is it?' I thought. But no, by 9am they'd completely stopped again. Marvellous. So I'm back to random, intermittent and apparently pointless contractions. God knows how long this could go on for! The general consensus seems to be from a few days to over a week... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!
Will Dylan ever put in appearance? Currently he's far too bloody comfy sitting tight and causing trouble. Bodes well...
