Justine: I was really hoping the little guy would make his appearance last night, but no such luck. My doctor says he will come soon. It has become very difficult to sleep at night, as last night I slept in a recliner. I had contractions all night long, just not regular ones. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for tonight or tomorrow morning.

Regards,
Tammy

Wow Tammy, I'm so excited for you. Can't wait to read your news.

Go and get some rest, it's not called labour for nothing!

Looking forward to seeing Andrew on photobucket any day now.

Lots of love and wishing you a very quick labour

Just wanted to add my wishes for a safe and speedy delivery. It certainly sounds like you will be meeting Andrew before too long.

Take care and I can't wait to hear all about it.

Cheers

Ladies:

Thanks so much for the well wishes!! I had an OB appt. today and have not progressed since last week. I was disappointed, as I cannot sleep at night due to contractions and having to pee every 40 min. My dr. gave me some sleeping pills to help with the sleeping and I go back on Monday. If I have not had the little guy by Monday, we will induce on Tuesday morning!

Regards,
Tammy (impatiently waiting for Andrew)

Hello Ladies:

Andrew was born on February 28 at 2:05pm. He was 8 lb 7 oz and 20.5 inches long. I went in Wednesday morning, water was broken at 8:05am and he was born vaginally at 2:05pm. The doctor had to use vacuum extraction, since I could not push him out and he was in distress. He is beautiful!! I will try to post pictures to photobucket later.

Sorry I don't have time for personals, but we just arrived home last night.

Regards,
Tammy
