Along with gillybob, glamma and, I think, MissAdventure (?) I'm waiting for a call to say that my daughter has gone into labour. Anyone else got a baby due imminently?
Whilst typing this I just got a text from my foster son to say his 3 months pregnant wife has started bleeding. Oh no!

I have another GC on the way too.always a bit stressful when they go into labour!

I have only just managed to find this thread again to check on developements, and am so pleased for all of you whose waiting is over - congratulations to you all. smile
Still some way to go (another 10 weeks) for my own DiL, but so far so good.

gillybob Sat 12-May-18 17:24:35

It’s such a worry isn’t it glamma ? My DD was all prepared for theatre after her labour went on and on and getting nowhere. She suddenly felt the urge to push and thankfully a brilliant doctor helped her baby into the world .

I will be thinking about you and your family tonight , please let us know when you have your baby safely delivered. x

glammanana Sat 12-May-18 17:20:17

gillybob DS1 told me when he rang they had induced labour for the same reason and because she had ot registered enough movement during the last 24 hrs.
I will have the phone next to me for the foreseeable as they don't want anyone else at the hospital.

gillybob Sat 12-May-18 16:51:46

My DD (at 33) was classed as an older mum too glammanana . She was induced due to pre eclampsia but thankfully both fine now .

I hope your DiL’s Labour is as short as possible and she will be holding her precious baby soon . x

Anniebach Sat 12-May-18 16:39:31

I wish all goes well X

Jane10 Sat 12-May-18 15:51:06

Good news and good luck!

glammanana Sat 12-May-18 14:37:19

I'm bumping up this thread as DS1 has just rang to say DIL has just gone into the delivery room he says she is 4cms at moment but being her first it may take a while one never knows ?? so I am house bound waiting for news,the poor girl is absolutely huge and has had to stay downstars this past week I hope she has an easy time she is an older mum at 36 and is very scared poor thing.

gillybob Thu 03-May-18 15:46:50

Huge congratulations Glamma 9lb 6oz wow!

I need to buy 2nd size bits and bobs now as first size will be a squeeze I think

We're having the opposite problem in that our little Evie is swamped in her "New born" baby grows and I've had to buy a few bits in "Tiny baby" size.

Jalima1108 Thu 03-May-18 15:39:24

10 lb + seems a bit OTT!!! Yes, my poor DD.

Luckygirl Thu 03-May-18 11:58:47

Congrats to all - lovely news. 10 lb + seems a bit OTT!!! Glad mine were a bit smaller!

baubles Thu 03-May-18 11:47:20
