im in labour!?!?

Just got back from hospital. I went to birthing suites this morning because i was really crook and had a splitting headache. After a trace on bub and a rest they said i was fine to go home, they then did a internal "to check your not in labout before we send you!" - turns out im 2cm dilated and 1cm thick (if anyone can enlighten me on this it would be great)... Anyway they let me home so that i could rest, but since i am booked for a c-section they said if i have any change to come straight back - but for now i am going to rest...

Very excited now - its the home stretch!

:smiliedance: yay:D

can i ask why you were booked for a c section, is there any problems with having a v/b

[tanni_83]

wahoo.....could be any time now :smiliedance:

when they say your cervix is x thick..... your cevix thin out when you are in labour, thats what they mean by the "thickness" you've got a while to go yet...i think its about 8cm is when you can push....but since you arnt doing that then it could be any time :yelclap: :thumbsup:

i have svt with my heart, and they arent sure how i would cope with the pushing... but we will see how we go...
