My husband was at work on wed til 11.30pm and tonight til 2am. He plays pool on a Thursday night so had pool last night at 7. He said we could go for a meal from 6-7. I looked forward to it all day at work, come in and he said he couldn't be bothered and we couldn't really afford it so we'd get...

Aw Beanie thats actually quite unfair. Labour is gonna be hard enough without no been able to have the kind of birth you'd really like. Unless there is a medical reason no one can be refused a home birth. Hope you stick to your guns and demand the type of birth you'd like. Do they have a...

Thanks. I'd never thoght of a gaving a home birth until I went to the ante natal classes (I always assumed you couldn't have one for your first baby). The midwife who led the class actually preferred home birth and tried to encourage everyone at the class (all first time mums) to consider it. My...

Hiya thanks. Checked with the midwife at the ante natal class I went to on wed and with my midwife at my ante natal appointment yest. You can be given pethadine but if you are they call an ambulance (which will be on stand by) and you have t go straight into hospital as it can make the baby...

Hi I'm 34 weeks pregnant, due in March (ignore the ticker its wrong!) and this is my first baby. I'm planning on having a home birth for many reasons. The only thing is your only allowed gas and air and I'm worried I will need more pain relief cos I've got a very low pain threshold. Has anyone...

Yeah its my first baby. Was hoping she was maybe gonna arrive sooner although don't fancy the pains of labour been any sooner! Its actually kinda uncomfy - I feel like I'm sittin on her head :rotfl:

Hi I'm nearly 34 weeks and just been to the midwife. She said baby is fully engaged and is really deep down in my pelvis. Does this mean I could have her earlier? Thanks :?

Hi i work in an accountants and checked with my friend in the wages department - we do the wages for over 1,000 firms. They have to give you time off for scans, midwife appointments and anything antenatal re relaxation classes etc. If they are funny they might ask you to produce a maternity...

Due 31 March. Got 20 week scan on 8th November and going to find out. xxx

Just had my 16 week midwife appointment and heard the babys heartbeat it was such a good feeling. It was really fast at least 150 beats per minute which she guessed was probably a girl. Will find out in 3 week if she's right! I feel so much happier now having heard it, it was an amazing...

Hi I'd love a text buddy if anyone fancies been mine. I'm due 31 March. Thanks Dani xxx :D

Are they really that good? I wasn't sure whether to get one or not as haven't really got any spare money at the mo, still trying to cathch up from paying for our wedding in June. I heard that it can be quite hard to find the baby's heartbeat and hear it? xxx
