Just as dd will look to me for a female companion, your boy will see you as the first woman he loved. I think he's lucky! And so are you :o

Besides, I still think you're having a boy. I felt the same way about Skrimpy and she's having a boy so who knows? Fingers crossed for you, but if it's a girl you'll be a great mum to her - just like you already are to your other three kids. :awe:

Thank you Myloves. This brought tears to my eyes. I love my little boy so much, and he already is a mama's boy.... I know we will always have that bond. I was just hoping to give him the brother he wants so much, and to be able to have that bond with another little gentleman in my life as well.

Mocha, thanks for updating! I have my fingers crossed that today is the day! COME ON SADIE!

My contractions are starting to get really intense (often I can't talk while having one), but they're still 10-15 minutes apart. I'm not supposed to call my midwife until they're 5 minutes apart for an hour. I'm hoping things speed up soon!

Wow 5 mins apart for an hour! I would have thought that was quite a while to wait, both of mine were pretty much born by that point! How long were your previous labours? x

My twins were induced at 37w5d and after 27 hours I was only at 8cm so they gave me a c-section.

With ds3 (a VBAC) I had my first contraction at 1am and they were quick and painful right from the start. I went to the hospital at 5am, and he was born at 10:30am.

Me too Mocha - the more kiddos I had, the quicker I went from early labor to having a baby. AAA freaking out!

Go in when you feel ready mocha, things might pick up all of a sudden being a 3rd pregnancy, best of luck xxx

Thanks, ladies. The contractions are still pretty irregular (anywhere from 5-15 minutes apart) so I don't think I'm there yet. I managed to bring ds3 to preschool today amidst it all, and just came back from a walk around the neighborhood. I may give my midwife a call in a couple of hours if nothing has changed to at least give her a heads-up that she may be attending a birth today.

Thinking of you Mocha <3 <3 <3 Good birthing vibes coming your way :D
