Thank you so much to everyone for the lovely messages !

Yes, I'm being induced on Friday so only 4 more days to go eeeeekkkkk!!!
Had my last ante natal appointment today and after having a chat with the obstetrician I decided to go for the membrane sweep. She said that if it works it can make the whole induction process a lot smoother so I thought it was worth giving it a go ! It was Ok, a bit painful, but OK. After doing it she said that my cervix was "favourable" in the sense that its started to tilt forwards and its getting short so who knows.... Things might start to happen before Friday !

I'm feeling fine..... But will of course keep you updated !

Also, thanks to everyone on here who's answered my endless questions - you've all provided a tremendous amount of support which has really been invaluable !

Pleased all was ok with the sweep, I would have gone for it in your position (albeit not very nice for you) - lets hope it contributes to a smooth delivery 🙂 Very exciting Cleo...get some rest if you can!! Very best wishes 🙂🙂

Thanks so much Hanmillmum, Steff & Tabbicles. I'm happy with the decision, I think it was the right thing to do .....now it's just a waiting game. Will be lovely to have him in my arms on Mother's Day !!! (Regardless of whether its at home or the hospital)

I ended up borrowing a TENS machine from a friend - my husband and I had a look at it lAst night to figure it all out. Husband decided to "test it on himself" - (bless him) he placed the sticky pads on his leg .... And proceeded to test it on full blast - one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life !!! A grown man shriek ! 🙂 I told him you think that's bad - I have to squeeze a fully formed human being out of my body !!! 🙂
