HI ALL MY MINTI MUM AND DAD FRIENDS. SHE IS FINALLY HERE.....

born at 1.43am ,weighing 8 pound 4 ounces.she is 55cm long and was beautiful and pink,

i am so glad its all over..the easiest part was the birth,6 pushes and shes here,no gas or drugs,no stitches just a graze and i feel great.Very tired and craving mcdonalds but other than that its wonderful.

I was due yesterday and i expected to be in ...no im not.

Got taken to hospital yesterday as my gp suspected bub was breech..i nearly died id never been hit with that sort of news.I just burst into tears and couldnt stop crying.I guess my idea of breech is getting a caesar,which i was not prepared for mentally.

The doctor did a scan in the hospital first luckily ,as i was being send to have the baby manually turnned..i was told that really can be uncomfortable.But luckily she turned again and i was saved that.

Now im booked in  to have the baby induced if she hasnt come by next thursday.Even thats scary as i have never been induced either.I guess i expected everything to come all natural and on time.I know you can nevr predict these things.My doctor says my real due dates today by her but the scans say 19th so im waiting.I tell ya though these braxton hicks are coming every hour to half hour and are strong ....So when they get unbearable ill be off.Just hope she stays the right way.

Updates later.....

The midwife reckons saturday,lets hope so.Not a happy camper ,im bored,upset,lifeless and sad.I want to walk to the end of the earth and back but couldnt be bothered.The kids are getting stir crazy now cant wait to move.Only 4 weeks till our lease runs out.Cant find any big homes but thats the story all over since the floods in newcastle.Ive bought a caramel bar and put it in my hospital bag ,i know that that lolly trolley doesnt come around enough when your hanging out for a chokkie.

Ive had dreams the baby is 8 pound 1 so decided to pack a couple of larger sized bonds suits,as ive only packed 4-5 0.My boyfriend is really getting anxious and the kids wonder why i havent gone in every night,they hope to wake and be minded by a neighbour as they would then know they are getting there baby sister soon cause i must be in the hospital.A story i once read said once your absolutley fed up with being pregnant thats when baby finally comes as its the best time of all.Cause theres no doubt something you wait so long for has to be worth while.Lets hope.

Ive actually got 11 days just to clear that up ok,thanks.But im very eager.Also missed my last antenatal thinking things were closer when hat wasnt the case anyway that will be good.

We are desparate to find a bigger house they are so hard to find.We pay very good rent here only $235 for a really nice place with lovely neighbours.Its all very hard,looking for rentals,having babies,kids on holidays boy its a busy life.

I lost more of my plug and this baby has become a heavy weight,i sometimes fall sideways in the shower.Only 8 days left ...seems like its been a month these last few days.Everybody in my family are ringing and asking "have you had the baby yet" how annoying it gets.Im ok though...just wait for each day to pass which will bring me so much closer to my due date yeah!!!!.

ive been getting back to all my minti friends as i have so many people on my list yet only get back to the members that send me pics or messages so im spending the next week catching up with them all.If i don't get back to you im sorry or i might be in the hospital.Are there any members on here from Newcastle.
