Delivery Room Day 2

So after a very frustrating day yesterday where Tina's waters broke late at night with lots of contractions, we spent some 13 hours in the delivery room and no baby came. So we were off and back home by 2 o'clock. However as Tina's waters are broken they will not leave the baby more than 24 hours and thus she was booked in to be induced at 8am today.

 

So we are back in the hospital today and Tina and baby are hooked up to a CTG scan. All is well and dilation has started, contractions are gaining in intensity again so fingers crossed we will finally meet Bubba today (5 days earlier than the due date).

 

Bubba's heart rate and foetal movements being monitored on the CTG scan.



 

Incidentally I have bought the CD of the current number 1 in the charts at the time when both the boys were born. For Bubba it looks like it will be the Lily Allen song, "somewhere only we know" from the John Lewis advert. I still don't think the advert was worth £7 million to produce, but the song is nice.
