My pregnant (and a week overdue) daughter just rang.....

[B00]

And I was like "yipeeeeeeee" we're off, my grandson's coming!" Only for her to ask..."did you ring me? I've a missed call".....

My hearts still going 10 to the dozen- for nowt, the cow.

:-(

[Dris]

O jings I thought you had news there so can imagine what youre like !!!

Is she getting induced?

[B00]

She's going to hospital on Monday morning, to have a hormone drip put in??? No idea what that is to be honest, but it should speed things up?

We can hope anyway!

[cazzz1975]

good luck to her, hope he arrives speedily and safely x

[Dris]

Think thats her being induced B00 thankfully for her in this weather-must be a nightmare.

Oooo good news shortly !!!

[B00]

Oooooo ooooo update!

She's just rang again, her midwife's just phoned her (thats who her missed call was from), they took some blood samples from her on Thursday, and apparently her bile acid is high (???), so they've told her to go in tomorrow morning to check her out, and said they may induce her then, as no point her going back in monday.

Oh BOO! know the feeling, my grandson was 10 days late, I was so stressed! my daughter was eventually induced, and was then in labour for about 68 hours! I was beside myself!..........He was born a healthy, lovely little boy, and my daughter, though really worn out, was fine too..............hope all goes well.........good luck!.........

[Dris]

Woot woo -she'll be fine !!
Better for her and your grandson !!

[B00]

Im sat here all shaky, nervous, excited and panicky. How daft am I? LOL

Ive tried to google "pregnancy, bile acid", but got a bit bamboozled :-(

[welshlibranr]

Not sure what having high bile acid means really BOO, but good that she's going to get it checked tomorrow, they'll probably induce her, rather than send her home again, hopefully anyway, sure they'll be fine................try to chill if you can..............I know it's very difficult!

[ladybird49]

So by tomorrow night you may be a grandma .... awww xx

[cazzz1975]

if its high she could be induced much sooner

I'm just reading up on it now Cazzz, aparently one of the biggest clues is itching all over, which in her case wasnt picked up as she's also got eczemia (sp?) and we all assumed she was scratching herself to death because of that.

[smudge]

Thinking of you & your daughter BOO. I'm sure all will go well tomorrow.

I know he's not here yet, but do they have a name for him when he is?

[Mamyalynne]

Ooh how exciting, I have to wait till January for my grandchild number four!! Keep us informed.

[DEN53]

Wishing your daughter well for tomorrow, B00. xx

[Jemisa]

Can I say congratulations now B00 as I'll probably be in bed when it all happens, try to stay calm, deep breaths - - - Go on have a fag.....
And remember B00, God couldn't be everywhere so he made Grandma's. ♥

how surprised am I that a B00 family member has lots of bile... well I hope it all goes well. Will you be Grandma, Gran or Nan?
