Well here I am. Number 2 child was due to be born yesterday but is still in it's nice warm safe haven inside Mummy. Quite a bizarre mindset to be in waiting like this.

Anyone else counting time for the messy event to happen?

I have a 3 1/2 year old girl and I work 20 miles away so it could be fun when we start to rock and roll. Have to get a mercy mission from the inlaws but they live 60 miles away!

JQ Jnr No2 is due on Thursday, however, my wife is currently upstairs timing her contractions on her Ipod App. Looks like I could be in for a long night, JQ Jnr No1 took 72hrs to arrive.

Good luck with Cobra Jnr.

3 nights being kept awake by Mrs Puggit with contractions before no2 arrived. After it all, I was the one who said I couldn't do that again!

I find it funny how the people of PH refer to their OHs as Mrs [username] and children as [username] Jnr hehe

Play some online shootem up, that's what I did when my lady went into labour, for 8 hours. Almost left it too late to get to the hospital.

mrs_pmanson is due with our first on Friday!

Had a scare at 34+5 weeks but we think that was just a protest at him being poked and prodded. Amy had more contractions on Saturday night and we thought this is it but no! Contractions stopped and he's gone back to pressing on a nerve!

You sorted that quickly. I remember the post you put up of your missus on your wedding day and PH went wild at it, cant have been 9 months ago, was it?
