    Morning gents. So, to update. We came in on Thursday morning at 8am. My wife started having contractions at 7pm on Thursday night which were getting stronger until 11pm last night although the cervix wasn’t dilating any further. My wife was in so much pain that they decided to bring our baby...

    It does Astute. Only been 13 and 1/2 hrs so far. Pleased to say that contractions have started in the last 90 mins. About 2 mins apart, lasting 50 seconds on average. At least things are kicking off! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    We’re in the hospital now mate with midwives checking in every so often. Not sure we’d get away with it [emoji51] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Waters haven’t broke yet. No real signs of movements. My money’s going on an arrival tomorrow at this rate! Feel like sw88 with the updates. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    To update...we were called at 6.30am this morning to come in so we’re finally here. First checks all good. Midwife said that the worst case scenario is three days. I repeat, THREE DAYS! Saying that, first internal examination and all is in good position so hoping it’ll be much less than 3 days...

    No real update I’m afraid. We weren’t called into hospital yesterday and were told to call back today. Called at lunchtime and were told there was still a backlog of ladies waiting to be induced (who knew this is a popular time for newborns on the outskirts of Pompey...) and if we didn’t hear...

    Yeah, credit where it's due. There's obviously been a massive balls up but at least someone is trying to 'make it right'.

    Visitors from Texas for Cov City v Peterborough

    I've got a mate who moved to Texas last year from down this way on the South Coast. I've noticed that he's started using 'y'all' on posts to his new American acquaintances. Makes me wanna e-punch him.

    Thanks mate. I do look at some of my mates and think ‘I’ve got no worries if they can do it’! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Already tried that mate. Nothing! Tried the walk as well to be fair and that didn't work but gets us out of the house for a little while!

    Thanks Astute. The only good thing about the hospital delaying bringing us in is that it gives my wife more time to have the baby naturally which she really wants to do as she's worried about being induced. Once I finish work today (although I'm working from home again), we'll go out for a...

    The walking dead starts again tonight

    I don't think he'll die on the bridge. Judging by the 'coming next week' preview, the bridge looked like it was almost complete and I don't think they'd write him out in the 2nd episode of 16. I was surpised Maggie went through with that punishment last night (no giving names away in case...

    Yeah, we're not like that at all thankfully. I've got a mate who is and thought he'd deck his kids out in designer clobber but thankfully he hasn't. We've got other friends who've had kids recently and they've given us baby clothes as we're not all precious about having stuff that might have...
