How long now??

Hello. I’m currently 38+6. I had my 1st sweep last night & was 1.5cm but hadn’t felt any contractions etc.
The hospital arranged for me to come back at 6:30am this morning to be induced. I had the passerie put in at 7:30am & also had 2nd sweep at same time.
Monitor is showing that I’m having mild contractions but they aren’t close enough together/ strong enough.
Waters haven’t broke yet.

If anyone has any similar stories - when did your baby come? (This is my 1st, I’m so uncomfortable & fed up of waiting)

My waters have never broke on their own. I was 3cm roughly when they broke them the 1st time and 8/9cm when they broke the 2nd time. Ask if somebody is going to break yours? I started having mild contractions with my 1st on a Weds evening/Thurs got worse and my son was born on the Friday. I don't know if them breaking my waters sped it up or not though? Good luck xx

This is a bit strange.. but hear me out

I am 36 weeks and 4 days today.
I had that feeling, you know when you are trying to take a tampon out on your end of period and it kind of hurts because the tampon is dry? I had that sensation today?

Now I feel like I have to push something about my vagina? It kinda tickles but uncomfortable. I’m not having any pains at all anywhere btw so can’t be baby ??

Girl names

We have an Elsie and we nickname her “Elsa” like queen elsa from frozen

If we have a girl my husband would love a spin on “anna” without actually calling her Anna lol

What names are similar to Anna / could be a play on words?

I’ve said Aria but I don’t know any others
