Another day of waiying and so the worry starts to set in! We made another visit to the hospital and Helen spent 45 minutes attached to a monitor - the ambiguity is the issue here. In medicine there are no definites, so everything becomes a shade of grey. Which in turn dilutes all the reassurance medical staff offer. We head back again tomorrow morning to see what's what.

It looks as if we'll only have a week to waiit either way as they plan to induce by the 12th day overdue. 5 down and 7 to go as the old adage a watched kettle never boils seems increasingly apt.
