How many friends are pregnant?
Hi
On one hand I feel very fortunate that many of my friends/family are pregnant. however on the other they have started to labour and I dont like what ive heard. One friend waters broke with no contractions so they arranged to induce. 3 days later she still hadnt been, as there were no free beds in the delivery suite. Another friend has very recently given birth (she got a bed) and literally 1hr 20 mins after giving birth they were asking if she was well enough to go home as they had labouring woman waiting in the waiting room!! At first I thought being pregnant with so many other people was really great..now im starting to change my mind! Anyone else pregnant with lots of other friends etc? xxxx

One had her baby yesterday, nearly delivered in the bath on the maternity ward because she dilated really quickly and the mw didn't believe her husband when he was saying she wanted to push!! She was whipped out, rushed down to delivery suite still sopping wet, covered in towels.... 20 minutes later her baby girl was born
But that might be just a quick delivery and not a staff issue, not sure ?

P.S. Going from your stories I might make her agree to no chats about labour if one of us goes into labour first!!!
