Ring Mum and Dad

At 14:30 on 31st March, I decided that I should ring Mum and Dad and let them know what is going on. Mother answers and seems quite excited. My brother is in the background, I can hear the git laughing at me!
I tell them what has happened and what is going on and pass on the information about what Ward and what visting times are, that way they can keep Jo company while I am at the cinema with Matt.

What are they doing?

At 13:20, or there abouts (I was not really looking at my flipping watch), they put some gel on Jo to induce the baby. Not sure I wanted to watch that really!!
We've been told that Jo now has to stay in until bump appears, better hurry up as I wanna go and see the 300 at the cinema with Matt.
I'm off to the car now to put some more money in the meter. This is gonna be expensive, and they won't feed me! They should put a McDonalds in the hospital. Might go and get my motorbike, parking is free for that. But I need to make sure the top box is on too, carry the baby back in of course ;)

Well the bump the Jo has been carrying around for the last 9 months has not wanted to leave the warmth of it's mother's womb. SO, the hospital said that we will have to go up and it induced (sounds painful!!).
Now for those wondering why I am calling it, 'IT'. Is because we do not yet know the sex of the bump, "better be a boy as we have so many boys toys for it to play with it", say's Matt (brother).
Today (Saturday) the hospital rang to say that we should pop up to the hospital at 11:45am. "Oh God!", so car packed up and I was about to leave and I remembered that I need to take Jo too.
