I just wish the little bugger would hurry up so I could get to the airconditioned hospital.

Good luck with the labour.It must be so hard with the heat.Keep cool.Put some wet towels on you to help.All the best.:fingerscrossed:

Go back to the pool! I was at Leichhardt Aquatic Centre when I went into labour. The Gorilla was born 4 weeks ago yesterday. :) And he's been stuck to my booby night and day pretty much ever since: damn this hot weather! (First Born, in a fit of jealousy, has attached herself to any bit of my anatomy she can hold on to - usually a leg. I think I was actually cooler when I was still pregnant!)

Good luck with the labour. :)

Thank god I'm not the only one. My wife thinks that 18 in doors is quite acceptable. It bleedin' isn't. So glad I put central heating in, use it a fair bit in a Victorian "Summer" when it gets so cold at night.

Just to cheer you up, it will be 6 degrees tonight. :)

I need it a bit cooler, I've just booked flights to the UK.

Southerly has just hit. I think a record run of hot days for Sydney. Now to cool the house down as everything is warm to touch. Normally these temps happen for a day and a southerly comes in to AC the city. Here is for a good nights sleep.

I'm very thankful for the lowering temps but hope the rain stays away until after the CNY parade.

Thank goodness- cooler today and had some rain. Some plants may survive - but the rabbits have eaten the gerberas and gazanias that I put in and lovingly watered - dang.

Hope the labour went smoothly and you now have a lovely bub.
