Especially when people tell you the baby/babies will come when it/they are ready. You just want it to happen NOW!!

No, waiting for my own babies was worse, all the discomfort, I just wanted them OUT, and then no sleep, never again!!!!

I was really worried about my hermann eggs which were laid on 15th April and one has started to pip today so I have been waiting forever it seems....Maybe yours will be out soon but stay positive. I can speak from experience now as these are the first eggs my tort has laid!! Fingers crossed for you.
