Childbirth

Feeling under pressure!

I'm heavily pregnant with DC2 and although my due date is 25th June I feel under immense pressure to somehow magically produce this child now!!

Various family members including Mother, MIL, etc have taken to calling most days saying "anything happening yet" NO!

My Dad is soon going on 2 weeks holiday and said "hurry up and have baby before I go" I WOULD IF I COULD!

Just made the mistake of telling DH the 'tightenings' have been every 10 mins for the last hour and some low down pain as well as backache but not to get carried away and he's talking about "putting everyone on standby". Just hold your horses!

I want to meet our baby as much as anyone, tired, huge and uncomfortable but I wish they would realise I can do sod all about it!

I know exactly how you feel! I am due on the 23rd and you'd think I was already overdue the way everyone's going on.

I haven't had any twinges or anything, never felt a single Braxton Hicks through my pregnancy either so I feel like this pregnancy will just go on forever.

Our babies will be here soon, just tell everyone to be patient Smile

Thanks Kurololi I just needed a moan really!
I'm very grateful for this pregnancy and can't wait to meet our baby, just wish everyone would accept she will arrive when she feels like it and nothing I do will change that!
Good luck with your little one too Flowers
