40 weeks today (but due to being pregnant immediately following a MC I've been pregnant 11 months bar a brief 2 week interlude) and massively fed up. It's strange because I definitely did not feel like this with DC1?!
Didn't feel like getting out of bed today (or all of last week...) just want to hibernate til the baby makes an appearance.
My DM and friends keep trying to get me to go out for coffee,lunch etc but the thought of being sociable fills me with dread 
The constant barrage of 'anything?' texts is driving me crazy and my DP is pissing me off just by breathing
.
I know I am being totally unreasonable, but please tell me I'm not the only one feeling like this! Don't get me wrong, I am not depressed and I love my DP and can't wait for our baby to come but I am soooooh over being pregnant!
Come and hold my hand, please!!

Ahh bless you!! Well it's the old saying, you can only have at very MOST 2 weeks left!! Within the next two weeks (and I say two weeks loosely because it could happen literally at any moment now!) you will have your beautiful longed for baby.
Leave Social Media alone for a few days and let people guess for fun, ignore your phone and do something nice for yourself.
Rest, sleep, massage, pedicure, anything you like. Enjoy these last few days hours!?! and try not to get stressed or upset.
It won't be long
A break from social media sounds an excellent idea, and will ignore texts as much as possible (though my DM means well, if I don't reply straight away she starts ringing continuously until I answer
). Your right though, I must remind myself that it csnt last forever, 2 more weeks max 
I was induced with DC1 and the actual labour and induction though long went really well, though I know not everyone has such a positive experience. If you are really uncomfortable though maybe getting it over with would be best? If I haven't gone into labour by Tues, I am being referred for another one and will welcome it to be honest! She's going to try a sweep then too, as when she tried this week although I was 50% effaced and cervix was soft, it was closed so she couldn't do it
I went in for induction on the Weds am, labour started properly early hours of Thurs and DD was born at 3.15 in the afternoon so it really wasn't too bad considering my cervix was not at all favourable!
Has your physio worked out your range of motion for your pelvis? that's what mine did last time and this time and has put this in my notes so as to avoid further damage in labour if opting for an epidural etc.
I know you hear a lot of horror stories about induction but I was happy with mine as was my sister and a friend who had one end of last year so they can be good. The important thing is that you do what is most comfortable for you, don't feel pressured into anything.
Big tip - don't let your OH start his paternity leave if you go in for induction-yo could be there days and he can only be there for visiting hours until in established labour so better for him to still go to work and you have a friend (or do what I did and enjoy the peace with a good book) til the time comes
Hi.
my wife is 39w 2d today and yes (she more, obviously) but we are both fed up now. constant txt and annoying Braxton Hicks all the damn time (that just refuse to turn into real ones lol) most annoying is our good mates (who had a baby at new years, by CS 3 weeks early) saying 'she will come when she is ready' just wanna say 'bog off! you bloody had a 3 week old by now and never got to this stage/feeling!
nice to know someone is feeling the same frustrations! sure it will be soon. hope everything goes well
I think what helped was my endless laps around the hospita! so would walk for as long as I could,read for a bit,walk some more, repeat! Bounced on a ball when reading too, anything to help!
Two weeks?! I've never known anything like that, poor thing I would say my experience is more the norm than your friends so try not to worry!!
All decided very quickly-went to day assessment the day before, they said come in tomorrow had to call at 8 am to make sure they had a bed, and then just headed in.
If its a first baby, some hospitals like to get you in early evening 7pm ish to start induction as they ten to be longer than subsequent inductions and gives them time to administer extra doses overnight so be prepared for that x
Bless you, I'm sorry to say it probably will feel like that, I feel like I've been pregnant forever! I just want my baby now lol!
I'm trying to enjoy my last few (I hope!) days peace before the baby comes (DC1 much older so a doddle to look after) but I'm such a moody cow, I'm getting on my own nerves lol!
Agreed to go round to my parents for dinner tonight to (hopefully) buy me a day or two without being badgered with do I m want to go shopping/for coffee/ for lunch etc. they mean well but I just want to be left alone! What a cow eh!
Yes she is at school, hair and waxing done already but goong to try and book a mani pedi and facial for next week to give myself a boost. Got sports day tomorrow so watching her will cheer me up, she's my best friend as well as my DD really .
How is your pregnancy so far? all going well I hope? xx
yes, I really know how you feel. I'm 39+4 today and already fed up with the incessant comments. I came very close to dishing out some serious sarcasm at church today, with almost everyone making remarks like 'you still here then?' etc. YES, I'M STILL HERE. NOBODY WANTS THIS TO BE OVER MORE THAN I DO RIGHT NOW.
I'm just reassuring myself with the knowledge that it can't be long now, and luxuriating in my free days while DS is at nursery and I'm able to rest!
Ahhhh I'm so glad (sorry!) that its not just me so flippin' miserable lol!
Nothing still, not even a twinge My Dsis annoyingly had both her DC on their due dates, feeling so jealous of that right now! Abut two weeks ago I thought I was in early labour-2 days of backache and period pains but it was merely wishful thinking obviously!
Glad you are feeling a bit better Laura! Exercising whlist you can sounds a great idea mani pedi and facial booked for tomorrow afternoon after the MW so that will be a nice treat after a membrane sweep haha!
Guiness,Mistress and Purple, keep up with the mantra of 'it can't be long now' and try not to kill anyone, though I know it's hard. EVERYTHING and, frankly everyone, is annoying me to high heaven at the moment ! Tried to make pancakes for my DD yesterday morning and actually cried because I couldn't find the right pan in tje cupboard
DP swiftly stepped in and said he would make them lol!
What has everyone got planned for today, anything nice?
Bless you I have been the same for a while, I have to try really hard not to lose my rag with people when they really haven't done anything wrong, it's just me!
I have my DD's sports day later so for a couple of hrs I won't actively be praying for labour to start, but will be right back on that at 4
Getting bots and bobs done in the AM and then resting in the PM is what I do most days and it works for me - go for it. That way we stand a chance of not being totally knackered before the baby even gets here lol! Plus when cocooned in bed with a boxset I can pretend to not be in when my well meaning but irritating parents 'pop round'
No news here. Had a very restless night spent dreaming about labour but no signs yet other than the odd period pain type ache every now and then.
I am also unable to go into any shop or public place without being asked when I'm due etc. Getting a little tired of that now...
Oh ladies was hopeful that something would happen for someone overnight!
Nothing here either, feel like I have a hangover today. Weirdly I've been peeing less the last couple of days so although awake a lot in the night I didn't have to keep getting up which was nice
Sweep today, desperate for it to do something! Did they book your induction yesterday Helen?
Guiness - it's so irritating isn't it! I'm so bad tempered at the moment I think it's better for everyone if I stay at home and hibernate until I go into labour lol!
