I'm 39+6 with DS2 and ready for this pregnancy to be over
Anyone in the same boat?

Me! 39+1 today and feeling really tired, squashed and grumpy. Keep getting cramps at nighttime and thinking this is it.... but nothing so far!

Fedoos · 15/07/2019 02:24

And me! 40+3 with DD2 and SO ready. Had a few cramps on and off but nothing more than that. Already booked in for induction on 24th. It can't come to that. Can it??! DD1 was born at 39+4 so I was convinced this one would be here by now.

unicornsprinklesss · 15/07/2019 14:03

Keep me updated! DS1 was born at exactly 39 weeks so I'm hoping this one will be out soon. Happy due date to me!!! But no sign of baby :( Just feeling as tired and massive as ever, yay.

@Feedos my sister went into natural labour a day before her induction was booked - there is hope!

Baby is still in here today! I had my daughter at 39+4 so I am hoping history repeats itself. Fingers crossed for you both!

unicornsprinklesss · 15/07/2019 20:44

You're not going to believe this - my waters have just broken! No contractions or anything yet. Called my midwife who has told me to stay at home resting until proper contractions start which could be 12-24 hours.

Hellosunshine30 · 15/07/2019 20:48

Ohhhh how exciting. Keep us updated. Hopefully your don't wait too long

I've had BH all night. Constantly. I feel so bloody uncomfortable. 38 plus 1 here x

Fedoos · 16/07/2019 08:41

@unicornsprinklesss How exciting (and not jealous at all!)! Good luck, hope all goes well.

40+4 here and still nothing 😭

Ilovemypyjamas · 16/07/2019 09:01

@unicornsprinklesss hope all is going well! Nothing to report here either...

unicornsprinklesss · 16/07/2019 09:10

Thank you everyone! And keeping my fingers crossed for you all. Still absolutely no contractions

OP posts:

unicornsprinklesss · 16/07/2019 12:40

Update: now getting mild tightenings like ramped up braxton hicks. Nothing too unbearable but hopefully means DS2 might be here by tomorrow!

OP posts:

Ilovemypyjamas · 16/07/2019 14:12

That is exciting! Good luck!!

unicornsprinklesss · 16/07/2019 19:00

In hospital, 4cm dilated with 1 minute contractions every 4 ish minutes. Hurry up baby!!! I'll keep you posted.

OP posts:

Ilovemypyjamas · 16/07/2019 19:05

Ooh see you soon baby!! Super news OP x

Hellosunshine30 · 16/07/2019 20:10

Oooh keep us posted. Good luck

EAIOU · 16/07/2019 20:19

Good luck OP! I'm having a cup of tea here and you're having a baby 😂🥰

Fedoos · 16/07/2019 23:01

Eek, you'll be meeting your baby very soon, OP!

There were a couple of hours earlier this evening where I was getting some pains and I thought things might be starting off here, but they seem to have eased off again now. Booooo.

Mrsmummy90 · 17/07/2019 00:07

Good luck!! 😊

unicornsprinklesss · 17/07/2019 09:20

Hi all! My little bundle Isaac was born at exactly 5:40am this morning after a long and painful labour, (no epidural as it made me pass out last time haha) weighing 8lb3oz. Baby and me are doing good! DS1 is coming to meet his little brother in a bit.
Hope you're all ok x

OP posts:

Mrsmummy90 · 17/07/2019 10:40

Congratulations!! 😊

Hellosunshine30 · 17/07/2019 10:41

Aw this is great news @unicornsprinklesssehat a lovely name. So chuffed for you. Congrats x

Fedoos · 17/07/2019 10:48

Aw, congratulations! Bet your DS1 is excited!

Shahlalala · 17/07/2019 10:57

I’m a bit behind at 36 weeks but wanted to pop in to say congratulations unicorn!

Braxton hicks and nanny down pains here, but I fear I will probably just have them for 5 weeks.

Shahlalala · 17/07/2019 10:58

*jabby down pains

Ilovemypyjamas · 17/07/2019 11:57

Lovely news! Congratulations OP! I've been having lots of movement, so hoping something might happen soon - probably wishful thinking though
