Baby mummy is waiting hurry up.

Good luck and hope he comes soon.

clairefromsteps · 01/01/2011 20:44

I feel for you. I used to lie on the sofa like a gigantic beached whale and shout 'GET OUT! GET OUT! GET OUT!' at my twins.

lexxity · 01/01/2011 20:45

I really feel for you. Went 40+12 and spent a good amount of time begging him to get out.

Baby GET OUT!

skyswept · 01/01/2011 20:46

next week when you are getting no sleep, you'll wish you could push bubby back in,

put your feet up and get some sleep (whilst you can HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!)

DanceInTheDark · 01/01/2011 20:46

mumatron · 01/01/2011 20:47

FairyTaleOfNewYork · 01/01/2011 20:57

skyswept · 01/01/2011 21:02

4 kids? hats off to you lady, I hope the LO doesn't keep you waiting too long! BUBBY, SHIFT IT!

mumatron · 01/01/2011 21:04

nope, he can't stay there forever, it will just feel like he's staying there forever.

i'm booked in for induction of laboour next thurs so am trying to convince myself that is my actual due date.

LadyBubbaAndBump · 01/01/2011 21:07

I'll tell yours to get out if you reciprocate. I'm not yet over, but definitely doing a good beached whale impression and previous two have been whoppers and came out on or before their due date, so could do with this one being early to avoid the poundage!! Xmas Grin

GET OUT BABYFAIRYTALE !

FairyTaleOfNewYork · 01/01/2011 21:08

all babies that are keeping mummies waiting get out

I feel your pain, i am 40+10 today and so tired of waiting. Had my first child at 37 weeks so have felt overdue for 4 weeks now. Think my baby takes after his father as he is late for everything which is unlike me! Hope your baby arrives soon x

strawberrycake · 01/01/2011 21:45

I went to 40+14, when they suggested induction I told them I didn't give a shit how they got him out as long as they did!

jessiealbright · 01/01/2011 21:48

You poor things. Tell them you're going to start charging rent! (Idea unashamedly stolen from a friend who went past her due date.)

and there is no milk here for me to have a cuppa
