to not want to go to a BBQ at 40+8

[Splatt34]

just that really. Text from DH's friend just now re BBQ this afternoon. Am 40+8, rather fed up and just want baby out. Not dead keen to be making polite conversation about it with his mates, or worse my waters breaking there or some such. But DH has called me a grouch & says he'll go with DD anyway whether I go or not.

Yeah, mummy, many congratulations and . Please come back op, with your birth story. Had all my babies, so have to live all the excitement of others .

Ooh, the op, could well be giving birth right now. So excited.

OP is now +9 & it seems I will be pregnant forever despite trawling around car boot this morning & helping DH erect new fence this afternoon.

Congratulation mummytokatie !!

You need to drive around looking for speed bumps. That should bring it on.

Best of luck - I'm very jealous!

Yep Splatt
You've missed your slot, so will have to wait till next year now.

Tell me...
Have you considered ; sex, curry, raspberry tea, going for a long walk?

Speed bumps did actually start it off for me last time!

Get on a swing. I was showing no signs of imminent labour, went for a walk, had a swing, had a twinge, had a baby four hours later

Swing

A rocking chair got me going.....

If you have a birthing or exercise ball, sit on it and thrust downwards.

I tried morris dancing at 40+9. It had sod all effect but at 14mo ds was seen dancing in the bath with two white flannels...

Good luck! Hope its not too long now.

It was was being sent to the wrong seat at the panto that got me going first time- I was with my Brownie Pack at the time! I hadn't wanted to be left alone and convinced DH not to go to work, but my warm up symptoms died away so I thought I may as well go along that evening.

As Neil Morrisey was playing Wishy Washy, I'm reminded everytime Bob The Builder is on. DS is 2 and the memory is stirred very frequently!

Congratulations on the VBAC!
