mummyofprawn I hope all goes well at the delivery unit. I'm sure it won't be pre-eclampsia if all your checks have been negative. Hopefully it's the start of things for you :)
Hopefully pp is offline because she's having her baby. Yippee! (and 
)
millie I feel your pain - I know how it feels to lose your mw appointments this late on and even if you know that in many ways it doesn't matter (as for me) it's still frustrating and anxiety-inducing. Thanks supersunny, I went to a clinic yesterday - they rang over the weekend to say I could come in if I hadn't had the baby. When I got there nobody had passed the message on so they were a bit narked but the mw saw me anyway. She seemed to be of the opinion that sweeps were completely pointless and just told me to have a lot of sex. Baby still only 1/5 engaged and has changed position but is still awkwardly positioned. More bouncing and more eating for me too, I'm afraid!
Feeling much more positive now I'm not melting all over the place. Mad thunder storms here today - for about two hours there was thunder, and then a couple of flashes of lightning, without any rain! Then it threw it down.
Also just gave myself an intensive pedicure - soaked feet, exfoliated, moisturised, rubbed with pumice stone, rubbed with buffing stick thingy, smoothed with foot file, soaked again, exfoliated and moisturised again. Then cut, filed and painted toes. It took a hell of a long time as bending is pretty damn painful, but I figured all the leaning forward and squishing of baby might force her down :) And now I have nice purple toenails :)
