DS1 was 14 days late and DS2 9 days late, so I know this one is going to keep me waiting....... I was determind to ignore my due date, but now it is here I cant help hoping for an on time arrival!

Yep, Im due tomorrow too, and totally fed up! I dont know why I was so expecting this baby to be early Hoping I get woken by painful contractions in the night...

Due 7 July, so I'm totally with you....can't wait. Have litre tonic per day, had curry yesterday, bought a pineapple for today... Even asked DH for sex!
DD was 40+4 and DS was 41+1... so my odds don't look good to go in time for this DC.

Although I tried not to focus on the Due date this pregnancy, I failed completely! Totally fed up!

So nice to feel that I am not alone. Wierd day today as due date and DS2 gone into school for his first practice day! Trying to be excited but longing for the first contraction!!

Hello,

I was due yesterday and today I was booked in for a sweep on Friday and another for Monday if that doesnt work! It's all very exciting! Having another spring clean tomorrow incase it happens Friday night! Good luck!

Me - due tomorrow but in latent labour. Sad (Long latent labour last time...)

I was due 3 days ago - booked in for a sweep on Sunday, fingers crossed. Had so many bouts of false labour I'm going mad and totally fed up already! Hope I'm not in for TOO long a haul...

Still here. I spoke to the midwife on Thursday and they will not see me until next Thursday (when I will be 8 days over) and will offer a sweep then. This eems really late and haven't seen anyone since 38 weeks. Feeling very annoyed about it!!

I was due yesterday with my first. But thought would probably be late. Not feeling too fed up yet, but only started to feel really big and uncomfortable the last week or so.
Seeing the midwife Wednesday, but not sure she will be doing a sweep then. Is it something she can just do, or do I need to speak to her and arrange it before hand?

im due next Saturday, hate the thought that could technically have to wait nearly another 3w!!

girlfromdownsouth · 11/07/2011 10:55

I am due on Thurs 14th, but due to baby being breech am booked in for a c/s on Wed 13th. Very disappointed as was booked in for a home birth as per my other two.
I know if baby was right way round it would have come by now as DD was 10 days early and DS was 1 week early. He also breech but turned via ECV at 38wks and was born 48hrs later.

im due tommorrow had a sweep the other week and nada being induced next thurs if nothing happens so not long to go im still waiting for some baby bits to arrive anyway and id like them to be here before baby so i can take them to the hospital with me.

Had my first sweep yestersday and nothing, despite being 2cm dilated and 50% effaced - thought for sure it would work. Have another one at 41+1 but not feeling too positive it will happen now! Don't know why I ever thought I'd be early!

It's so hard playing the waiting game and trying not to get fed up with it all!
