I am 38+5 today. And I am so bloody FED UP of being pregnant now!

Can't sleep during the night, so end up sleeping during the day which then perpetuates the no sleeping at night; have 2 two year olds to look after as well which is REALLY difficult (thankfully in nursery 3 days a week); constantly up and down for a wee; standing up makes me nauseous and/or faint so can't really go anywhere or do anything.....

ARGH! I haven't any problems really, just getting to point now where I really really really want my baby, he's kicking me a lot to let me know he is there but this is making me nauseous as well :(

Oh well, I'll just go and chop some more pineapple and drink my raspberry leaf tea - OH should be home soon, I don't think he's ever felt so lucky! Grin Hoping I don't go too much further - was induced at 36 weeks with the boys so have no idea what to expect!

I have been feeling like it's going to happen soon too.
Though am probably wrong..

Starting to get lots of irritating people & their irritating are you STILL pregnant questions..

We don't know what we re having but with three girls already people do not stop telling us how much we want a boy

Don't know if it's a boy or a girl but it's going to be a William Idris or a Charlotte Emily.

Lovely names. We have William as one of our boys names too.

Hey all. Our absolutely beautiful daughter Erin was born yesterday all 7lb 6oz full head of dark hair and just perfect. Thanks all for keeping me sane. BTW, doing the deed, a long walk and a curry really did start it off that night. Brilliant!

well done never - congratulations.

Erin is beautiful name.

girlsyearapart · 30/11/2011 22:09

Congrats never - you were right about it being a girl!
Enjoy her

Hello all! Just wanted to shout to the world that our gorgeous little bundle arrived on Tuesday after a (somewhat intense) 61 hour labour! Little scamp had turned back to back, but I think 8lb 1oz of baby Edward is worth a little discomfort Grin

Thanks for all the tips etc during my rants - you kept me far more sane than normal I otherwise would have been.

Congrats never! Fingers crossed the rest of you ladies get your babies soon!

nickelbabe · 01/12/2011 19:10

61 hours! Shock
no wonderyou needed 2 days to get over it! Shock

and Brew and Wine and Biscuit s
Grin

lovely name - not too bad a size, either?

I'm overdue and fed up of everyone asking me "when is it due" when I am out and then being surprised that I'm out/in their shop/whatever when I tell them!

I love the names above - we want to use Erin as a middle name if its a girl but can't decide between Charlotte or Beatrice if its a girl. If its a boy we've happy with names!

I keep thinking "ooh this might be it" and it isn't. Had a show which I thought would lead to something but nothing yet and that was 2 days ago!

muppetthecow · 02/12/2011 16:17

Thanks nickel - trust me there's been plenty of Brew and Biscuit! He's really long and lean so he's a great weight. Plus, he's got massive feet Grin

Love Beatrice and Charlotte both using - not surpised you can't choose! Hope he/she doesn't keep you waiting too much longer :)

nickelbabe · 02/12/2011 16:27

i love both of those names too.
