Very stupid questions re when-am-I-going-to-pop?

OK, indulge me, please.

I am 35 weeks and have had a meltdown about nothing being ready, at all. DH thinks that I have ages as my offical due date is 40+10 (this being France).

Is there any way to predict, roughly, when the baby might come out, given the following:
DD born at 40+5 (with no prior warning at all, 12 hours from first contraction to birth)

This pregnancy I:
Have been having BH since quite early with severe cramping from 33 wks (calmed down a lot now, mw said I did too much over Christmas and NY and these were contractions)
Have been noticing small amounts of mucous since about 30 wks
Have started to leak a little bit from my boobs
Nesting has kicked in big time
Feel like I've been kicked in the fanjo, but I suspect this may be first niggles of SPD (not sure, didn't get this in first pregnancy)
I feel as pregnant now as I did at about 37/38 wks pregnant first time (the heaviness, pressing down, etc)

Any chance this baby might arrive earlier than DD or is it just too impossible to predict?

I feel your pain as also waiting for dd2. I questioned my consultant on this and he says that there is no real pattern (Assuming you are healthy as you have ) as baby can be early or late. That said some
Of those signs do sound like you are nearing the end so here is hoping.

Thanks Gigondas.

I haven't reached the 'get this thing out of me NOW' stage yet, although I think when I hit the 37wk cut off I will.

I am only waking up four times a night and sleeping relatively well in between, so I think it's not that imminent. The only thing that worries me is that DD was relatively quick (from nothing to hard and fast contractions straight away) and I HAVE NOTHING READY!!

How far along are you?
