AAAAAARGGH! We convinced ourselves the baby would come a week early as he has been measuring a week larger throughout the whole pregnancy so I have been expecting him since the 29th of June!!

Just looking for sympathy really.....! And tips to get things moving!!

Ah I'm sick, 40+4 and feel like its a struggle to get through a day! Plus I now have sinusitis and my whole head and face hurts so much! Not sure I have the energy for labour.

OMG! No advice really, but first time pregnant now at 30 weeks and quite intrigued by all these....

I wish you all the best and hope happy, healthy babies come out soon

I second the acupuncture. I had some last Wednesday and labour kicked off the next day ( admittedly I had a curry in the evening for good measure). Maybe it was just a coincidence but could be worth a try.

Hi all Alistair arrived naturally at 11 days over (1day hefore the induction!). Meuconium in the waters so no midwife led unit but fairly quick birth in hospital - got diamorphine at 5cm and 40 mins later I had a baby!
