I'm 41 weeks pregnant tomorrow and feeling highly fed up and heavy and uncomfortable. Baby doesnt seem to be coming, I've had low preiod cramps for week, low backache for weeks, but no other signs. I need to get baby out before they induce me!

Awww congratulations @flissity Smile No news here. Had a bit of blood and cramping yesterday following a sweep on Friday but everything faded away over night. I'm upset as I thought things were finally happening. Really feel under pressure to go into labour before the induction on Tuesday Sad

Congratulations @flissity !!!
I’ve definitely heard before that third labours can be very different to the previous two. Excellent that you and baby are doing well now though. So jealous of the newborn squishiness Envy

@linerforlife oh fingers crossed for you! As hard as it is, try to chill and get your oxytocin flowing Cake

@linerforlife it’s so easy for me to say now... but it will happen. You won’t be pregnant forever! I never thought I’d go naturally. Was convinced it would be Tuesdays induction. So much so that we didn’t even sort the Moses basket at home (had to move some furniture around at 1am🙄😬) or repack the bag like we were going to. But that didn’t matter really.
So I would say make sure you have everything actually ready!

I 100% understand where you’re coming from though - it’s the worst thing. The pains don’t develop into anything and it really gets you down xx
