Ok so I have been learning to drive a while now and today I was told my test date, its on the 27th in about 3 weeks.
I feel ok at the moment but know I will be bricking it come nearer the date plus I will be almost 30 weeks by then.

Any of you lovely ladies got any tips for me seeing as I will not only be crapping myself but also sporting an even bigger bump by then.
The only thing I can think of is loo trip before I start tho the test time is when LO has a very active patch

Rinnyx - I was about 25 weeks or so when I did my test and passed.

I had no problems whatsoever with needing loo or baby moving, that was the last thing on my mind .

We're all different. Just try and forget for an hour that you're pg.

Bach rescue remedy and bananas sorted me out. And sitting test first thing in the morning helped too - rush hour in london meant that I got it out of the way early and spent most of the test in traffic therefore giving me less distance to balls up on.

One word of warning about the rescue remedy. If you use the spray, its soaked in alcohol. Absolutely teeny tiny minuscule amounts but because its such a fine spray, it makes you smell of booze which isn't going to impress the examiner so probably best sticking to the pastilles or using mints.

Good luck!!

Don't worry at all! I took my test at 37 weeks and passed......I went in thinking it's unlikely they could fail me as it's hardly like you'll be driving like a boy racer with a baby in the car. It was fine. I was worried I'd have to do an emergency stop, but they didn't, and the examiner apologized for making may do reverse manoeuvres as he said he knew it would be harder for me. You'll be fine!

I took (and failed Sad) my test at 27 weeks and at 32 weeks. Taking it again at 38/39 weeks... GULP!
