39 weeks and feeling very emotional

[allotmentgirl82]

Hi all
I've managed to get to 39 weeks after two previous prem deliveries. I seem to be very emotional and tearful at the moment. Not sleeping well and getting up every hour for the toilet probably isn't helping though.
I keep having contractions but then they stop. I had my show 2 weeks ago, have been trickling fluid/discharge/waters etc for about a week and have constant lower backache.
I feel like i could burst into tears at any moment :(

Not long now but have u spoken to midwife? Don't like the sound of your trickling fluid. Are you able to get enough rest?

I am 38 weeks tomorrow but having an elective c section so know the end is in sight? I am also waking every hour but luckily my hubby is letting me sleep in plus the 2 kids will be in nursery until I recover from the c. I have Ben taking paracetamol too just to get rid of little niggles and it is helping.

I hope u feel a bit better soon!

I completely sympathise, almost 38 weeks and feeling ridiculously wrung-out and over emotional, likewise not getting much sleep either, from pain in hips and constantly needing the loo.

Have a CS planned for 40+0 so know there's an end in sight, but still cherishing a hope that I'll go into labour before then so I get chance to try.

Agree with have you spoken to MW over trickling fluid...

38 weeks here totally fed up! Didn't sleep all
Night as was worrying over stupid things ! Well not stupid jusbthe prospect of moving house when baby is here ! And that this house will cost more to run! Feel sicknconstantlly I am so done with this pregnancy I've got no energy im worried constantly (think I've got anxiety) love your name btw allotmentgirl we have one too but think it's all been washes away ! : D

Yes I was worrying too - not sure about what. Developing a cough so am worried it'll develop into chest infection and thus postponement of c which is due on thursday! I also seem to contract for the first half of then night and then it settles down the second half. Dd also had a bad cough and took her to drs the other day.gp said the ears were dull but he couldn't see infection - butoday she is complaining of sore ears!!!! Just given her cal pol but she is grumpy as hell!
