Anyone else nrly due and can see no way out in sight?

[Cheekychops84]

due tomorrow and no signs at all. This is dc3 . I'm hot fat breathless been up all night can hardly move and feeling really depressed. Sweep booked for Tuesday. I can see no end in sight I wake up everyday plonk myself on the sofa and that's where I stay I'm sure I'm a bit depressed but needi g every muscle in my body to heave myself to my feet is really getting to me now.

Well, in the next 2 weeks you will have a scrummy newborn. Dah dah! It will all be over by the 11th :)

The 11th oh good I can live with that thought I thought they leave u for 2 weeks?

That would be 42 weeks. Say the 12th then :)

They do say that the darkest hour comes just before dawn, there is definitely a way out one way or the other and your baby will be with you really soon

Book an expensive haircut/beauty treatment. Sods law says labour will start before you can make it :)

In all serious tho, I'm only 31 weeks and feeling pretty massive and gross so I can imagine how uncomfortable you must be x

Ha ha yes feeling hooooooge jus went for a half hour walk over the fields but was creepy over there so we virtually ran back !

Definitely in the same boat - 39 weeks, been praying for baby to turn up every day since turned 37 weeks but genuinely just can't imagine it happening at all - I've had not one sign at all. No braxtons, nothing. SPD killing me, sitting on the sofa, miserable, in pain, all day too. Don't know what I'm going to do if actually get to 40 next week and still nothing. I know it happens and people go overdue all the time, but time is just going sooooooooo slowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwly... :(

Feeling the same, 39 weeks, barely no contractions, cervix dilated by 2cm since Wed, lost mucus plug yesterday but nothing else.... This heat is killing me too, can't sleep, breathless, praying for delivery soon, please please please. Have been drinking raspberry leave and sage infusion, had sex ! And nothing. Guess have to wait. Never thought I would be looking forward to delivery...
Good luck everyone.

I'm 34+4 days and this is how I feel.. I hope it happens quickly and soon for you. I still have 6+ weeks to wait. :(

Oh ladies it's grim isn't it ! I don't even know if I'm even dilated at all? My midwife may aswell b non existent ! Hoping I am going to have a cold bath now as abso sweating !

Still there Hun - try and go for a really long walk! Raspberry leaf tea? Pineapple? T

Hi Tamzo yes still here! I have bought a pineapple! Walked quite a bit today too getting some strong braxtons but nothing frequent I'd say one every 1-2 hours :(( come on baby !

I read If you have laboured quickly in the past to avoid raspberry leaf tea??

Hello Ladies - can I join your moan?

I am 38 wks today, due 10th Aug. Am so fed up, it's unbelievable. This is DC3 and I spend all day waddling round the house after DC 1 and 2, clutching my bottle of Gaviscon. Heavily pregnant + summer school holidays = bad plan.

DH mega stressed at work, trying to finish project before baby arrives and we usually meet in bed at midnight when he switches off his laptop and I'm up for my second of six pees of the night.

Have to wear muy sexy varicose vein support tights all day long and basically can't go outside, as would die of heat exhaustion.

I'm having a sweep on my due date in a fortnight - how did life get to the stage where I'm counting the days to a strange lady sticking her hand hand up my hoo-ha and wiggling it about???

Off to re-watch Glee and eat some Galaxy. x

Hello basil brush. Yes I am too thinking bad plan r.e school holidays! Thought oh how handy I will be on maternity leave so no childcare to sort an I can have loadsa fun with them boy was I wrong! We are all bored stiff kids nag nag nag to go to farms and swimming and beach and I'm too scared to stray too far now! To top it off we have the prospect if possibly moving in 6 weeks! Must b mad !

I'm 39 wks on Tuesday with DC2. I finish work on Monday and my Obstetrician gets back from holiday on Wednesday, so although am bloody uncomfortable due to the string bean (only 6.5lbs but 80th centile femur) having it's foot in my ribs, I also don't want to be early. I'm mentally aiming for next Friday (3rd).

Had a few "is this it?" moments over the last week, but think that might just be as the baby is fully engaged so lots of pressure.

Yep, me too. I am 30 weeks, massive, completely knackered (even though I don't do anything) and sweltering in 110 degrees heat.

Can I ask, is anybody else completely exhausted? I am not sure if this is normal.

Well I was up till 12 pm with quite strong braxton's then woke up this an with nothing! Baby seems to engage nd disengage a lot one minute my bump is low then is back up nrly round my neck ! I dnt think I can hold out anither week ! May have to do the castor oil thing haha

I really do have to pack my hospital bag as well. I've kind of randomly chucked some stuff in a bag, but I haven't properly gone through it to make sure I have everything.

Oooooh I packed mine a while ago wishful thinking I think ha ha

Can I join you ladies?
Due Monday (30th) and Mega fed up :( feel like I'm going to be preggers forever! Have been taking raspberry leaf tea since 34 weeks and it's had no effect what so ever!! Keep thinking things are kicking off as have been having lots of back ache and period pain n then it all stops.........

Me too cheeseandonioncrisps is this your first? I have a new complaint now I am itching like mad! It's driving me crazy !

Yes it's my first, what about you? My latest complaint is waking up with numb hands which then become very painful, lasted for about 3hours last night :( x

Sorry cheekychops just realised this is baby number 3 for you! Lack of sleep has turned my brain to mush.........

Cheese, it's my first too and painful hands have just kicked in the last couple of days too! Now having to divide my moaning between SPD and 'ow, my hands!' Poor DH!
