Im 39 +5 today and had a few twinges here and there but nothing major as yet. I have woken today and just dont quite feel myself, a bit like I'm just floating about. do you think this is my body starting to get ready for labour? I don't feel ill at all x

Sorry I can't be any help but I'm 39+1 and that's how I feel today! In no way do I feel unwell but just not quite 'with it'!

Couple with this is random breathlessness and even more excessive weeing!

So sorry I can't help at all but just wanted to share that you're not along with the feeling and also fingers crossed for both of us that its a good sign!

40+2 here and hoping he stays put till Monday 1st September for school! I just feel so off today, things don't feel as they normally do and I have a feeling he will be making his appearance very very soon!! I keep getting shooting pains in my cervix and bum aha.. Not sure what this is. His movements are starting to hurt now and I'm getting the odd belly pain... Before this I've had no signs. STAY INSIDE UNTIL MONDAY pleaaaassseeee

I'm 37+6 and worried as my last fundal height seems to have shrunk (today), but MN suggest this could mean baby is hunkering down. I've felt a lot of pressure down below, aches on my back and bottom of my bump and seem to have more noticeable colostrum production.

REALLY hoping baby is heading down because if scan tomorrow shows baby has stopped growing or fluid is low (other possible reasons for fh measurement) I have induction/c-section hovering over me due to pre existing medical condition!

Just some positivity to your comment, I was measuring ahead up until 34 weeks and then when the baby went from breech to head down I have been measuring 2 weeks behind, in fact on my 39 week appointment I was measuring at 36 weeks... MW said it is because of the way he is lying :) so try and keep positive... I know my little boy is big his bum is the size of half my stomach haha Grin good luck x
