[HayleyWayley]

Hi ladies, im new here and im 37 weeks pg with my third child, basically i have had enough now, i keep getting the braxton hicks but no baby!
My bump has dropped so much and head is 3/5 engaged, im hoping its gonna be early coz im just so fed up now, its like a waiting game!
I dont want it right near xmas, i want it out the way! hehe!
Got a bad cold at the mo so feel like poo, but i have started taking raspberry leaf tablets, so im hoping this helps!
Anyone else in same postion as me?
Thanks xx

Hi hayley waley, I am due on 21st, I no exactly how you feel, as this is my first pregnancy I am convinced braxtonhicks are the real thing!!! Its so annoying!!! Do the raspberry leaf tablets really work?? Thinking of you x

Hi, hayley
I'm due on the 16th with no.2. Not feeling quite so fed up as you, bump's still high so pressure not on. Do come and join all of us december mums (although five of us have produced sprogs already!) in the antenatal thread, plenty of people fed up there too!

well im not sure if the tabs work yet as i never took them with my other 2, but i hear they really helped some ladies!
Time will tell!

I had a look at the dec thread and theres so many people expecting, i felt rather lost there, didnt know where to start!

Hiya

I'm also on the December thread and just wanted to say don't feel put off and don't feel you have to read the whole thing to join in! I don't post that much but it's nice read and to know others are going through the same feelings etc as you are.

I'm due on the 14th and bab is also 3/5 engaged, still feels like it's bum is stuck under my ribs though! This is also my third although a 13 year gap means I'm so out of touch it may as well be my first. I'm also hoping it will be early - not too early but I really don't want to go overdue.

Not much point in worrying though - babies come when they're good and ready most of the time!

Hiya Hayley and Baconbaps, I am due on the 15th Dec!

I feel exactly the same as you Hayley, although I am not suffering with a cold, poor you!

It really does feel like a waiting game, doesn't it. And everybody keeps saying "any time now"-well it doesn't feel like it!

fingers crossed our babies will be here for xmas!

Keep in touch? xx

Hi all
I am due on 16 December with my first baby. We are moving house this weekend so I am praying that he/she doesn't decide to turn up early!
I am also on the raspberry leaf tea but have yet to do the perineal massage - can't face it - does it really do anything do we think??
Am veering between elation and excitement and nervousness at the moment... Am looking forward to getting a Christmas tree and feeling all cosy and Christmassy in time for baby's arrival, however...Just bought our first digital camera to record all those 'first moments'...

thanks girls for making me feel so welcome!

u are all so nice and its nice to know im not the only one going through it hahaha!

i guess i dont have to read the whole thread, its just everyone knows each other by now and i dont wnna feel outta place, iykwim!

will have a read on the dec thread though! thanks! xx

HI i am due the 16th but hoping i come early, my daughters play is on the 15th...

I start having very painful braxton hicks everynight last about half an hour to hour then nothing, baby very low, walk around alot during that time. Been taking rasberry tea foe two weeks.

Good luck to all xxxxx
