Hi all, I'm really starting to struggle now! I'll be 38 weeks this week and feel huge!
I'm definitely bigger this time around and struggle to get comfortable sitting down.
Yesterday afternoon I had shooting pains in my lady bits which lasted until I went to bed last night. I went to bed wondering whether this was the start of something, but nothing.
Anyone else feeling whale like? And, or, any tips for getting labour started?!

Oh yes - I forgot about the birthing ball. I bounced a lot when expecting my daughter but don't think I can face it this time.... Laziness is stopping me!
I feel a lot more impatient this time around! x
