Anyone feel like they'll just never go into labour?

Im only 39+5 so not even due yet - due Friday. But I feel so depressed! I had it in my head that this baby would arrive early.

Dc1 was 11 days late. DC2 was five days early. I've had it in my head I was going to be super early with this one - I had a stomach bug around 37 weeks - which is stupid, I know.

Just feel like I'm never going to go into labour. I need to get my head sorted out! I've had all sorts of signs for weeks now - cramps etc and no longer take any notice of them. It genuinely feels like it's not going to happen

Midwife has had to remind me, as I sat in tears at 40+4 yesterday, that full term is considered 38-42 weeks. 😩

Hey user hope you're ok. If today is I-day, I hope it's swift and painless for you. A sneeze induction. Good luck - just keep thinking of the newborn snuggles

41 weeks today. Meh.

Hey ladies hang in there. My dd was born last Sunday 41+6 3 × pessaries then eventual natural labour.

Congratulations Troodie

Hiya, little update Friday was in fact labour day! Went to the hospital at 10am had the pessary in at 11, started having pains at 4pm, asked the midwife to check me at 6pm to see if I was progressing... I was at 4cm so took out the pessary, almost instantly the contractions started coming thick and fast every 1-2 minutes, was taken over to labour ward at 6:45pm and she was born at 7:30pm.... everything happened soooo fast! We didn't even see it coming haha. Hope everyone else is doing well!

Thanks RedCrab

Congrats user that's nice work!
