Anyone else over analysing every twinge and symptom???

DH helpfully convinced I will go over again like last time but I bloody hope not

Not had a show or anything yet, but getting shooting pains in my lower pelvis. Baby still active and rolling about with arms and legs pressing against my ribs and lower back

Been going to the toilet at very random times of the day and night

Bag packed and repacked 10 times!

Come on baby boy we are ready for you!!!

I was but found sign spotting was driving me mad so trying not to now. In my experience they often come to nothing & end in disappointment. I'm now 40+5 & still no baby.

I'm just cracking on really and trying to have as much planned for me and DD as possible

It's mainly the size of me, not really being too mobile and the sheer amount of time I spend weeing that's getting to me!

I went to 40+6 last time so I feel your pain!

My whole pregnancy has flown by but since finishing work and being at home it has definitely slowed down and I am missing adult company already.

I'm lucky that it's been a much easier pregnancy than last time - I was just ill and run down, and put an awful amount of weight on. This time I have felt well and am nowhere near as round and whale-like this time

Hope your little one makes an appearance soon

39+5 today. So ready to be done but I am at the point of not knowing what is and isn't a sign anymore.

Had lots of mucus loss even a bit of blood stained 2 weeks ago but still nothing happening. Lots of extremely uncomfortable BH mostly through the night but again been having these for weeks

Bump feels so sore to the touch it is that stretched now that it can bring tears to my eyes just touching it!

Baby headbutting me in the cervix causing some pretty eyewatering pelvic pain over last few days. Hope this is doing something to dilate my cervix

Midwife appt on Wed where she wants to do a sweep but I'm not sure

39+5 here today too and absolutely no sign that anything is going to kick off. I had some contractions over the weekend but they only lasted an hour or so. I was induced at 41+5 with DC1 and am very confident that DC2 is going to be late too!

I am booked in for an ELCS next week if nothing happens before then so at least I have an end date (although it feels like years away).

Kittysparks1 · 14/08/2017 11:26

I'm only 37+5 sat here wondering if my waters went or I weed myself!

Good luck everyone!

RatRolyPoly · 14/08/2017 11:44

39+4 and absolutely nothing that constitutes a symptom here :( ELCS booked for Thursday (40+0) so I'm running out of time to find out what a contraction feels like!

Lana1234 · 14/08/2017 12:27

39 today exactly! Lots of twinges in lower pelvis. May as well just live on the toilet I'm peeing that much 🙈 unfortunately feeling run down and absolutely no energy. No show or anything like that yet. Don't think he is vacating the premises this week anyway.

forfucksakejanet · 14/08/2017 17:52

Sorry but also glad we're all in the same boat!

I actually feel like I smell of wee I do so much of it!

Shattered today, not even had the energy to transfer clothes from washing machine to tumble drier. Poor DD, she has a v v tired mummy!

Yep - my DS has watched far too much TV today (not that he's complaining). I had so much energy yesterday and today I just feel really flat, both physically and emotionally. The waiting game is hard work!

It's nice hearing from others in the same boat (even though I'm sorry that you are all suffering).

lilyborderterrier · 14/08/2017 18:11

Yes I'm having a planned c section on Thursday 24th ! So 10 days and counting!
Im consultant led as the baby is small, oblique and I've got a massive fibroid inside me, so my lovely consultant is performing the op. I'll be 39+1 so nearly full term. My daughter was 40+2 and no early symptoms went into labour after a sweep the daughter before.
I've been having lots of uncomfortable braxton hicks and feel rubbish so maybe this one will be early. I'm on countdown though and cannot wait !

It's been an ok pregnancy but these last few weeks I can barely go anywhere as it wipes me out. I'm driving the smallest of distances into town to get to the park bless my 4.6 year old, she's being ace although neglected.

Good luck lovelies xx hang in there

forfucksakejanet · 14/08/2017 20:58

Just did half an hour on my ball and have lots of bubbling low down, very odd sensation Confused

I've opted for vbac this time and will be induced at 40+12 ...... really hoping for everyone's sake I don't get that far

Been offered a sweep at 41 weeks but I never got to that stage last time so hoping this is the same this time

Glad we're in this together ladies!
