8 weeks to go!!... Ready but not ready :/

[Dede124]

8 weeks left, I finish work in 3 weeks (can't wait) really struggling to get around with heaviness and exhaustion however, there is so much I need to do! I haven't had my nesting urge yet I'm hoping that comes soon and the nursery is nearly complete but still feel like I'm no where near ready! But I'm definitely ready to feel normal again and have my body back! I know it's just going to drag but at the same time I need the time to get ready and my anxiety is getting worse week by week... Anyone else at the same point??

I'm 38 + 4 with baby number one, so I most certainly have been here for a while! Just desperate for him not to come early as he's due 1st September, which would be great for the school year! I have found that once you hit 30 weeks it does fly by - just make sure you keep yourself occupied when you go on mat leave or you'll go stir crazy! X

8 weeks is loads of time to do everything- you'll be fine! X

I'm 34 weeks and finished work a week ago (using annual leave) to spend time with my 4 year old. I've arranged loads of activities to do - he's loving it but I'm shattered!! I've had the nesting urge but no energy to do anything and the house is still an unorganised mess. My DS starts school 2 weeks today and I can't wait for a bit of peace during the day to get things done!

Hi! I've got 9 weeks to go for baby no 3 and very much looking forward to a last holiday on Saturday (had to get a fit to fly letter). I'm absolutely exhausted, my nursery is not ready and I've got baby paraphernalia everywhere and can't be bothered to do anything about it. Let's hope my nesting instinct kicks in soon. All I want to do is put my swollen feet up and sleep! Is it your first Dede114?

Ahh good to know I'm not alone ladies and yes it's my first @Guardup. 8 weeks sounds like a long time but I'm sure it's going to fly by 😱 I don't know how much more my poor body can take with poor sleep 😴 X

37+5 here. We are so not ready! And it's our second so we have no excuse!!

6 weeks left to go and I'm pretty unorganised.
