39+6 with my second. My first gave us a big surprise by turning up at 35+5. I thought this one would be early too, although very happy to have made it to term. I've been losing chunks of plug for weeks, he's not engaged and I just feel like things could continue like this indefinitely. I think he's just going to stay there until forcibly removed :( They wouldn't induce until 29th December. I had a growth scan about a month ago and they predicted he'd be 9lbs at 40 weeks, so I imagine 10lbs at 42? I just want to drink loads of Christmas drinks and to be able to move around normally again :( I'm going to end up uncomfortable all Christmas then induction and trying to force an elephant child out.

I had a really hot chicken Madras for dinner. Maybe it helped?
We're both fine and should be able to go home later :)

@oysterbabe might need to try that. I think my baby is too comfy in there!! Ah that's brilliant!

Congratulations!! Sounds like this baby kept you waiting for so long to prepare for it's speedy entrance!
I'm now really hope you've passed on some good luck as I've just had a show. I know it doesn't necessarily mean anything but it's hard not to read into it...

Have you chosen what your first Christmas drink is going to be? Grin

I can't decide whether to have gin or champagne for my first drink. I'm so excited. I just feel so overwhelmed with happiness at not being pregnant anymore.

I'm sure if you Google there's a gin and champagne cocktail out there somewhere.
I've also decided you're a good luck charm, still trying not to get excited but seem to be getting contraction type pains every 10 minutes...

I can't wait for a baileys!

Oysterbabe · 21/12/2017 21:25

I went with mulled wine.
