ITS MY DUE DATE!! anyone else due soon?

[faitheloise]

Its my due date today!!, second baby, having a boy.. been in alot of pain recently, saw midwife yesterday she said she couldnt feel much of his head as he was mostly engaged so thats good, been having alot of pubic bone pain and clicking, dont know what that means. Been having alot of pressure down there too mostly at night, feels like he is bulging down. I had a scan to measure him last week and he was estimated at 8lb 3oz so i hope he comes soon before he gets much bigger 🙈 my Daughter who is now just over 2, was 6 days late.

I'm 37+2 with my first getting really scared now! Hardly sleeping and groin is aching so much (not sure what that means?)
Hope your boy comes soon, although I have heard bigger babies are meant to be easier if that's any comfort. I was over 10lb born and was my mums second of 4, she always says I was the easiest. I keep trying to think this as my midwife says I'll have a bigger baby.
Have you got a name ready?

Oh gosh 10lb !? 🙈.. thats strange isnt it you would of thought smaller is easier? But my midwife did say the same thing to me about bigger babies being easier i thought she was just saying that tbh haha.. iv been really scared lately worrying about labour i think it’s because i know whats coming now 🙄 even though my last labour was 8hours from start to finish, water birth, no pain relief, and no problems except a tear.. your groin acheing is probably just your ligaments stretching and things getting ready for the arrival! 😊.. do you know the sex of baby??.. we have narrowed it down to 2 names, Layton & Leo. We are going to wait and see what he suits when hes here 😘x

Im due a week on friday, fed up

Sick of being tired, fat and the waiting.

Awhh i know 😞 not long left! Is this your first?.. im due to be induced next Friday if he dosent come on his own so i could have 11 days left as yet 😟

10lb 9 to be exact 🙈 I think it's to do with the pressure, I was dead quick apparently like I just wanted to be out 😂
I'm hoping for a water birth. Are you going for the same again? I hope I can cope with the pain, the thought of it is getting scarier each day 🙃
Yeah I think it's nice to see what name they suit, oh thinks I'm mad when I say that!
No I don't know what I'm having, everyone keeps telling me boy with their superstitions. I've got Charlie or Jack for a boy but really struggling for girls name x

Oh your poor mum 🙈.. yeah i would like another water birth but going to try be upright and walk around if possible ect before i get in the pool this time so my labour is

hopefully quicker! 🙈.. course you will cope with the pain, we have too!!😬 haha you can always have an epidural if you find it too painful.. no thats true! I had Skyla-Jai for my little girl and when she come out she didnt look like a skyla at all and took us a week to finally decide to call her Layla-Jai! Which she suits 😘.. i really like the name Jack ☺️

Haha I know, think it's fear of the unknown tbh. I really hope I don't feel the need for an epidural! Would you recommend getting in the pool towards the end then?
I hope I have the option of a water birth, my hospital only has 2 so just depends if it's available.
Layla Jai is a lovely name.
Choosing names is hard... especially when you discuss with others and they tell you how much they hate a name for whatever reason 🙃

Im sure you wont, i tryed a few puffs of gas n air but made me feel light headed and sick and i dont like that feeling so i went without, the pool is a pain relief in itself anyway, soothes your back pain if nothing else.. i didnt even want a pool birth last time i got to the hospital and was in pain and the midwife ran the pool for me even though i told her not too, then i thought f it i might aswel get in then and i just couldnt get out again 🙈.. you just cant be very active in the pool so id rather try be active to dialate quicker then get in the pool towards the end. But it all depends how quick i dialate as last time i went into labour at 1am, got to hospital at 3am and was already 6 and a half cm dialated! Then had Layla at 8am.. i hope you get the chance to go in the pool!! 😊.. aww thankyou 😘.. yeahh i know it is hard i just make sure my partner and my mum like the names i choose and they are the only opinions that matter to me dont worry about what other people say its 100% your choice x

Is baby here yet? @faitheloise xx

Nayynayy iv only just seen this. Its so strange you asked if he was here yet on 05.02.18 at 05:23am and he was born on 05.02.18 at 03.06am!! 🙈 how was your labour!?xxx
