29 weeks and I just want her here now

[BabyBean2018]

Hello

I'm 29 +2 weeks and I just want the time to hurry up now until she's here.... any tips on any distractions to while away the next 10 weeks?

Xx

I'm at 38+4 and feel like crying from boredom!

I was given 30th April as my first due date and then after my scan at 9 weeks they said I'm actually due on May 21st! So I stupidly convinced myself she would be here earlier than the second due date... Big mistake! As the reality is she may not arrive until June...

I have stuff to do to keep me busy but I'm so bored doing it all! I just want to meet my little girl

I used to think 'yeah whatever' when people said this to me when I was pregnant with DD, but I'm going to say it anyway. If this is your first child then enjoy the peace and quiet and the freedom to do what you want and don't wish it away. Enjoy the time with your OH, just the two of you. Believe me, you'll miss it when baby arrives!

Pretty insensitive post title OP.
I've had a full term baby and a premature baby and being big and uncomfortable is much better in a long run. Still dealing with DS's problems 3 years on.

As above poster said, don't wish the time away baby will he here soon enough. Enjoy being pregnant, the fuss you get from people, getting your dh to things for you when it gets too difficult, planning and buying things etc.

I'm overdue with my second and I'm almost sad it's going to be over soon, as much as I'm looking forward to meeting him!

I’m feeling the same but it’s from anxiety. I am really enjoying pregnancy and physically I’ve been really well, the problems have really started since the movement began. Now I’m so anxious when he has quiet days and times where he doesn’t move. I’m really trying to deal with the anxiety and not let it ruin what is otherwise a lovely time for me and my partner. It’s hard to wait, whatever the reasons I expect.

@KadabrasSpoon she is allowed to be fed up even if she's only at 29 weeks! If you don't have anything nice to say then don't bother...

She has only asked for advice of how to get through the next 10 weeks. She isn't wishing the baby would arrive today!

Hi lass, hope your well.

When I had my daughter in 2014 I had no anxiety about pregnancy and apart from the last month no issues- I was consultant led so due to reduced movements I was induced on 38+5 .

Same thing probably this time and I can't wait as I defo am experiencing anxiety and hating it.

Time will pass, I set my goal for Sunday when I know I'm a week closer to the end and seeing our wee man.

I totally get it though, the wait can be stressful!

Gosh, kadabra; people can't say anything on here without offending someone!! I'm 31 weeks and already a bit fed up but that doesn't mean by any stretch, that I want my baby to be born prematurely!

What RaeCJ82 said times a million!

As I said I understand the feeling but the thread title is poorly phrased.

@KadabrasSpoon no it isn't. You are overly sensitive.

She isn't suggesting she would like a premature baby. She's hypothetically hoping it was her time to have her baby here, already.

You don't want her hear now. She would be very poorly. Been there, done that!

Enjoy this time, rest a LOT. Spoil yourself and enjoy time with your DH. In a few months you'll be glad of making the most of your childfree time.

No I'm not. The thread title will cause people to click on it that have been in the situation though. Think about it.

Enjoy your pregnancy. Work, do your hobbies, go out with your friends etc.

To be honest, I agree with @KadabrasSpoon I clicked on the title because my baby was born at 28 weeks. I would have loved to have got to 29 weeks and beyond. I know that's not what the OP is getting at, but the title did make me think how I wished for the complete opposite.

Nap. Have tea. Nap more.
Go for a drive. Just you. Enjoy leaving the house without feeling you have to take all of it with you.
Go out for a meal and relax over dessert.

You'll miss these things but its all worth it.

The title can be interpreted in different ways but once you read the post it's clear what she means.

Please stop trying to use your own experiences as an excuse to moan at other people.

In all honesty, I interpreted the title as that also. But, it’s clear from the OP that it’s not insensitive.
