Due in mid September...

[LucyLou19]

How are we all feeling? I’m so ready for this baby to arrive now! Due date is 21st,I’ve started on raspberry leaf tea,ordered a gym ball and really hoping I go couple of weeks early 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Feeling the same @lovemylot1 nodded off on the sofa today song my 6 and 2 managed to not destroy the front room whilst I napped, or each other!

Really bad nights sleep last night, ended up on the bottom bunk with the 2 year old. He's such a fidget bum but was crying every 45 mins so I thought it would be easier 🤔😕

Can you get raspberry leaf tea st Tesco?

The piles are much better today, I think I overdid it on Tuesday as I did 15,000 steps over the course of the day. Decided I’m not doing anything for the rest of the pregnancy, going to drive everywhere!

My children seem to get more clingy every day, probably to do with the baby plus new school year / pre school starting next week so lots of new stuff going on

wonderstar I got mine from tesco, the clipper one.

Anyone else get a wonky bump? Baby always seems to be ina weird position which makes my bump.a really odd shape!

I got raspberry leaf tea from Holland and Barrett xx

Hey everyone due on tue, was at docs tue past and was 1cm dilated he gave me a sweep, have had really sore back and cramps since, rang the local midwife to make app for second sweep next week and she wouldn’t book my in saying I wasn’t in labour and they don’t offer sweeps until 41 weeks😡 clearly says in my notes repeat sweep😢 ended up crying and walking out! So fed up now and ready not to be pregnant tho def not ready for a new born baby which is making me feel like a horrible person!

Also she wouldn’t examine me or even touch me, only went off the fact “that I haven’t had a baby” is reason how she knew I wasn’t in early labour! 😡 had an ecv 2 weeks ago hence the early sweep so baby doesn’t turn back 😓

@olive my bump does be very lopsided at times. Baby pushes out on my right side sometimes.

@beat ive met some midwives that are right bitches. Sorry she was mean to you. Could you call your doctor and complain that she refused to do it?

If its any consolation i had 2 sweeps with my last baby and she was still a week late so they don't always work. I know its hard at the end but just think in 2 weeks time, at the most, you'll have your beautiful baby.

My god what a woman! Can you get another appt with the dr or a diff midwife?

Thanks girls waiting on the registrar who done last sweep to ring me back! Just can’t get my head around what she was sayin and thought it was just me being hormonal and over sensitive but heard the hubby telling my sister about it this morning and she was wanting to go in and complain 😂 made me feel a bit better x didn’t have this with my dd 5 hours start to finish labour, this time it’s just been goin in for days x

What a load of bollocks I got a sweep a few days before my due date the last pregnancy I had

@beatbox01 did you manage to get hold of anyone?

All I've wanted to do is relax this afternoon and all my kids have wanted was to fight, argue, every noisy play imaginable and then to top it off 2'yr old chucked his dinner on the floor. 😴😴

Hey no I rand again in the afternoon and he was on an emergency m so going to ring again on Monday! Still having pains and period like cramps but hasn’t got any worse! Just really trying to relax today and tomorrow x my friend wrote me out a letter of complaint so handing that in on Monday x I’m sure ur exhausted with a 2 year old aswel x

Hope your ok beat.

I've been getting very achy legs lately, to add to everything else.

How's everyone else?

Hey had another sweep today and reflexology after and just some mild cramping x nothing else x due date today so I’m now officially over due 😂 is it restless legs or sore? Bananas help restless legs for me x

37+4 today had sex this morning which lead to absolutely nothing!!! Finish work Thursday can’t bloody wait!

Achy down one side that's worse when I lay down. I think she must be in a funny position and pressing on a nerve or something.

I eat a banana a day!

Did you hand your letter in?

Lucy shame that didn't work - hope you had fun anyway! 😁
Pineapple and dark chocolate next? I have written off a curry as I don't fancy having a runny poo in labour, not fair on the midwives (I have a sensitive tummy)

As it’s the only proven thing to work I think he’s defo not ready to be born yet!! Having nails and feet done and lashes Friday so anytime after that is fine 😂😂

Oh a pampering session! Lovely!

Can’t wait!! It’s really needed xx

Yes handed it in yesterday, doubt it will do any good x I’ve all my pampering done, might need a whole redo by the time I bloody go into labour at this rate 🙄
Maybe try the ball for half hour @halfeaten see if that shifts baba off nerve x

Went back to work yday (teacher) thankfully no kids in for 2 days and I'm just covering classes for the next 2 weeks but I was asleep by 5pm! Kids back tomorrow though so must sleep!
Is it too early to be doing the deed in the hope they come out? I always thought was an overdue thing? Correct me if I'm wrong!

@wonderstar im thinking it’s if it baby is ready they’ll come xx

Due on Saturday, have had period-like pains, contractions and back pain for two weeks now, all leading to nothing - luckily I am otherwise pain-free and mobile so can go for long walks etc. but this is getting old... Somehow no one warned me about the never-ending pre-labour.
