I’m 31+3 with a little girl (due end of October but hopefully I don’t go overdue even though it’s my first as I already have too many November birthdays in the family!)

I’ve been fine mostly; pregnancy so far has been luckily smooth sailing (touch wood) though this weekend I seem to have turned into that stereotypical hormonal pregnant lady you see on telly 😅 my poor husband. How have you been coping?x

@riaviolet yeah I'm going to pack mine soon, I'm going for 9 months and I'm unsure if I will go back as with my 1st I went back when he was 3. So I don't know, what about you xx

@Sophwalms - I'm taking 39 weeks plus 4 weeks annual leave.. Never had so much time off before!

I'm 34 weeks tomorrow, due 9th October with a baby boy. Have a daughter who's 3 and a half and a complete handful now I'm unable to run around after her due to PGP.

I'm so excited to meet him but completely terrified of how on earth I'm going to cope with 2! DD whilst totally amazing, is on the go from the second she wakes to the minute she goes to bed.

Clarashan · 28/08/2018 01:47

Hi All, I'm 33 weeks today due on the 16th with a girl. I'm not going on Maternity until the end of Sept so will hopefully get 2/3 weeks to relax. I feel like i'm completely ignoring the fact I have to go through labour I'm really not thinking about it. Don't know if this is the best strategy but it does mean i'm not worrying about it!

Well I hope everyone's labour goes well! I get so nervous at times but then so excited at other times. Hormones are crazy and I'm abit of a wreck and look awful! Xx

Also 32 weeks with baby boy! My second - first is 5! Much bigger & much more uncomfortable with this one. Finding it hard and wondering how I’m going to manage working up to 37 weeks 😬

Sophwalms · 28/08/2018 17:50
