I’m sure there’s loads of threads like this!
I’m due March 12th with my first - a little girl.
I have 10+2 days left and I am beyond bored! I have gone through clothes so many times and arranged them, I have washed all the pushchair and Moses basket and cot stuff. I have the majority of stuff we need only need a few minor bits (bathing stuff, extra bedding etc) but waiting on money for that!
I have had the easiest pregnancy only really suffering with back ache and hip pain every so often (touch wood it doesn’t change) and it still doesn’t feel real that I am having a baby but I’m impatient and bored now!
Anyone else feeling the same?!

I’m very late to this chat but hello ladies, I’m currently 41 weeks with my 2nd. Yes, 41 weeks 😩 I was due last Friday and there’s still no sign of me going into labour. I gave birth at 36 weeks with my daughter so didn’t even think I was make it to 40 weeks 😂

BeHereNowx32 · 24/03/2019 02:02

@Kelseymumof2 have you had a sweep? Must be so hard/ uncomfy still being pregnant! I had baby day before her due date. Watched a funny programme and DH gave me a nice back rub. Don’t know if that helped 😅 xx

Kelseymumof2 · 24/03/2019 08:49

Yes I had a sweep a few days ago which felt awful, I never had to have one with my first obviously so didn’t know what to expect.

BeHereNowx32 · 24/03/2019 09:43

@Kelseymumof2 getting a sweep was a huge worry of mine. I was worried about the pain, and wondered if it would even work!
I ended up going into labour before that..
I didn’t have any signs that it was about to happen really, until my waters broke- so, hopefully it happens any day for you 🤞 will you be induced if it doesn’t soon? Xx

Kelseymumof2 · 24/03/2019 10:40

Yeah they said they’ll induce me on the 1st April if I still haven’t gone into labour by then.

BeHereNowx32 · 24/03/2019 10:49

@Kelseymumof2 that’s still a while away then ☹️ Take it easy if you can, but I know you have another child- so prob hard to do x

Kelseymumof2 · 24/03/2019 14:13

I don’t mind it, my 2 year old daughter keeps my entertained when my fiancé is away (when she’s in a good mood at least) 😂

HidCat · 24/03/2019 17:44

@Firsttimetobe2019 congratulations! She's stunning!

@Kelseymumof2 sorry little one is staying out but at least you know you'll be meeting her soon.

Kelseymumof2 · 26/03/2019 14:41

I don’t necessarily believe old wives tales but for a bit of fun I’ve been having people guess baby’s gender based of the shape of my bump because supposedly you can tell from the way someone’s carrying 🤷‍♀️ Anyone want to take some guesses?

BeHereNowx32 · 26/03/2019 17:08

@Kelseymumof2 how far on are you now?? Your bump is so much higher than mine, and I had a girl... are you having a boy?

Everyone thought I would go early (including midwife), as I was so low- but she came one day early! Xx

Kelseymumof2 · 26/03/2019 18:12

@BeHereNowx32 I’m 41 weeks + 4 days today 😩 yeah my bump is still very high which I’m guessing means baby doesn’t want to be born yet and I’ll be induced 😂 I don’t know what I’m having, we kept the gender a surprise.

BeHereNowx32 · 26/03/2019 19:42

@Kelseymumof2 I’ve read that second babies can engage later on, even right before birth. Good luck!

Nice surprise waiting to find out 😊 xx

Kelseymumof2 · 26/03/2019 20:01

Yes it’s really exciting!

BeHereNowx32 · 27/03/2019 04:28

@Kelseymumof2 you will be meeting them soon, anyway! 😊

Kelseymumof2 · 27/03/2019 10:34

Baby’s been kicking me right in the ribs for the last 20 minutes 😂

minniecat2406 · 27/03/2019 10:37

Hi ladies, FTM and baby due yesterday...and I'm still pregnant! So fed up ☹️

BeHereNowx32 · 27/03/2019 10:41

@minniecat2406 it is hard at the end. I spent the last 2 weeks constantly looking for labour signs (midwife though baby would be early because I was getting Braxton Hicks and baby very low down). Baby cane day before my due date. And looking back I wish I just chilled out more! Hope you can take time to relax. Baby will be here soon 😊 x

minniecat2406 · 27/03/2019 10:45

Thanks @BeHereNowx32 I wish he'd get a move on! I have a sweep booked for Friday and another for Wednesday if that doesn't work. Unfortunately I have a feeling he's settled in for a while yet x

Kelseymumof2 · 28/03/2019 07:09

I started having contractions late last night so if things progress, I should be in the hospital delivering later today! I was convinced I will have to be induced but now it seems I won’t ❤️

BeHereNowx32 · 28/03/2019 07:58

@Kelseymumof2 great news. Good luck and hope all goes quickly xx

Kelseymumof2 · 29/03/2019 07:17

Our gorgeous girl Mira was born at 11:43 pm last night weighing 9 pounds exactly! It was a long pregnancy and a long labour but she’s finally here and we couldn’t be happier ❤️

Due in March and so bored.
