4th pregnancy

[Tryingtoholdittogether]

Hi all. This is my 5th pregnancy but 4th to full term.

Any one else? I can honestly say this is the hardest one so far but probably because I'm looking after a 5 year old a 4 year old and an almost 2 year old too!

I am 33 weeks pregnant. But midwife says 32 +3. But I'm going by my dates as I was right with all the others! !!

Baby is head down although with the amount of cervical and lightning pain the last week I would say started to engage. Horrendous Braxton hicks. I Sonia and now diarrheah!

Wandering if I will make it to full term....

All other 3 were 7 hour labours with 20 minutes pushing so expecting the same!

Ds1 was born in due date.
Ds2 born 12 days early
Dd1 3 days early.

Dd2 due 29th April but I had it calculated as 22nd April.

How's everyone else doing?

Fourth pregnancy here, and not the easiest. Currently 31+4 weeks due date 05/05. I have a 4 year old, 3 year old and 19 month old as well. Been a rubbish few weeks as they have had chicken pox between the three of them in the last 4 weeks, I had an admission for pre eclampsia, (thankfully turned out not to be), gestational diabetes diagnosis and to top it off I now have an awful sore throat and uti. All my labours were very quick, however the last one was an induction and all born before due date. Frankly I cannot wait to have this little one, as have had enough of doctors appointments and midwives.

Ooo nature that sounds tough!

Hang in there! We escaped chicken pox. I was bricking it as I was babysitting my nieces and nephews for a week and it was going round my son's friends and none of them had had it! Potentially could have been 6 kids with it but we escaped!!

I'm sure you will be early then. Ds2 started to be induced as my contractions stopped after my waters but started up alone.

You are doing well xx
