Due date next Wednesday. Sweep
On Monday did nothing. I’m so fed up!!!! Hubby has banned me from driving. Mom shows up every day to help me walk my son to nursery because she’s scared I’m going to pop on my way! House is spotless. Washing all done. Shopping all done. Hospital bags ready. I am trying to embrace the end of what will be my last pregnancy but aghhhh!!!! I’m fed up!!!! Anyone else feeling like this? Just about to order a spicy curry with pineapple- wish me luck!!!!

39+1 for me today, few twinges last night after bedroom dance and a bit of plug this morning I think... going to start a vigorous routine of sex, curries and comedy on Netflix 😂 got another sweep on Monday 🤞keep picturing baby and imagining breastfeeding etc etc to help my oxytocin too 💕

How's everyone doing? How are you feeling about labour?

@Tootyfrooty35 oooo hopefully this are on the move! Hopefully you won't make it to your sweep!
I had a sweep yesterday, we did the need twice and Iv lost more plug today and had period cramps all day yesterday and some today with lots of BH. Got another sweep tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed for everyone 🤞🏻.
This thread has literally kept me going the last week!!

Congratulations everyone xxx

Thank you!!

I hope it's not too much longer for the rest of you lovely ladies! Xx

LuckyKitty13 · 23/03/2019 18:16

I think maybe perhaps contractions have started... eek trying not to get too excited. They've been irregular for about 3 hours - not very painful as such, but more than just 'tightenings' - like intense period cramps - do you ladies think that sounds like labour?! No show yet...

CaseofEllen · 23/03/2019 18:37

@LuckyKitty13 sounds like it could be something! I've had back twinges, period pain and lightening crotch for about a week now though. Got to 2cm dilated and had bloody show but nothings progressed Sad hope it does for you!

Tootyfrooty35 · 23/03/2019 19:04

@luckykitty13 fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞

Nothing much going on here, trying to keep busy so I don't symptom spot too much 😣

Spoke to mil earlier and had to bite my tongue when she asked if there were any signs at all... ''Erm, yeah so I'm losing bits of my mucus plug and me and your son are having sex every day but otherwise my cervix is being rather boring'' 😂😂😂

Curry for dinner 🤞🙌

LuckyKitty13 · 23/03/2019 19:22

I'm conscious it could go on for days! They are sharper/more intense than I expected. I've let me doula know but told her not to come yet until I know if it's the real deal! Time to run a hot bath I think. Smile

Tootyfrooty35 · 24/03/2019 09:25

@luckykitty13 eeekkk, sending alllllll the labour vibes 💖

Nowt much here still... Had a bit of a preggo rage this morning as the kticheb was a bombsite. Banged a tin on the floor, had a reallllllllllyyyyy good cry and feel better now. Probably will spend the day eating cake and drinking tea, sweep tomorrow afternoon 🤞🤞🤞🤞

LuckyKitty13 · 24/03/2019 13:38

Baby girl born this morning 3.14am. 7lb 11oz. Quick and straightforward- no drugs, small tear. Breastfeeding well - a wonderful experience. We were home by 10am. Smile

myotherbagisgucci · 24/03/2019 13:41

Wow that's amazing @LuckyKitty13 congratulations! Xx

@LuckyKitty13 massive congratulations! Thanks glad all is well and your home snuggling your little baby xx

shiny888 · 25/03/2019 05:54

@CaseofEllen @Tootyfrooty35
How are you guys doing? Fed up? Or any signs that babies are on the way?
Iv had two failed sweeps since Thursday, which lead me to bursting into tears in the middle of next and got another today, although I imagine it will be another failed 🙄.
My partner says it's like living with a dragon at the moment 😂 haha!
Had such a productive day yesterday doing loads was on my feet from 10am and didn't sit until 6pm, hoping that something would have got moving but literally just gave me back ache! Xx

CaseofEllen · 25/03/2019 06:39

@shiny888 lots of signs, still no baby! DTD yesterday about 7pm, then had a bath. Contractions in my back started about 8.30pm every 10/12 minutes until midnight. Fell asleep and woke up 5/6 times between 12-6am with pains. Have been fairly regular since 6am so started timing them again.

Also lost more bloody mucus overnight, seems my show has been going on for days now Hmm feeling frustrated at my body as it's doing all the 'right things' yet nothing is turning into active labour. Feels like I've been and am going to be in this latent stage for days still. 2cm dilated, fully engaged, semi-regular contractions yet no baby!

Sorry to see your sweeps haven't worked so far, hoping the next one will be the one for you 🤞🏼 have you found them painful? I've had one and it was worse than I had imagined Blush
