38 weeks and DONE

[KateTTC123]

Anyone else? I'm exhausted all the time, fed up with being sore, and I'm beyond huge! The light at the end of the tunnel is that my scan tomorrow will help decide if I get induced or not.
Anyone else suffering out there and fancy company?
Also, this is dc2 so I know things are going to be really tough when baby comes too but I'm so over being pregnant now!

Yep still pregnant. Hopefully won’t be much longer! Have consultant on Weds so will how that goes.

Still pregnant ! Thought maybe things were starting last night but nothing today. Due on Thursday

Still pregnant here too! Everyone in my family keeps texting to ask... do they think I'll forget to tell them?!

Haha yeah I know what you mean! “Nah I had the baby 2 days ago and didn’t tell you” 🙄

Still bloody pregnant here. Maybe the baby is holding out for nicer weather?

Is it me or is the symptom guessing at this stage the worst bit?

I'm in the bath at the moment with back pain and twinges. Feeling a bit funny but can't but feel like I'm overthink every thing haha

*cant help but feel I'm overthinking

Yes! Feeling the same, back is really aching but I cant decide if its just how I have been sitting. Baby feels like shes 'burrowing' a bit as lots of pressure in my bum (Tmi?) But then if I feel my ribs I feel like shes pretty high still. Who knows.

Desperate to not go into labour at night as it makes things more difficult with DD1!

Yeah I know exactly what you mean. When I went to the midwife last, bubs was already partly engaged yet I still have a bum under my ribs. Lots of shoving doing on, leading to those delightful stabbing pains down below. Feels like he's definitely running out of space in there!

I feel no symptoms at all now. Feel like I could stay like this for ages. No twinge or pressure. I wonder if baby has moved.

@cja06 I am the same as you. Sitti g here feel some minor twinges and pains in my legs and definetly feel like baby is burrowing lower.... Ftm so no idea what is normal at this stage what are the start of contractions and what are BH🙈

@Lorrie3 I remember having lots of twinges and pains for weeks leading up to my first. I do have suspicions that I was in slow labour for a while though and just didn't realise.

Still no baby, had a stretch and sweep yesterday though which led to contractions last night but faded out enough to sleep through - let’s see how today goes!!

Oh god I understand completely. I'm 32 weeks and still have a way to go. My backs constantly hurting, have swelling of the hands and feet and my stomach is beyond huge. I hope your little one arrives soon so you can get some relief.

Just been offered an induction for next week because I live 1 hr from hospital and last baby came quickly, arrived in hospital at 5, babe in arms at half 8. I'm not sure what to do!!

Baby has arrived!! 38 and 5 and only a four hour labor, from first twinge to baby!! So different from last time! She's a total cracker!

Congratulations!!!

@KateTTC123 aaah congrats :)

Yay! Well done.

Ah congratulations!!! Well done you. S&S didn’t work so am now being induced. Sat up the hospital now waiting for Propess to work - could be a long haul, glad I have my kindle!

Good luck @babbit87 hope things start moving along for you soon.

I think trying to get in rest before our babies come is some sort of joke people play on us. I can't remember the last time I slept all night and actually cried this morning I was so tired. Hip pain all night, followed by pains and BH every time I turned over. Absolutely exhausted

Hope it's all going well Babbit.

Congrats Kate! How's it going Babbit?
I'm so uncomfortable, I can't wait to get this baby out!

Aw cja06 how are you feeling now?

Baby arrived on Wednesday! Propess took aaaaaaaages then suddenly too quickly - 20 mins and no pain killers (not by choice) 😳 ouch! All ok now - baby boy thankfully a small yet healthy 6lb 13oz 😉. Enjoying snuggles - good luck everyone!!

Congrats Babbit!
