Congratulations!

I'm 39 weeks on Christmas day, so due 1 January 2020. Could well be she decides to join us for Christmas though!

I'm due on Saturday with baby number one and I feel nothing in terms of labour signs. I an convinced he is going to be horribly overdue and arrive on Christmas day 😂

Comps83 · 09/12/2019 08:56

@Mamabear12 congrats! Don’t think mine is coming soon . Our Xmas babies thread filled up and got moved to ante-natal so I opened a Christmas babies 3 on there if you’d like to go tell people the good news

Mamabear12 · 09/12/2019 09:15

Ah yes, will do!

Lulufluff · 09/12/2019 11:02

Shaunieh95 · 09/12/2019 11:17

I'm due next Monday and he was born 2 weeks ago today! Congratulations OP have a lovely Christmas with your new baby xx

MoominKitty · 09/12/2019 12:39

Congrats!!! I'm due the 20th with my first but no sign of him yet 😔.

Inthesky42 · 09/12/2019 12:39

Congrats! Mine due Friday 13th and no signs yet.. I'm thinking he may end up being a Christmas baby but I hope not! Doing everything to encourage him out!

Ilovethekitties · 09/12/2019 13:17

@Inthesky42 can I ask what you're trying? I am due on the 14th and also trying everything I can think of lol

Inthesky42 · 09/12/2019 13:23

@ilovethekitties Long walks, bouncing on my ball, squats, pineapple juice, sex! Nothing seems to be working though :p

Jowd92 · 09/12/2019 17:02

Aww congrats!! My due date was 29th dec but I'm being induced on the 15th and cant wait I'm so ready to have this baby now

lyd4165 · 09/12/2019 17:07

Congratulations! My third is due on the 28th and I am soooo worried he will come early and I’ll miss Christmas with my other two! :(

xTinkerbell · 09/12/2019 17:08

40+3, failed sweep and feeling so emotional today. Induction booked for a week on thurs, I really don’t want to be induced but basically told today my body is nowhere near ready so it’s looking more and more likely I think

Wubbawubba · 09/12/2019 19:24

Due the 12th, failed sweep Thursday due to closed cervix but was nice and soft for consultant today - had a good sweep and lost bloody show this evening. Due another sweep Thursday then CTG and sweep and discuss induction Monday if baby still not here, due to 3 incidences of reduced movement. Consultant said he would be happy to break my waters and start drip today as body & Baby ready but keen to avoid medical induction if possible. 😩

MrsS7 · 09/12/2019 19:39

41 weeks tomorrow, hoping the midwife can do a sweep on Wednesday as my body wasn’t ready for one at 40+1. Would love to avoid induction but at the moment I feel like my body’s forgotten that this baby is supposed to come out!

xTinkerbell · 10/12/2019 11:41

@Wubbawubba that gives me hope that I might be able to have a successful sweep on Monday after a failed one yesterday. Good luck, hope things progress for you

Ilovethekitties · 10/12/2019 14:34

I'm getting induced today due to reduced movements at 39+3, wish me luck!

Nixby3 · 10/12/2019 14:50

Good luck! I had 2 inductions and they were absolutely fine and straightforward

jpaws · 10/12/2019 18:03

Good luck!
I'm booked to have a sweep tomorrow at 40 weeks. Hoping it works although know it may not.

ohdearymemumof3 · 11/12/2019 22:09

@Ilovethekitties i hope everythings going great for you today and hope your little one is here safely xx
