6 days Overdue - need some advice

6 replies

nwintour1 · 10/03/2020 15:58

I’m not sure if I’m doing this website right but I am desperate for some advice - I’m currently 6 days overdue with my second baby, and I am struggling massively! Since I was about 30 weeks all anyone has said to me is “oh your deffo going to be early” “your so low already” etc etc
So, as everyone can imagine, I’m now nearly a week over and I’m so bored of hearing how shocked everyone is, and everyone’s pineapple/sex/clary sage/curry advice. I’ve tried it all.
But I am really struggling with the emotional side, I want to cry all the time, I’m fed up of not being able to roll over, move like a normal person or play with my oldest (little girl who’s 3) I am struggling with a LOT of mummy guilt for her, and feel so bad that I’m exhausted and can’t play with her like normal!
Please someone give me some advice on how to cope mentally!

I was 5 days late and those 5 days were so hard so I totally feel your pain, I felt like I was getting bigger abs bigger every day. What helped me was a sweep, have you got one booked in? Xx

Sarahc336 that’s exactly how I feel! It’s so draining waking up and knowing nothing is happening! I’ve got one booked in for tomorrow at my 41 week appointment! Fingers crossed it helps! Xx

I can totally relate !!
I served a proper eviction notice on my daughter when I was still pregnant !
42 +3 by the time she was hauled out the sunroof !!
I was miserable the last couple of weeks, I had developed sciatica down my left side, couldn't walk properly, felt like total shit.

Hopefully baby will decide to exit soon for you x chin up love your in home stretch x

You’re doing so well, it’s final countdown now. Have you been to midwife / due to go soon? Have you a sweep booked?
Best thing to do for mind and body would be to walk walk walk ... good for your head and hopefully get baby moving too

Sorry just seen you’re seeing midwife tomorrow - hope she will give you good news if you’re getting close!

Thanks everyone! That’s what’s keeping me going knowing it will have to end at some point!
Hoping my sweep tomorrow will get things moving!
My poor other half is a saint at the minute! I said I just need to be locked into a room by myself till I give birth Grin xx
