If I have missed you! Sorry! I did quickly scan through the start of the last thread, to add people and update the list, but only did this quick.

Yes @1990shopefulftm I've been thinking how big will mine be! I wouldn't be so impatient if I felt okay but being in so much discomfort and getting loads of 'labour symptoms' followed by nothing is so disheartening!

@sophs29 yes I feel the same, I ve had what I thought were contractions a couple of times last night then nothing, so I have to keep telling myself to be patient and stop being so hopeful.

@1990shopefulftm I did too last night! was adamant I'd wake up in the night with 'proper' contractions but nothing!
How far along are you? x

@sophs29 I m 39+6 so at this point I know baby is going to be late as tonight doesn't feel like the night.

Awww @1990shopefulftm even though we know babies hardly come on there due date (my first son was born at exactly midnight on his due date so he was an exception) 😂 we still get our hopes up they'll be here for the due date! I'm now 40+3 so hopefully our bubbas make an appearance soon ☺️

I feel like my baby is totally confused today. We’ve been shopping then on the drive home and ever since I’ve had awful stomach ache. It’s not like cramps though, it just feels like continuous trapped wind and baby is really active. She seems to be pushing out of my skin like she is trying to escape but the wrong way! I can’t imagine this means anything birth wise but I hope it doesn’t last much longer 😩

@Sls668 my due date twin! I hope things get moving for you. my little one is 17 days old now it's going so fast, I'm so sleep deprived it's crazy, I had about an hour last night as he just didn't want to get off my breast I think he was cluster feeding. I wouldn't trade it for the world though when I see his little face. Really hoping your little one arrives soon it all sounds promising though and going the right way xx

Like lots of you I've had so many down days. Massive love to you all xxxxx

@SamK93 aww we feel lightyears apart now! I’m so jealous! I feel like I’ll be the last to give birth on here as I’d be one of the last to be induced and she seems to be moving upwards rather than downwards! My OH keeps reminding me it’s baby’s first time too so she doesn’t know what she’s doing either 😂
Sounds like you’re getting on really well, I’ll know who to come to for breastfeeding advice!

I keep telling myself baby will come out one way or another, no one stayed pregnant forever. In the meantime I am lazying around on a sofa with some cross stitching and some series on the telly.

Omg I love cross stitching and I was cross stitching last time I went into labour!! I've done one for the baby's room. Just need to put her date and weight on when she's born.

not long to go till your baby is here, how exciting! I hope you're feeling relaxed and ready ... that's so important for an easier birth.

Do tell others too - I set up the free Zooms to support women/couples during these difficult times :) I hope you'll make the most of this support yourself! Kristin x

Congratulations @Flora20 💐💐

@Mc3209 cross stitching is so relaxing

My waters just went 😬
I highly recommend putting a puppy training pad or something similar under your sheets...

I shall update you once I am on the other side.

Good luck @Mc3209 hope things start to progress quickly and your soon getting cuddles.

Good luck @Mc3209 xx

Good luck @Mc3209

Good luck @Mc3209!!

@CurlyMummy1912 think you called it with the cross stitching! 😂

Good luck @Mc3209!!

I'm on my way into triage! Mucus plug reached new levels of goo today and I'm having contractions. Will keep you updated xx

Eeek good luck @Mc3209 and @CurlyMummy1912 the rest of us need to get cross stitching!

Ahh all the best @CurlyMummy1912

Good luck ladies

Ah all these babies on the way is so exciting!
Good luck @CurlyMummy1912 and @Mc3209
Hope all the new mamas with their little ones here are getting on okay !

And for those of us still waiting, come on out babies!

@CurlyMummy1912 good luck!

Hit the nail on the head there @LadyB90 - these babies need to get a wriggle on. Feel like we’ve been pregnant years!
