Hi ladies, I’m due on the 20th but think I will be early. How is everyone doing?

I'm due on the 5th - first baby was 40+2 but I was hoping this one would be a few days early! I feel like a whale.
She's so low now that I'm starting to get fed up and everything is a bit uncomfortable - I'm definitely looking into every little twinge etc hoping it's a sign.
DH's birthday is on the 8th and I really hope she doesn't come on his birthday as would hate for them to share the date.

Good luck to everyone else due this month!

Bless you @Countrylane, me too! Flowers

Thank you @LittleTiger007!

[quote AyyX]@LittleTiger007 oh that’s good to know! Thanks for the information Grin
Hope you get to meet your baby soon and everything goes smoothly! Xx[/quote]
Thank you! This rainbow baby has been over a decade in the waiting... 🙂 wishing well for you too! I can’t wait to see photos of our May babies here!

@cem90 the 5th is not a long wait! Not long now, hopefully... I feel you on the whale front! 🤪
I hope your little ones don’t share a birthday. Someone I know in the USA had her third baby on April 6, the same date as her daughter 2 years ago AND her first son 4 years ago! All 3 share the same birthdate two years apart! The likelihood of that is very rare! (Clearly 4th of July parties leads to a big day for baby making in that household! 😂)

@cem90 sorry not little ones but baby and husband. I misread. Hoping for a safe delivery, at least it will be a lovely birthday gift for your husband!

@LittleTiger007 I’ve had a few issues with cord blood flow so I may have to be induced. I’ve got a growth scan tomorrow to check on this and they said they’ll then like to induce me at 37 weeks if it has tailed off. Quite scary considering I’m 36+4!

Bu2014 · 03/05/2021 14:57

Due on the 24th but think it will be early!

hereforallthehelp · 03/05/2021 17:30

Also due 24th! Getting braxton hicks now and wondering how you can tell from these to real contractions!

LaMadrilena · 03/05/2021 20:04

@mouldygrapes I'm due 23rd, also having another scan on the 12th due to her being small. They said she might have to come out early - caesarian wasn't mentioned, but I'm suspecting it might end up that way. Trying not to stress... Hope yours goes ok!

thefishthatcouldwish · 03/05/2021 21:18

Hi everyone 👋

Can I join?

Am due 29th May after 5 years and a successful IVf round. Can’t wait to meet my little man now.

Bobbots · 03/05/2021 21:52

Thanks @LittleTiger007 I’m quite nervous now! Going to try and get some sleep but my two year old is already in our bed 😂

lucymagoo · 03/05/2021 21:56

Due on 17th, my family have started a sweepstake and are all betting he's going to come late Grin except my husband who has put his money on one day early, glad someone has faith in us!

I've had my mucous plug coming away the past 24 hours which is promising! Also he was 2/5 engaged at last appointment 2 weeks ago, hoping he's even more engaged at the 38 week appointment tomorrow! I have faith the little man will be on time Smile

LayingLow · 03/05/2021 22:19

@LittleTiger007 my other 3 are age 5.. 3 and 15 months, the older 2 have autism and can't talk very well so not sure how they are feeling, my daughter 5 knows there's a baby in my tummy so she is prepared for that but if she's happy about it or not I dont know haha!..

CLeighannHxo · 03/05/2021 23:48

I'm also due on the 29th...
There were concerns at my last growth scan about baby not growing as expected on the chart they use, I've got another growth scan on Thursday. They said that if there's no improvement on growth then they will induce me but if there is improvement they will leave me till 39 weeks.

4weekstogo · 04/05/2021 06:20

I'm due on 31st but I'm really hoping he comes early I'm so done with being pregnant. I have a midwife appointment today hoping he's turned as he was breach last time I went 🤞🏼

Come on baby please get out now 🥰

Mammamia365 · 04/05/2021 08:04

I’m due on the 18th and I really want to meet the little one already. At midwife appointment today I hope to find out if head is engaged. Really can’t wait now Grin

workingmummyof2soontobe3 · 04/05/2021 11:09

I’m due on the 30th just want him to hurry up now so we can meet home and I’m feeling very uncomfortable x

OldFirstTimeMum · 04/05/2021 13:54

Hi Ladies! please can I join? I am expecting my much awaited first baby on the 15th. I am so ready! exhausted doesn't cover it!

LittleTiger007 · 04/05/2021 13:59

Hello all and welcome to everyone! I’m hoping this thread will be a place we can share what we are going through and encourage each other and also share the ups and downs of labour as it starts? Maybe? Especially if it’s dragging and we need a hand hold. Also to share the news of happy arrivals!
If I put all our due dates on a list/calendar then people can add info as we go. Does that sound ok? Do you want more info added such as if it’s your first or if you know whether you are expecting a boy or a girl or don’t know?
