I'm so done with pregnancy tonight! 38 weeks tomorrow and booked in for ELCS at 39+2.

Been in to be checked over today - I've been having some heart palpitations and baby was particularly lively last night and while waiting to be seen.

Bump was monitored for 40 minutes (he napped for 20 of them 🙄) and I had an ECG and full blood count done. Staff at the hospital were satisfied we're both ok, which is great 😁 but tonight.. Urgh!

Braxton hicks on and off, baby wriggling constantly (usually be more settled than this so wondering if he knows something I don't), heartburn killing me, zero appetite and generally exhausted. I'm OVER being pregnant and potentially still got 10 days left.

Anyone else fed up and on the final countdown?

Yep! 37+4 today and hyper aware of every twinge. Shattered, fat, uncomfortable, anaemic and still throwing up. Very ready for him to make an appearance! Is it your first?

@Oodlesofdoodlescockapoodles hopefully not too much longer to wait! 🤞🏻 is he your first?

No this is my second, and I assumed I'd feel as rested at this point as I did when pregnant with my first. I slept so well during that pregnancy! This time.. not so much Hmm my pelvic pain and rotten cold just needs to do one.
