39+5 fed up!

Just needed to rant really… I’m 39+5 and feeling very fed up now. This is my 3rd pregnancy and I was either in labour/had delivered my baby by now in my previous pregnancies. I know baby will come when it’s ready etc but it’s frustrating just waiting around! I’ve tried all the ‘usual’ things and want to avoid any form of induction (including a sweep) so just looking for some solidarity really!! This is a rainbow baby so the excitement I have to meeting this little person is huge!! I’m hoping going for a pedicure today will help relax me and move things along!!

Good luck! Been there OP. With both my children, I went to the car wash and then gave birth two days later. Give it a go! 😆

Make very exciting plans for a few days time… the baby will be sure to arrive in time to scupper the plans 😁

@BeccaStore the OP posted this in September, so I'd put my house on it that she has a 3 month old!

Baby brain I didn’t even realise 😂

I do have a 3 month old! He eventually came at 40+6 😬😂
