39 weeks and impatiently waiting for babies arrival, she's due on Dd1's birthday and really hope she arrives before then.

I have absolutely no signs of labour, BH are ongoing and have been for weeks so no changes there.

Midwife said on Tuesday baby still hasn't dropped down, she said I could have a sweep day before dd1's birthday. Which is t ideal but depends if baby has started to engage.

Anyone else starting to feel super impatient in the final weeks. Any tips to get things going?

No tips but feel your pain. I went to nearly 42 weeks with my first, she was eventually manually extracted (section) as I’d had absolutely no signs of labour and didn’t want an induction. Thankfully have a section booked at 39+5 this time, very nice knowing I won’t go over again! Hope baby makes their appearance soon!

I’m 39 weeks too - caught between desperately wanting baby out and not actually wanting to go into labour yet 😫

I have a sweep booked for due date, induction booked for 41. I know I definitely don’t want to be induced so next week I’ll be like a crazy woman trying to get baby on the move!
