Am 37 weeks today and just completely knackered! I was up at 7 with DD to get her sorted for school and then had to do the almost 2 mile trip there and back taking her. She is only at school in the mornings atm, so I have to go and do it all again in about half an hour as it is taking me an hour to drop off/collect her.
Baby is still laying transverse and as yet, I don't know what the plan is. I've never experienced it before, DD was a good text book baby but DS is different. Have to go back to the ANC today for repeat blood tests which involves yet another 2+mile trek there and the same back.
Added to all of this, I have been getting strong BH for about four days now, my feet, ankles and hands have swelled up and I am writing my dissertation for uni, which is due in in 3 weeks. I want to talk to the MW when I go for my bloods this pm, but they won't check the position of the baby or talk about what they can do because it is a drop in for bloods only. I have a raised white blood cell count, which is getting higher and higher, hence the repeated bloods every two weeks so I'm wondering if they will tell me I need a CS (which actually, I'm not too bothered about, althought I probably should be).
I just want to sleep and for a long, long time! My house is a state, I have no motivation to do anything other than sleep. I haven't even packed my hospital bag yet, nor the bag for DD to take when we drop her at my mum's. I was hoping the nesting thing would kick in, but no, not a sign of it and I don't think its likely either, as didn't get it with DD either.
DH has been fab this week. He has only done part time hours (self-employed) so I have had a bit of a rest, but I feel like I've been hit by a bus. He's working today and I really want him to come home, but as he's been so helpful lately, thought better of asking him.
Sorry this is long, but thanks for listening!
