Same as usual... I've never been this over due before... but oh well... I've come to the realisation that baby will arrive when he's ready... that or he'll be lifted out the sunroof.

Fingers crossed this is it for you!

I'm the same, you start to just accept it don't you, when I got my show I would have expected to be overjoyed but I just thought "meh, could be nothing"!
I've started to just accept that baba is totally calling the shots here!! :-)

I've been losing lots of mucus the last two days - not sure if it's "a show"? Thought that came in one go..?

I've also had lots of energy the last two days. Cleaning windows, scrubbing floors... I HATE cleaning! Must be the nesting finally happening hahaha took long enough.

I'm definitely ready for this baby to come out now cos my butt is sore from bouncing on my ball.

January

Your show can come away in bits and pieces

John Mason

got a hot stone massage this morning, and she done some pressure points on my feet to get things moving but not holding out for anything.

my give my my reflexologist a buzz next week

January

Everyone keeps telling me to have sex... that having sex will definitely bring it on... only thing is I haven't been in the mood for sex in weeks and himself hasn't gotten it in two weeks... but I just know that if we do the deed and I go into labour tomorrow he'll never let me forget it lol

I think it would be the furthest thing from my mind or interests in late pregnancy !

Chattastrophe!

Jesus I don't think we managed it once in the nine months! In fairness we were advised not to in the first few months (lots of bleeding etc) and then after that it was just too uncomfortable. But the thoughts of even attempting it at nine months?! Nooooo!!!!! Not a chance!

John Mason

Himself hasn't a clue as to why he is getting so much, not that he is complaining:-)

Just putting the finishing touches to the cot mobile and will make the lamp shade tomorrow, then I think I am finished with the nursery until, I look on pinterest and see some other nursery essential

Where do you get the energy ? Even reading a book was too challenging .

Paternity leave starts tomorrow 4 weeks of him at home when I am barely used to him being in the country for that long at a time . once he does the school run I will be happy though he won't as it is hellish , ah well

January

Just schedule baba's feeds for around the time of the school run.

So confused yet again! Been having contractions all day since my show this morning but they've been fairly irregular and mild, now this eve they are 5-10 mins apart but still manageable....I thought I'd be in agony when they were that time apart and should be going to the hosp but I don't even feel like I'm in labour....soooo lost!!!

Moonbeam

1 is @1 week old and the other a few hours old .

If they become regular and less then 10 minutes apart then you should probably head to the hospital or ring them anyway .
I did not feel like I was in labour this time but woke himself up anyway knowing he would want a shower etc before we left and you are better to be there then having contractions 1 minute apart in the car .
I will be thinking of you , good luck

I'd ring the hospital if I were you ... my contractions were just like that when I headed into hospital, they were close together but the pain was totally manageable, as in I could walk and talk through them, ended up giving birth just a couple of hours later!

Good luck!

cos think about it, you have other children and a house to run. i am just have me to worry about and tbh, i really havent had to do anything for myself for months

i havent worked since the being of February, himself had to do all the cooking and cleaning for 2 months when i was out of action. so i just lay around, reading, going for lunch, beauty salon

if i dont want to get out of bed for the day i dont have to. Himself is home at 4.30pm every day, makes the dinner and cleans up/

you would have loads of energy to waste time to.

i know how lucky i have been over the last 3 months, i will be honest it has been heaven BUT it is making me concerned when the baby comes, because i have got so used to quiet me time

Oh wow look at those big eyes! She's absolutely beautiful! Congrats!

Still nothing happening here. I was bouncing for hours last night while watching tv, but nothing is working.


Got some bad news this morning. My sister called me to tell me my stepdad had a heart attack and was brought to hospital. I'm still in shock. He's only 55. They put in a stent and want him to stay a few days for observation and further treatment if needed and then to a rehabilitation center for a few weeks. I think he's still in shock as he seems to think he only needs to rest a bit and can go back to construction work Monday. I hate getting calls like that. Especially now that I'm not even able to fly home. Thank god he's ok and they are looking after him in the hospital. I feel awful bad not being able to visit.

Moonbeam

Aww, that is awful news but he will be OK and hopefully you get to see him soon to show off baby
