Oh I'm so jealous of all you mummies who are holding their babies already! I'm so impatient!!

Baby is down low for me so I'm getting lots of shooting pains into my legs... Plus I'm gassy, yay. Gonna DTD tonight to see if it sparks anything at all.

When you say you've had shooting pains into your legs what do you mean? I've been getting like shooting pains into my hip joints but not necessarily down my leg, do you think this could be because babies head is engaging? It really catches me off guard and my leg buckles!

Halfway through due date and no signs of baby coming today

Yeah it's baby settling on your nerves... Most likely the obturator nerve. It usually happens near the end of pregnancy when baby gets lower into the pelvis.

As soon as I walked into town this morning I was getting tightenings and pain in my lower belly - but nothing else the rest of the day when resting. Have consultant tomorrow to discuss my growth scan and big baby - really hoping they don't induce me now just need till Thursday then they can do what they like.

Awww, hope u meet ur baby soon Lisa, have u got an induction date if u go overdue?

 

[Lisaloo82]

No date yet. With it being my 2nd I wasn't due to see midwife u til 8days over (last seen her at 38 weeks) wasn't very happy with that as developed high bp and protein in urine with ds at 40 weeks so was eager to get checked today. I rang them with my concerns and they saw me this morning. My bp is on the rise but only slowly. And measurements seem to be all over the place since 28 weeks. Big, small now big again. So hospital appoint tomos for assessment. Hoping they will talk about induction there xx

Hopefully the sun finally coming out will encourage more babies to come out too!

I'm so grumpy with dh right now. I've got my parents asking how his job hunt is going - every day. It doesn't matter how many times I say i'll let them know when there is any news. Then i'm stressed because there really isn't any news and I hate that we're getting close to when he should have been paid and I'm going to have to use my savings for leave to get by and then maybe go back to work early.

I'm being asked all the time if there's any sign of baby, from friends, family, colleagues and even the women who work at my daughter's nursery who all come out and say "are you STILL pregnant?!"

Last night i'd had enough and came to lie on the bed and just cry. I've woken up and still have the hump with dh.

My next mw app isn't until i'm overdue and so now I don't even have a date for when they'll start helping things along.

Thanks for the rant!

Hello due date ......sigh!!!

[CottlestonPie]

Aw ladies, I'm sorry you're still waiting. COME ON BABIES!

 

[Lisaloo82]

Hey mellie how u feeling? These boys r gonna keep us waiting I think.

I had hospital referral this morn. Didn't do much. Requested scan so should get one thurs or fri. Monitored me for half hour. All fine and then midwife gave me a sweep. Ouch!!! She will sweep me again when I come for scan as she thinks il need a few more. at least it's something. Better than waiting til next week to start anything which was the plan of my local midwife xx

 

[Lisaloo82]

Aw ladies, I'm sorry you're still waiting. COME ON BABIES!

How u doing huni? I haven't kept up to date with the thread lately but see h had a planned section 29th. Hope u and babies r good and Lil Toby xx

Oh excellent Lisa you got the sweep ! I really don't know what to do today if it's offered to me. Tried calling dh but he's busy in the office . Font want to say no and then dh and family think I should etc...... I probably won't be offered one now after all this

My mw hasn't even mentioned it to me, just told me to make my next app for two weeks time when i'm 40+1 and that she'll see me at home if I have baby before then.

Hoping she comes by herself as i've heard the sweep isn't nice!

 

[danielle1984]

Got my sweep yesterday and I doubt it did anything. I didn't even spot from it, or lost my plug : (
I'm not getting one until next week appointment on Monday which is the day just before EDD. Argh! Come on baby.

Sweep wasn't painful, I think it depends who does it maybe. I just felt some discomfort.
