Twinkle, I am glad you aren't dilating and it looks like you might get to go home!
I probably have 5-ish bh a day, but they don't hurt. They usually happen when I am extra active, or when I am getting my son buckled/unbuckled from his car seat. Sometimes it is uncomfortable though and it feels like I can't straighten up right.

Fx baby stays put for a while twinkle.
I had some awful pains this morning. For the past few days had period like pains then this morning horrendous back and stomach aches. Couldn't work out if it was baby related or just a dodgy tummy. I did end up with the runs too, sorry gross! Had a consultants appt at half 9 anyway so we went in. Dh actually did think i was in labour but i told him think labour is worse. Dr didn't seem concerned. Said it's just a practice, to rest and drink lots of fluids. Appt went well, finally feel like i am being monitored the way i should be. May be induced after 37 weeks due to all the issues i've had. The main one they are concerned with is that my platelets are low, i was the least concerned about that!! Appt on the 5th sep to decide whether to induce or not. Eek, it's all getting close now!

Broodymrs...wow 5th sept! Thats crazyly close to u meeting ur bub! I still have 8 weeks if i go the 40 and mine seems like forever away...im actually slightly jealous hehe! Im secretly hoping bub might wanna show up at 37 weeks...
Afm...well im feeling huge...i didnt swim for near enough two weeks and since my 30 week scan..being told to eat well cause bub will now put on a lot of weight, my healthy diet fell abruptly out the window : / whoops...
Also as for saying about not feeling BH...i had about 5 today! Bub seems to have flipped sides now so his back is on the left with his foot pushing out on the right which is feeling quite uncomfortable!
Im wishing away the weeks now..anyine else the same or is it just me??

I'm definitely wishing the weeks away at the moment. I've got 4 weeks left at work, and work are being so difficult right now. I've got the same, if not increased, caseload I had pre-pregnancy. It's all physical work with a lot of bending and kneeling and squeezing into small/cluttered spaces. I started at 8.30am this morning, by 11am I was nearly in tears with the pain in my back. I keep saying to them that I can't keep doing it but they're not listening. Really don't want to have to go off sick but its looking to be my only option if this continues.
Sorry to sound like I'm constantly moaning. Just feeling a bit let down.
Hope you've managed to go home twinkle. And that bubs of yours stays put for just a bit longer!

I keep telling myself I only have 5-10 weeks left. I know its important for her to fully cook but I'm so miserable and ready to meet her that I definitely wouldn't mind if she was a bit early. Not too early, of course, but early enough I don't rip my hair out with anxiety and misery.

I am wishing away the weeks too! I am so excited (and nervous!!) for her to be here. I just want to have everything done first- we still have to get a bassinet and a carseat and finish the nursery. I technically have 6 weeks left, but they will induce early around week 38 or 39 because of my GD. I hope we pick a date soon so I can have a count down!!

I'm only willing the next four weeks to pass quickly, after that time can slow down for a bit again!! Lol. We've still got a lot to do, not necessarily baby related, but jobs around the house to finish before LO makes his/her big arrival.

Girly..hmmm doesn't sound like ur job is particularly suitable for u and bub 
i cant imagine doing that work. You have to put you two before work hun so if u are in that much pain i think u should listen to your body...xx
Seems like im not the only one wishing away! Id be much busier if we were doing up our new property but still waiting on contracts to go through. So in our current rented property there is nothing to do...tick tock tick tock...
Oh...and having the worst sleep lately! I wake up like 20 times a night with the agony pains in my hips like they dislocated! i sleep with a pillow between my legs and have a duvet under me but nooo pain relief!

I'm definitely counting down the weeks I'm just too excited! and we have more or less everything we need, so I feel prepared apart from last minute bits like baby washing, hospital bag and assembling the little crib, bouncer chair and things like that. I'm holding off doing those things until around 36 weeks so I have something to do that's baby related to keep the excitement going. I obviously don't want her to come before 37 weeks though. Not until she's fully baked 
any time after 37/38 weeks would be fab though *pokes belly* keep telling her

Thanks hun. I've taken to warning work that if they don't ease off, I will be going off sick. Today was better, easier caseload = no backache today. But my BHs are starting to get slightly painful. Going to speak to my MW about it though. At the end of the day, this baby comes first, before anything else. Xx

Hey mamas! Sorry it's been a while since I posted last.
I don't want Liam to get here before 37 weeks either, but I am getting impatient for full term to get here already. This whole pregnancy has been miserable and I'm ready to be done.
We do still need a few more baby items though and DF's sister needs to be moved out of here by 37 weeks though. The nursery isn't finished yet either. We're still waiting on DF's mom to finish making the rest of the crib stuff and then Liz needs to be out of here before we can finalize the nursery. We're touring our maternity ward this week and we still need to find a pediatrician.

I think you have the right attitude girly. Baby def has to come first.
I wouldn't be induced on 5th sep, that's just when the decision will be made! Induction would be 12th sep at the earliest. I am def counting down the weeks, although i am in the middle of my masters so trying to get all my work done so i don't have to do it once dylan arrives. It is taking forever.

Hey guys...... I am kind of a mixture of emotions at the moment with all these contractions. On one hand I need the baba to stay in for a few more weeks to get cooked but on the other hand I am in such constant pain I certainly couldn't last until 40 weeks!! We shall see what this little one decides to do!
They let me out of hospital on strict bed rest and on red alert for any changes what so ever. So back in the waiting game.
We don't have everything we need by any means but we have essentials and sure the nursery etc can get finished as soon as we can as baby will be with us in the Moses basket anyway for a while. Think we do need one of those bouncers though.,,..,I have heard that they are reat right from the start to put baba in as they can see around themselves etc what do you girls think about them?
Sorry about all the sleeping problems and horrible pains ladies that you are having I guess the pregnancy "glow" stage may have truly disappeared for us all! :-o

I totally forgot about the hospital bag and finding a pediatrician. That will be my job this week! Been so busy lately I am forgetting so much.
I have been waking up with those hip pains too! They suck! It is like a charlie horse in the hip and you can't get it out. I will be happy when I can sleep on my stomach again.
As far as bouncers go, we got one! All of my friends with babies swear by them!! I am sure all babies like different things, but so many people have said that it did wonders so we invested!!
