Hiya Kirsty, welcome to BnB!

It's natural to worry about that, can't your OH come and stay with your whilst you're due? x

 

[Maybe baby]

welcome...is there any way ure OH could stay with you during your final week?

Hey hun. First off congratulations. Its completely natural to be scared. I was due yesterday and my induction date is set for the 17th of april. As soon as I got that date I was like OH CRAP!!!!!!!! I do however live with my OH but he is almost never home so I am pretty sure I will be alone when I first start going into labor. Theres an april mummies thread in the third tri section if you want to come join us all. There are quite a few young mummies in there too and we talk about anything you could possibly imagine. You should pop in and say hello!

Hey, welcome to BnB!

It's normal to feel tired and sick of being pregnant in those last few weeks

I'm 35 yrs old sweetie and pregnant with my first. My husband and mother (if mother doesn't make it in time best friend) will be with me... and I'm still scared to death of all the unknown things that are going to happen when I go into labour.
So many questions that can only be answered on that day.

It is a completely normal feeling. Maybe you should talk to your mom and see if she will allow your OH to come stay with you in your final days. Tell her your fears. She might be understanding and allow him to stay with you.

Good luck sweetie...

I was in same position, me and my oh dont live together and i was so scared about going into labour and not being able to get hold of him and him not being there because he works as a bus driver it so hard to get hold of him but luckily ive been booked in for a csection so aslong as i dont go into labour before my oh will be there which has been a worry of my mind. As people have said you could always invite friends over or is there another family members were you could go so your not alone??
