Yes I think I'm gonna be an extreme about 3-4 weeks early or 2 weeks over.
Someone I know had a baby yesterday a little girl, I'm awaring a pic even though they don't know I'm havin a girl. Gonna get so jelous when I see a pic

 

[EmandBub]

aww congrats to them :-D

[MadamRose]

yes, I really don't wanna go over I would actually cry. 37 or 38 weeks would be nice

 

[EmandBub]

i'll be doing anything by 40 weeks to get her out!

I know I'm kinda late but does anyone want to be my bump buddy!

 

[EmandBub]

Yeah I loved having a baby shortly before Christmas the first time (Kyree was born Nov 23) and it will be just as nice this time. Since you always get together with family at Christmas, it gives everyone a chance to see her... and it makes Christmas that much more special having your little munchkin there with you.

 

[MommyKC]

Yeah it sucks going over, trust me! I went 5 days over and every day felt like an eternity. I tried everything to get her out, but she was just too comfy in there! But really, in the end, it doesn't make a difference as long as you have a healthy baby.

And like I've said, patience is a virtue! Whether they are born 2 weeks early or one week late, its only a 3 week difference which isn't long at ALL in comparison to how long we wait during the whole pregnancy.

 

[EmandBub]

& it also means you can have a sip of the eggnog

[MadamRose]

Yes will be nice having baby for Christmas as it's a family time. From 37 weeks I'm gonna try to get her out
They named the baby lacey

 

[EmandBub]

only 10 weeks to go then loverly!
that's really sweet

[MadamRose]

Yes I was read a thing about the myths that are menna get labour started. Someone asked there midwife and only 2 work pineapple due to enzymes in it, has 2 be fresh pineapple, and sex or even more so apparently swallowing semen due to enzymes. Sounds lovely when pregnant hey. Wouldn't mind the pineapple thing though. Well your full term at 37 weeks so don't see it as a prob

 

[EmandBub]

don't think i'll be wanting to do the deed by then!
i'll crush Luke

[MommyKC]

So true Em, about the eggnog! I found myself pretty exhausted though! Kyree was barely a month old at her first Christmas so I was up frequently at night, and then having to do all the family stuff wore me out!
This baby should be 2 months old though, so it may be a bit easier at least.

And Lacey is a really cute name! Im hoping this baby comes earlier than Kyree did, but not TOO early! I want to have enough time to get fully prepared and have some one-on-one time with Kyree before she is born. And my maternity leave doesn't officially start until October 18th so if she comes earlier than that, I will have to adjust all of my dates with my employer.

 

[EmandBub]

just means i have to also save up for some x-mas prezzies! :-D
being completely shattered is never fun
xx

 

[MommyKC]

Yeah I've already started my christmas shopping, in preparation for being on mat leave and being broke!

Yeah, well having a new baby ALWAYS = being exhausted! Just comes with the territory.

 

[EmandBub]

best get all my sleep now!
but it's quite hard to find a comfortable sleep position these days
i was used to sleeping on my back or front
never was one to sleep on my side
xx

 

[MommyKC]

Yeah I know what you mean, I've always been a stomach sleeper... so I always find that I want to sleep that way but can't right now. And this heat doesn't make it much better. But all in all, I haven't been sleeping THAT bad all things considered.

[EmandBub]

oo yes i'm whinging again..
sorry ladies!
