September 2021 due date babies!!!

No pains for me today (though it is only 10am) I think I’ve had enough over the last 4 days! But the pressure I’m feeling this morning is building. It was meant to rain all day today but it’s now sunny, the girls have asked to go on a bike ride - so that’s the plan - means I can get a bit of walking in too!
 
I did eventually. The pains are here today with a vengeance but inquest of they are more pelvic pains as they really kicked off when I walked the dog this morning . Been up since 6. Every time I roll over it hurts as lyning on the sofa.
 
@Bittersweet sounds like baby’s head is low and causing lots of discomfort! When is your next appointment?
 
Oh girls it sucks!

I can’t even lie in bed without the having to turn over every 30-45 mins and when I sit up my tailbone goes numb. Never really had this with the others but wasn’t on bed rest with them. My pelvis feels like it’s going to break and this cystitis I’ve constantly got is horrendous. The pressure is horrendous, I have constant headaches too and nausea all day yesterday and today and loads of constipation. The joys!

It’s laughable my ticker says 6.5lbs but at 35 weeks he was estimated 6lbs 12 god I hope it’s wrong lol

P.s i thought the heartburn was suppose to go by now! :haha:
 
If I wasn’t here I wouldn’t be induced until 39 weeks. I have such mixed feelings one part of me wants to have at home at 39 weeks to get the birth I wanted and savour that last few weeks since its my last pregnancy the other part of me is fed up and want it to be over!
 
@Bittersweet fingers crossed! My midwife didn’t think I’d make my 38 week appointment at 38+3 on Wednesday but I’m pretty sure I will! Not even sure she’s allowed to do a stretch or anything til 40 but I may ask anyway
 
I find it so fustrating in some ways because I feel like it’s our bodies we should get the choice on what they do!
 
@Bittersweet thats why I’ll ask especially as I’ll likely be 40+3 until I see her again after that. All she can say is no, but she’s supportive of my home birth so she may get how much I was to get things going.
 
Haha madam honestly the things we do to get these babies coming
 
@Bittersweet im 99% sure it’s what kick started things with my 2nd went on a walk to my sisters for a bbq, then walked back after (down the bumpy canal path) labour started at 2am the next morning
 
@Bittersweet is there an option of you going home now? Since even if you have the baby early it’ll be okay now? Then you could still have a home birth! I’m not sure if there are other risks or anything with cervix tunneling though as I don’t know much about it. But if they had you in bed rest so you wouldn’t go early, but now you are in a safe timeline maybe they would let yoy
 
Lost more of my bloody show - at what point can I have a tantrum at my body for being such a tease :evil:
 
@Zoboe95 that’s funny, I’ve seen so many of them too maybe that’s not helping :haha:

@MadamRose that’s so annoying! They did do a sweep for me at 39 weeks with Eloise only time been that early but couldn’t completely reach it. Still needed a pessary but they did say I was 2/3 cm. standardly where I am now they would break your waters fhen but where I live they won’t and refuse to induce you til 39 weeks which the doctors here think is so bizarre!
