    The way I feel, you guys will beat me to the punch anyway! Last night I got to the point of exhaustion and bawled on DH's shoulder because I desperately needed a Zantac and couldn't remember if I'd taken one or if I'd just thought about it.

    Come on babies, be kind to your mummas and come out now!

    Crying is good! Release the hormones! That's what triggered it for DS I think! Can you get a teary movie tonight, both of you? I recommend The Notebook, A Walk to Remember, something like that. Have a big teary and get cuddly with DH

    I felt just like that with Miss A. DS and Miss S came at 37w4d and 37w5d, so I assumed Miss A was going to come around the same time. Turns out she wanted to relax in my womb for more than a week extra. I was trying everything under the sun to encourage her to arrive. DS even started saying "going for a drive on the bumpy road?" every time we got in the car, lol! I was even feeling inside every time I went to the toilet to see if my cervix felt different and to see if mucous plug was coming away. Not sure why I thought I would have a massive plug come away this time considering I never even saw a mucous plug with DS or DD1... Then there was the two days of prelabour that got me all excited just like you, then fizzled out to nothing. I started feeling cheated. I felt like every extra day that she stayed inside was a day that I was missing out on having her in my arms. Silly I know, because it was special having her inside as well, but I totally understand how your feeling.

    I even tried to trick myself into thinking that she would come on a date way in the future (like maybe her actual EDD, lol) so that I would stop thinking she might be coming "today" and feeling the disappointment when she didn't. Just so you know, that trick didn't actually help me haha.

    I guess most of my time was spend chasing after DS and DD1 and trying to enjoy the time I had with them without a new baby. Unfortunately I had such a large belly and nasty SPD that I found it hard to really enjoy that time *sigh*. I look back on that week and a bit now and find it amusing that I wanted her out so amazingly desperately, because in the scheme of things it's such a teeny tiny percent of her life. BUT at the time it was sooooooo important and definitely a valid feeling hehe.

    PS. I guess I don't win the prize for guessing her birthday Oh, and just so you know, I keep thinking of her as "Abby" at the moment because of her bedroom decor!
