Are we there yet?

[forshelby]

Please.... tell me I'm not going to go to almost 42wks again and this might go on for another month!!!!

Lower backpain.
Sharp stabbing pain in my cervix
Aching pelvis
Walking like a cowboy
Irritability
needing to pee constantly
TMI loose bowels
Aching upper thighs
Period like pain
Strong and long BH between 2 and 5 mins apart nightly but definitely not the real deal.... just annoying!

Please tell me I am close. These pains didn't kick in until about 39+5 wiith DS. I've been sore for weeks!

ok whinge over.

[Mummy&Daddy2Be]

big hun. i hope bub comes soon for you!

[Arimeh]

Anything is possible I went to 42 weeks with dd1 (failed vbac attempt cos I just didn't go into labour and she was starting to suffer) however - I then had my vba2c when I went into spontaneous labour at 12 days over and then my vba2c2 at 11 days over.

So you might not go as far over I had 3 weeks of prelabour with dd3 though LOL

[forshelby]

Nooo!!! lol. you were supposed to humour me and lie!

This will be a VBAC so I'm keen for this to be over

[RainbowRiver]

Oh that sounds just like my last pregnancy! DD3 came at 39+3

[Arimeh]

Nooo!!! lol. you were supposed to humour me and lie!

This will be a VBAC so I'm keen for this to be over

Sorry!! I can't lie if I don't know the answer

Hopefully it will be your baby's birthday sooner rather than later. Is that better? LOL

Best of luck with your vbac

[forshelby]

better..... but you need to practice lol.

[tellytubby]

How are you feeling? I just noticed this thread!

[Mildez]

Same. Can't wait to read about your VBAC. Hope bub arrives soon like in a few days not weeks xx

[rustygirl]

Having the same symptoms forshelby......i feel as though bubbie isn't too far off.

[forshelby]

Not much has changed... except I'm getting really overly emotional. Especially after hospital appointments. I'm really not a fan of the OBs and the way they're treating me like I'm broken or something because things went so horribly wrong last time. Don't worry though, I make sure every time to point out that the cause of my distress and need to be in ICU and sedated was due to the mistakes made by my medical team.... not through any defect I might have.

Needless to say they don't enjoy that lol.

So naturally I'm feeling a bit edgy but just trying to keep my eyes on the prize. I've gone from nesting to resting so that's a good thing. My BH are coming about 4 minutes apart tonight and aren't really going away so I have hope the full moon and the crazy weather outside might have stirred something up! I also ate half a pineapple and bounced on my gym ball like a mofo today

fingers crossed! Every day I wake up pregnant I'm slightly relieved, and slightly disappointed. I think my v-jay-jay is relieved anyway lol.

[Arimeh]

BH's are good - excellent practice!

Are you eating a lot of dates? My old midwife has a theory that eating a handful of dates a day can help you from going overdue. I dunno how but once I reach 30 weeks I'm going to give it a go. Anything is worth it huh.

Are you drinking RLT or taking tablets? Or inserting EPO? Those were my other standard routine things LOL

[HotI]

Wow, you are so close fs!! Wishing you an awesome birth where you are supported and your bubba comes gently out your vayjayjay.

[forshelby]

no dates. hate em. taking raspberry leaf tablets tho.

thanks hoti feeling psyched tonight! still regular but not hurty just pressure and crampiness. seems promising

[Cassius2]

sending you beautiful birthing vibes FS xx

[forshelby]

I'm still very pg. Spent a restless night trying to sleep through back pain and cramps. Trying to remind myself that my body is doing some very good work and its not for nothing. Man I'm sore though. And cranky and emotional. I wish there was someone here who could help me with DS so I can rest. I wanted to tell DP not to go to work today but felt guilty.

Waaahhhhhh!!!! Get out of me, fat baby!

[rustygirl]

Oh dammit!!!

That crampy/achey feeling is the pits!! Thinking of you and hope you get some rest today. Come on baby!!!

[tellytubby]

Oh matie, that blows . Can your sister take DS for you, so you can relax?

In the meantime, I'm loving your latest belly photo - far out that's a big bump! You really do look beautiful!
