🙋🏼‍♀️I am, 40+1 and no sign of this baby budging. My body aches all the time too so it's just getting harder and harder each day

Avatar

I’m ready!!! I’m hoping dilated enough they just take me Wednesday I’m 37 6 days as well but I’m scheduled for the 22nd c section

Avatar

Omgg!!! that would be so difficult like they already have their bundle of joy 😭😭😭 But honestly true the maternity time will go by QUICK- hopefully just being fully immersed in motherhood will make it magic for you!!

Yes fourth trimester will be it’s own but that is the start of our bodies healing and regulating hormones back to normal!! I look forward to it…

Its great your baby is wanting all that extra cooking time, at the end of the day so many blessings over hardships/ just the mental game and physical discomforts are so tough- especially if youre on leave already just kind of waiting to see…👀

38w2d and I'm so over it 😅 my doctor offered to induce me but I was too scared of intervention but I also don't wanna be pregnant anymore

Avatar

Its so nice to have that moment in certain sight😭 So happy for you that you have that EXACT count down lol. My midwife is fine with me going up to 42 weeks if baby is healthy 😭😭😭😭

Avatar

I’m 38w today, and my midwives made me feel good few weeks back saying that the second baby usually comes earlier than the first. Well, here I’m waiting that it happens this week cuz my first was born 38+6, just in case I went today and did acupuncture and asked to work on the points to induce. I can’t take all this aches, I want the full blown pain to come so I know I’ll go fast. But slow pains are the worse!

Avatar

Dont blame u😓 It’s probably gonna be that situation where as soon as u give up hope next thing u know ur in labor 😭 keep us all posted

Avatar

mine is the same way but he’s breech and they won’t deliver that way. So c section it is. However I feel like he might come early since I have had cramping

Avatar

Yes! Im 39 weeks and so uncomfortable, In pain, swollen feet, can’t sleep.

Avatar

In any other circumstance cramping is never welcomed but here will all are embracing it and hoping to lead to the finale 😎😂
Well long as theyre doin what keeps u and baby most safe🙏

Avatar

Do you sleep with a fort of pillows around u??🥲🥲 even with one i struggle to find comfort…

What helps your feet??

Avatar

I’m currently sleeping with my feet propped up in a chair 😩. I can’t really lay all the way down right now, because it’s too uncomfortable so the sofa has been my friend.

Avatar

I’m 37w3d & I’m ready to get this baby out 😭

Avatar

Oh my gosh🥹🥹 I feel for you!!!!! That is so difficult, like idk about u but cuddling w my s.o. has been so difficult bcoz of how far long I am and then adding not being able to be in the same bed! smh i’m glad there is an expiry tbh lol, I know it feels hella long but glad it wont be forever

sofas are so nice and sometimes w them being firmer better sleep 😤😭

Avatar

Avatar

Anxiety with the bump.

I’m 36 weeks pregnant and I’ve suddenly developed a massive anxiety around anyone standing behind me. My husband is annoying me so much because even though I’ve told him how it makes me feel, he’s continued doing stuff in our kitchen (that is tiny anyway) and sliding past me to grab things. I know the baby is safe even if I were to bump the bump a little but even the thought of it is still making extremely anxious. How do I cope with this feeling and is anyone else going through the same sort of thing?

Breathless and feeling like I need to be sitting constantly!

Has anyone else been feeling this way as they're getting closer to their due date?

I attempted to change our bedding this evening and had to call my husband for back up as I literally felt like my lungs were going to explode just trying to reach over to put the sheet on.

I'm huffing and puffing just getting my toddler into his pjs, and I was sat down! Like what is going on 😮‍💨🥲

Everything has been check ie bloods etc so I think it's just general pregnancy as I'm now 38 weeks. My bump feels like it weighs about 100lbs 😭

Friends wedding abroad

Hi all. I know this is FTM... But really need advice. I am currently pregnant with baby #2. Only 8 weeks. I didn't want to tell anyone yet, my partner and boss knows (needed for risk assessment reasons annoyingly). My friend is getting married in a remote part of Spain in ~3 months. I've already had a few minor complications, pain, bleeding, vanishing twin... I got preeclampsia last pregnancy and a terrible birth.
I am pretty sure I don't feel comfortable flying and then travelling out to a remote part of Spain during pregnancy. It will just be me and my toddler. I know it's overcautious but I just don't feel comfortable. I'm not even sure if I am going to be classified as high risk pregnancy or not.
How do I handle this? I need to tell her ASAP, but I didn't really want to tell anyone yet as doc told me miscarriage risk is a bit increased with vanishing twin. Any ideas?

When to prepare?

I’m 34w1d with my second baby. Today at my midwife appointment she said baby is 2/5 engaged, I’ve packed my hospital bags but unsure when to start building baby’s crib. Installing car seat ect. When is everyone else doing these things?

Anxious/depressed

My first pregnancy symptom was my anxiety out of nowhere. I feel like I'm a bundle of nerves and just so scared of everything. Is anyone else feeling similar? How are you managing? Are we contributing it to hormones?
