Words of encouragement
Guys I guess I just need some words of encouragement right now. I’m really going through it at the moment. I’m 39+3 and I feel like I’m in the first trimester again. I’m so over this honestly I just want this baby out 😭 I’m trying to remain positive and patient but it’s really getting to me. I’ve started vomiting again, I open my bowels every time I eat, I have insomnia (hence why I’m awake at this time ) every night, every time I walk I feel like she’s about to burst through my pelvis. I’m so tired 😭

I know it's easier to say this but it's nearly over, just hang in there a little longer and it'll be worth it x
Your not alone, I can relate to this, I'm only 37 weeks 😫
I feel so irritable! Feels like an eternity but baby will come soon enough for you, it's not long much longer left!
Im 39+2 and completely empathise with everything you've said!! I've also now got some kind of a virus too and feel terrible! We will get there! X
My nausea is horrendous again 😩 I'm still on my anti sickness medication too. I'm so uncomfortable 😣

Removing pram bassinet
Has anyone moved their baby from the bassinet to the pram seat yet? I know it says 6 months but depending on head/ neck strength. Wondering how early this can be done. My LO has bad reflux and hates the bassinet so being able to move from the bassinet to the seat would probably help her a lot!

C-section vs vaginal birth
I’m expecting my first baby in around 6 weeks, I’ve always planned on a natural birth, I’m low risk, my birth plan states no intervention unless medically necessary for most issues… but now I’m getting closer I’m considering a planned C-section because I’m seeing that there are risks involved both ways, but with a C section there isn’t potentially 48+ hours of excruciating pain, and there isn’t the risk of tearing… I know recovery isn’t easy, but 1 in 4 births end in emergency c section these days anyway and I’d rather it be planned than rushed… but then am I just being a chicken? I don’t know what to do.

Water breaking
This might sound silly but does anyone know what it feels like to have your waters broken ? Does it feel like you’ve peed your self or a gush of water ? I’m just wanting to know what to expect when it does happen 😅 or does it feel different for everyone?
