38 weeks and counting!!
Hi everyone. So many people have been kind enough to ask how I am doing, got my own thread aswell, wow! so I thought I'd do a quick update.
Still pregnant and very uncomfortable. This probably doesn't come as any great to surprise to any of you with children but as I never got further than 34 weeks last time, this is all horribly new to me! I am a weird shape so I am quickly running out of clothes, all up front and sticky-outy although from the back I still look just a little rounder than usual and not at all pregnant. I am down to one pair of trousers, a dress that now resembles a sack, and a few tops. Still, it will not be for long.
I would like to be possibly the first to post whilst in labour, but I can't believe that hasn't happened, anyone know for sure? But I will let you all know when something happens.
Thank you all for your kind concern and sweet messages of support, you all have far more pressing things to worry about than me and it means a great deal that you are all there. You are all amazing.

Thats a good idea about posting while in labour,you'd have us all on tenterhook, i went in labour at 5am and was fine till 4pm when the pain kicked in.would have been plenty of time to do a post.lol.
WOW only a couple of weeks to go - hope you don't go over due!!! x
I'm delighted that you've got this far with this pregnancy it means that the birth and the days following it should be a different less frightening experience These last couple of weeks do drag though and its so hard with another child too but like you said it's not for long and before you know it you'll have your daughter in your arms!!
I think that's a fantastic idea if you're able to post on here whilst in labour i don't think it's been done on this site before and would be so exciting!! I was only thinking the other day how i wished i was on here when pregnant with amber as the day i was in labour i was at home for most of it on my own so it would have been fab to have everyones support!
Good luck and of course keep us posted x x
Glad things are going well for you, try and not go in to labour while i am away, would be fab to chat to you whilst it was happening!
Take care xx
it would be fab to hear from you in labour, (although, obviously not expected). id have loved to have posted, but would have had nobody to chat to as i went in in the middle of the night both times.
how exciting!! looking forward to hearing about it all, and we'll all be thinking of you.
take care, and try and relax as much as you can this last little while
kas xx
Hope you doing well tho.
take care and keep us posted!

Glad to hear that you are OK!!
I have no idea what labour is like as I never got that far. Got my fingers crossed for you though!!

One of my cats won't leave me alone - maybe he knows something... or is just stupid!
Try not to get stressed out about it, she will come when she's ready. Have you spoken to your midwife about the possibility of being induced? Or maybe go down the route of a hot curry or raspberry tea?
I hope you and your family are all ok.
Take care, Zoe xx
Maybe your cat can sense something.An like Zoe says try something to help encourage labour,my m/w said if sex got them in then it will get them out.lol
Hope your resting well,take care and fingers crossed for ya!

You may be on here tomorrow saying its all started!!!!
Good luck.
By the way, have you chosen a name for her?
But unfortunately nothing helped start labour, i tried walking, cleaning, scrubbing the floors, sex, pineapple, hot curry and relaxing baths.
All i can say is she will come when she is ready and all the waiting will be worth it. I wish you the best of luck anyway. xxx
Like Karen says she will come only when she is good and ready.
