DUE DATE!!!!!

WOW 40 weeks... that sounds so weird seeing with my DD I had a 4 week old baby by this point (she came at 36 weeks).



Still no signs, he is wiggling away this morning loads - is that a sign? or is he just reminding me he is happy and snug in there and is not coming out any time soon????



I have a sweep booked for Monday 4th, then induction/c-sec on the 11th so at least it is only 12/13 days at the MOST until we meet out little boy... weird!



I hope you are all ok?



hopefully we'll be getting more and more BA coming as we move into July!!!!!

    I hope you're not kept waiting too long!



    I was wondering about what the movements are like when it comes near the end I just assume for some reason they wouldn't move much at the end - but logically I don't know why I think they would stop moving!

    well the movements have definitely slowed down and are way less vigorous, this baby has been really 'kicky' since about 20 weeks. I have never had painful kicks throughout this whole pregnancy though, none of those upwards rib cage ones at all which I know is very lucky!



    The past week mainly it has slowed down a lot, but I am still feeling movements, just more pokes rather than kicks, it is like he is stretching his legs in there!



    I imagine everyone is different though with nearing the end. x

    still no signs...



    I have tried everything too (including naughty business which is quite a challenge!!!!) except curry as I have such a sweet tooth the thought of curry makes me feel sick.



    Nothing working.... image I want to meet my little man
