Off to the midwife today so fingers crossed she gives me some good news! Baby feels like he has finally turned with her back to me so I'm hoping this is a good sign. I have been getting some pains at night too but like you say all gone by morni. Good luck to everyone will let you know what she says :) x

didnt get an early sweep at midwife yesterday :( had to be monitored at hospital for 90mins coz my blood pressure was up but no explanation for it so they sent me home, was secretly wishing they would induce me there n then lol.
next appointment meant to be in 2 weeks but due to high bp they wanna see me this friday if he's not here by then and if iv not had any pre eclampsia symptoms by then!!
hows bumps 2day? i feel like im gonna burst lol and he's still very active, im convinced he has bruised me internally lol x

due in 4 days too with my second little girl, i keep doing cleaning too, got so see midwife on Thurs if she still hasn't arrived coule of times I have had pains but they have worn off after a couple of hours it always seems to be at night it starts but has gone by morning

I was due 3 days ago and still waiting lol!
Iv had all the strong period pains,lower back ache really all the signs but still nothing lol!!I had to go to hospital 2 weeks ago due to high blood pressure an protein ++ in urine but like u didn't get induced early lol!
Iv tried all the methods of bringing on labour (sitting just now with cupbof raspberry leaf tea) and fed up with ppl telling me to keep walking at try this an try that lol I'm tiered and sore lol I don't want to walk haha
I just want to hold my LO now lol iv got midwife on Thursday for a sweep so fingers crossed!!lol
Good luck everyone xx

im suprised u have to wait so long for a sweep, must be different rules depending on where u live.
my feet are a bit swollen and midwife has told me to rest as much as possible with feet raised above heart. its a pain though coz i wanna walk around to try and get things going!!
it doent help that my friend had her baby yesterday on her due date, i feel like everyone is having their babies except me lol starting to think hes never gonna come out!! haha xx

I think it was because I was only 1 day over, and the head wasn't quite low enough. I know what you mean about it seems everyone are having their babies, lol. I even get mad at the telly lol :D Been putting my feet up, don;t think the hot weather helps mind you. Well +3 days today, so not doing too bad hehe ;) x

Well midwife didn;t offer a sweep, got to wait til Sunday :( aaarrrggghhh!! Lol, baby is still at 3/5 despite everything I have done, so resigned to the fact that its abviously far to compfy for LO. I've been taken 3 Rasberry Leaf Capsules a day with the hopes that it would help, lol. Hopefully we get our babies soon :D I don't even feel scared any more just looking forward to having LO in my arms. Fingers crossed for everyone this week x

Sorry about bad spelling BTW, typing this on my phone!!

I'm seeing the miswife on Monday, but she didn't talk about a sweep to me at our last appointment :( I hope she offers me one. We've also had everything ready for ages, I'm also having a surprise, so don;t know if its pink or blue!! Last night I was up every hour. I keep checking to see if I've had "the show", but alas still waiting. I know that most people are never on time, and that I'll no doubt be cursing when the time comes, but like the both of you I just want to be able to hold LO in my arm, instead of cuddling my stomach. :D Good luck to both of you, hopefully the midwife will give me some good news on Monday lol :D x

i know how you both feel, i have 6 days to go (due 12th) and im sooo fed up i have constant back ache at the moment and bad pains in my groin especially at night which makes me think something is going to happen but it never does. i just want to hold my little boy now cant wait much longer and to top it off im not seeing my midwife until next wednesday :-( im hoping he dicides to make his entrance before then though lol good luck to both of you x
