7 days until im due.

[flexilexi394]

oh my its gone so quick!

cant believe that i am actually due in 7 days! not that that means much.

I think ive done quite well not to symptom spot at every twinge, as its easy to do, i just think that if i feel different its my body getting ready to do something. ie my massive amount of plug loss last week, nothing has come of that yet, but all in good time.

Just gonna take my dog for a walk and enjoy my last week of non parenthood! x

 

[PinkPunch]

Your last week of peace and quiet! Lol. I'm really excited for you, 7 days will fly in. Can't wait to hear the good news

 

[Mrs_B]

Wow, that has come round fast. Bubba will be here before you know it. Enjoy your walk.

 

[mikid]

That's it, just got to try and ignore everyone asking 'any news/signs' leave your body to do it's thing and enjoy your last few days of being a couple not a mommy!

It's definitely hard though, once you reach your due date its like, LO should be here now, come on get a move on!!

I'd say spend some time doing things for you, and you and OH go out for dinner/cinema/anything you fancy, and just enjoy some last quiet time... that's what i've enjoyed the most the last week or two and it's definitely helped distract me from just thinking 'come on baby, get a wriggle on'!!

 

[emma_85]

Ooh not long now then, you're just ahead of me - i'm due in 9 days! Although we can never predict when babs will come! We could be 2 weeks late!

 

[Emmamb]

It's exciting isn't it,I was just thinkin earlier that by weds il b in single figures!
Ur doin really well not to symptom spot tho,I'm rubbish lol reminds me of my 2ww wen I was ttc lol xx

 

[x.Lilly.x]

ooo exciting hun!
Same emma, these last 2 weeks really remind me of the 2ww in ttc, sumptoms spotting at every twinge or niggle! lol

 

[flexilexi394]

lol i have never TTC before (this baby was a pleasant surprise lol) so guess i kinda know wat ya mean with all the waiting and the symptom spotting! i just took my doggy for a nice walk. gonna do that twice a day from now until labour day lol if it helps! x

 

[x.Lilly.x]

Do you do nipple stimulation hun? I swear by it to cause bh! its insne how much it works when i do it. but i havent done it recently cus it makes me so emotional when i do it.

 

[flexilexi394]

no not tried it! what do i actually do? like rub them? ive not really had BH's in my pregnancy! teach me lol x

 

[x.Lilly.x]

No me neither Iv hardly had any braxton hix at all, I had none at all with my son, but wen I do nipple stim i get really strong ones it scares me! lol
I rub the palm of my hand over my nipple and areola area (with the palm of my hand in a kind of cupped position so its shapes around my nipple and areola if u no wa i mean lol) for around 15 mins then swap to the next boob and do it a few times till i get bored.
norm do it while bouncing on the ball, and I get really painful bh with a lot of back ache. be sure to stop rubbing ur nipple while ur getting a bh though as it makes them so painful if u keep doing it while ur having a bh.
also pressure a pressure point in the webbing of ur thumb for 3 mins then doing the other hand is suppose to indice labour x

 

[LilyMac]

Lexi! There's no way you're due in 7 days surely you've still got weeks left!! That has gone so quick I can't believe it!
Am really excited now, can't wait for your bubba to get here!

Wish I'd known about the pressure points, I wouldve done that constantly lol x

 

[flexilexi394]

Lol mad isnt it Stacey! Can't believe I have 6days and counting haha! Hope you and little Aidan are getting on ok! Xxx

 

[LilyMac]

Its completely shocking chick! Really can't believe how quick its gone. Are you really excited/nervous? I absolutely loved giving birth, I never believed women when they said its amazing and life changing but it really is!
Yeah were brilliant thanks, I love being a mommy and I can't stop staring at him he's so lush! Still can't believe we get to keep him though lol x x

 

[flexilexi394]

lol thats lovely and makes me feel a lot better that you liked giving birth, im sure its unbelivable. i am actually excited! i cant wait! a little nervous i guess, but more looking forward to the whole experience. cant wait to look after my baby! and use my moses basket and my pushchair thats the kid in me x

 

[LilyMac]

Lol I spent the last two months putting Moses basket n push chair together then taking it all apart n starting again! I'm a big kid too! Lol I can't wait till he's older n gets proper toys

I was terrified of giving birth, really didn't wanna do it but now I'd do it everyday if I could! Though I'd demand pain relief immediately n not wait 28hours lol

X

 

[PinkPunch]

It's the best experience in the whole world so it can't be that bad!

 

[flexilexi394]

I'm very much looking forward to being a mummy and feeling the whole experience of labour. So cool. X

 

[lealea85]

Fingers crossed baby comes really soon. You have been very bubbly throughout ur pregnancy, like a many others. I applaud you

 

[flexilexi394]

lol thanks lealea, dont really think ive had a lot to complain about! ive been lucky enough to have an easy and low risk pregnancy which in turn means i will hopefully get the birth i want, you guys by far have had a terrible time of it! i hope you are able to have the birth you want x
