So many posts! So little time!
I'll just comment on the last two "big things" as if I try to cover everything I'll forget someone/something...
GregorysGirl, I really hope they will agree to give you a sweep! I can't really see why they wouldn't.. you're obviously suffering a lot now, and I can't see that it's necessary for you to suffer any longer! Baby has been full term for 2 weeks already, and could technically be born any day now anyway!
Verity - that's all quite positive news
Sounds like we might get a labour watch very soon!!
Good luck, and keep us updated
As for me my cold is a lot better, but I still sleep half the day... going to catch up on all the dishes that have piled up while I've been sick..
I've had a lot of quite strong BH the past couple of days, up to 4-5 an hour, mostly in the evenings. Today I'm having some period type pain, kind of semi constant, and I'm pretty sure my mucus plug is starting to come away little by little, (been checking my CM for the past two weeks, and there are some stringy lumpy yellowy things there now that wasn't there before!) Soooo I'm thinking Pip might come before the end of this week...! Due on Saturday... so I guess it's not completely unlikely that he'll be here quite soon!
BTW, anyone else who feel they almost can't get up to pee or have a drink of water etc at night because their OH will think something's up? Almost every time I get up, or even just struggle a bit extra to turn around my husband wakes up and asks if anything is happening.
Last night I woke up and found him lying under the covers online on his phone, because he couldn't sleep because he was nervous thinking about that I might go into labour! I tried to tell him that if Pip would indeed come he should try to get as much sleep as he could! Poor guy, I think he's more worried about the labour than I am!!
