Last midwife appointment before due date!

[AugustMum]

Had my last appointment today before my due date...eeee getting excited now!

Baby is now 3/5ths engaged. I was hoping she would be a little further down, but Ive heard the baby sometimes doesnt fully engage until labour so Im not going to worry myself over it.

Im also quite pleased as Ive heard some midwives can make you wait before giving you a sweep, and usually my appointment would have been at 39+6 weeks but my midwife said I can have my appointment on the thursday so Ill be 40+1 so I can have my sweep then and then the week after if she's still refusing to budge lol.

We're both hoping she comes before then though So I guess now the waiting game begins!

the waiting game is the boring bit. but labour happeneds so suddenly you have to be half prepared and half trying to make the most of relaxing, sleeping before new baby takes up your time! it's so exciting when you get some signs though hope things move fast for you!! xxx
