Well,third tri is where the party's at. :wink:

Personally,with 12 days to go (probably less) I'm feeling a mixture of really excited,maternal (!),bored,and terrified.

One half of me is thinking "Right,baby,out,now!" while the other half is too used to being pregnant- compared to actually having a baby to look after, pregnancy seems a nice safe option :) :)

I don't know what on earth to do with babies :( And I can't imagine having one...but I will....IN LESS THAN TWO WEEKS.
On the other hand I know my natural instincts will kick in, and I'll love it, and I can't wait to meet my baby :D

So what fun and colourful cocktail of emotions are you all having at the minute? :D
 
Awwww lucky you..not long now...I wish mine would come sooner!

In answer to your question..Im feeling shit!.. thanx for asking! :?

Good luck to you! :D
 
I'm feeling really rubbish at the moment. I seem to be full of emotions. I lay in bed last night sobbing my heart out for no reason at all :roll: The day before, I lost the plot with the local takeaway for getting my order wrong and told them I would never order anything from them again (good job I'm moving next week! :wink: ) I cant sleep very well, have cramp in my legs and am generally just fed up....Jeez I'm such a moan :(
 
I'm feeling very impatient - I'm now 2 days overdue and feeling really worked up about everything.

People keep texting and emailing etc which is lovely 'cos they care but is also frustrating as I don't have any more insight into when this baby will arrive than they do and will let them know if/when there's any news. Also, I am feeling very worried - I know I've got 2 weeks yet, but I am terrified of being induced as it'll have to be in hospital and for medical reasons, I will be coerced into having lots of intervention - which is exactly what I don't want.

About being a mum - I am very excited and just want to give the baby a big cuddle! Pretty much everything is done, so I just want the baby to arrive!

I'm finding it more and more difficult to get comfy at night so sleeping is hard!!! The baby seems to get hiccups all the time which is cute and no matter which side I lay on she either sticks her feet under me or her arms and I get scared about crushing her but she is very very active these days so I am not worried.
The slightest thing makes me wanna cry but I actually feel quite happy at the mo. The time is still zooming by so that is also a bonus.
I'm not worried about anything at the moment and I have a feeling that on Tuesday when I go for my scan they are going to tell me that everything is perfectly normal so all in all I'm feeling good. :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

OH has been away for a few days so I've had a break from him and now I miss him and he seems to have realised how bad and down I was feeling because he just rang and said he has bought me loads of pressies! :cheer:
 
Good question Zebra. :clap:

I'm feeling very happy and excited one minute then scared and tearful the next. With only 2 days to go till C-Day I do at least now have a definite idea of when baby will arrive. :D However, I know having a CS isn't all fun and there will obviously be pain and a time for healing and rest afterwards. :?

I'm looking forward to getting the baby home, and just being a little family unit with my OH and DS, once all the visitors have gone. That's what I'm focussing on right now.

You seem pretty certain your LO will arrive early. I hope this works out for you.

:hug:

It's because I'm probably going to end up getting sectioned too, I'll be finding out tomorrow :?
 
After just posting tangerinedream's baby arrival after speaking to her online for the past 6 months or so, I'm all of a sudden very scared x
 
I feel the same about feeling that pregnancy is the safe option, like the calm before the 18 year storm! I wish 2nd tri was longer because I've got too much to get done before the baby comes and I'm getting too big to have the energy to do much!

The baby keeps attacking my rib and my ankles feel like tree trunks, but I still am very happy about everything and can't really believe that it's all happening too. :D
 
I'm feeling quite good just now. I get quite tired, and at the moment my ankles are really swollen which just looks really weird! I get quite sore if I'm walking for too long, and can't really get comfy in bed at night and when I do get comfy I need to get up and pee! I'm still working (stop on 10th August) so looking forward to stopping. My bump is enormous and my boobs are sooo heavy.

Despite all that I'm still enjoying being pregnant and I suppose I'm trying to savour it all because it may be the only time I experience it. I really love my bump and will miss it so much, but also can't wait to meet baby. I'm looking forward to the birth, but maybe a little more anxious now that I've been told Bambi is currently 5lb 10oz with a big head! xx

Ahh :think: that explains it then. :) I hope everything goes well tomorrow. Good luck.
