:( wishful thinking

Well all week I've tried pineapple, dtd, nipple stimulation, going up and downstairs sideways, bouncing on my ball, raspberry leaf tea since 35 weeks, spicy food, & walking but despite being fully engaged and feeling like I could burst my baby just cannot be persuaded to come out. I guess he'll come when he wants and no amount of traditional remedies will force him, feel a bit let down & disappointed, I want him now I'm so fed up and uncomfortable

 

[rachcraig]

Aww I totally feel your pain its my due date today and I was convinced she would be here by now. Like u, I've tried everything but don't think they'll come until their ready. Have u had any signs or anything? I have periody type cramp occassionally but that's it. Xx

 

[Bunnykins]

I've had some period pains and thought I was having contractions last night but they went away, I don't feel like I can cope with another week like this!!!
I hope things kick off for you soon hon and you don't go anymore overdue!! I'll keep my fx for you!! I think they get too comfy sometimes!!

 

[rachcraig]

Aww thanks, hope it happens soon for u too! It's so frustrating waiting isn't it, I just feel like a big fat whale! Xx

 

[Bunnykins]

I know I just feel like I'm one big baby growbag!!!

 

[i.love]

but you are not even due yet... I wouldn't hurry up with this until after 40 weeks xx

 

[Bunnykins]

I know I still have a week to go its just so uncomfy, his head is so far down I can't walk or sleep, I know shouldn't rush him and let him cook for as long as possible but he feels very ready, I just can't take another week of the pain and insomnia I feel like I'll go crazy, hormones are going wild and I'm crying over everything as it is! sorry I probably sound like a right selfish moaner!!!!!!

Bunnykins poor you Try to be patient though! You might miss all this later! And I wouldn't hope that sleeping will become much easier when the LO arrives

 

[Bunnykins]

Oh said to me today that all the pain and insomnia is probably my bodies way of hardening me up for the labour and afterwards with a sleepless newborn!
Had a better day today he dragged me out to a local nature reserve for some fresh air, was agony to walk but being out in the sun and wildlife did cheer me up and put me in a much more positive state of mind, plus I used some hypnobirthing techniques to try and control the pain while walking so that felt like good practice! We then went for lunch and I'm off to my Mums for Sunday tea in a bit so I haven't had to cook at all today
Littlemiss the sideways stairs is a sight to behold I look like a right wolly but id read somewhere it helps, imho it just made it more dangerous so I've given up on that lol
