awww so jealous of all the new bubbas - a huge congratulations to you and your families!

I'm not due until 29 July but just want bubba to hurry up and arrive. My first was 5 weeks early, so now that I've passed that milestone it feels like it's dragging!

Not having any signs that this one will be coming out any time soon though

@Missbloggsy, big congrats, she is adorable! And I love her name, just gorgeous

@Kymmie, you are due a day after me! Do you know what you're having?

Another boy - I am still holding out the tiniest bit of hope that it might be a girl. I would love to have one of each.... but so long as it's healthy, plus I think our DS would love a little brother

How have you been going? Any signs of movement for you yet?

**~Marigold~** · 10-07-2012 21:03

Absolutely nothing yet! I get aches here and there and think, please let this be it.. but it's always nothing. I guess it's a good thing, she's not quite finished baking yet,

How are you sleeping? I'm fining it so hard getting comfy and the heartburn is still awful. I have a check up tomorrow, she was posteria last time- hope she's turned herself around!

**kymmie** · 10-07-2012 21:15

I'm the same. I've had cramps and back pain a few times now, but always turns out to be nothing

Sleep is getting worse. For a while it wasn't too bad (aside from the toilet breaks) but now I am really really struggling to get comfy and constantly get pins and needles in my hands.

I had a check up on Monday - so my next one is not until next Monday. Wasn't with my usual doc, so not much news this week. Hoping next week will be different.

Good luck with your little one. I hope she turns around for you.

I'm sure they will come when they're ready - I just wish they'd be ready sooner rather than later

Just wondering....
Is it normal for me to be feeling anxious and really worried? I've been really cruisey up until now.. it's like for the first time, it's REAL. It's only a matter of days away!! Freaking out. Haunted by the fact that something could go wrong. Just want to hear her cry, have her placed in my arms and then I'll be OK..
But I'm dreaming about giving birth almost every night.. and it's a restless sleep as it is. Feeling even a little depressed... don't know why, just a combo of nerves and apprehension I guess.
Don't get me wrong, so excited and pumped,so very ecstatic and inlove with this baby- it's like waiting for Christmas as a child, but it's really sinking in.. life as I know it will be forever changed in a couple of weeks! It's easy durng early pregancy (for me) to think, meh, I've got months and months to go.. but now.. so close! Sh!tting myself just a little, lol..

I'll post here again tomorrow and let you know if this little monkey has turned

I think it is normal... like any big decision in your life (are you buying the right house, making the right career move etc). It is a big change but it will so be worth it once you have her in your arms.

I've been quite emotional lately too - not quite to the extent you mentioned, but at my doc check up on Monday I found I was fighting back tears just talking about normal stuff - BP, next appointment etc.

I hope all goes well for you from here on out and that you're soon cuddling your gorgeous little girl.

Good old hormones for ya!

Yeah, I have my good and bad moments.. just stressing about every minor detail lately.. I'm a natural worry wort and being so close to the end has me over analysing and freaking out a little. I think finding out that she is posteria triggered it; and googling birth stories about the complications it can cause during labour.. trying to stay positive!

Hi everyone,
Just a quick note to let you know that we welcomed our princess, Maggie Rose on 9th July. She weighed in at 3090g and is absolutely perfect :-)
