Hi all, I'm 38 weeks with my second & this waiting for bub to come is driving me mad!Brick wall
I don't remember being like this with my first probably because I just assumed you wait till at least 40 weeks before you start getting anxious. My first was 39 & 3 days, so I keep thinking I'll be earlier with this one! I've also had heaps of BH & bub has dropped which makes walking feel really heavy. Last night I had a cleaning frenzy in the kitchen too- which got my hopes up, but no contractions etc yet. Anyway, just wanted to know if any other mums to be feel like this too & any tips to take your mind off the very much wanted birth!

Yep these last few weeks are driving me mad too - I think I set myself up for disappointment though as I keep telling myself it will happen early this time, when I still have 3 weeks till I am due. I should trick myself into thinking I have 5 weeks to go then I might be surprised when baby arrives on my EDD LOL LOL

I have no tips for keeping busy though as I am in the same boat!

Good luck hope it happens sooner rather than later for you BigGrin

Might not be too far away! My FIL said his ex-wife (my DH's mum) would have a cleaning frenzy then exactly 2 weeks later on the dot she would give birth! She had three kids and every single time it was the same. She would even mark the nesting day on the calendar so they could all see when she would go into labour LOL. Good luck I hope bub comes soon!

Have been bouncing on a fit ball and trying to drink raspberry leaf tea, but I tend to feel sick and vomit that up!!! Feel so tight and heavy now - just sitting is a chore! My skin and muscles feel like they are being grabbed from top and the bottom and being stretched. Scared 39.3 weeks today- that's what DS was...
