We've been avoiding jumping to the 3rd Trimester thread - the time is near so lets take a plunge...
We can still keep on the 2nd Trimester thread too - but there's 102 pages now!
I've 5 weeks to go - come and countdown with me... I've not been this far before!!!!

Justine - Do you hope you will be early a little?? I have to confess that I do now - 36 weeks next week so that would be good, or even the week after. I'd like to have all my boys AROUND me on Christmas Day.... And if it would only snow too - I'd be in heaven
You could drive yourself nuts thinking what was different - maybe it was just YOUR time. DH thinks we're on a roll now, but you know, I don't know if I could cope with the emotional stress again - that's even assuming it wasn't just a one off miracle (which realistically, after 9 years, probably was) I too did acupuncture - but stopped about 10 months before I got pregnant...
Kareen - You should be here as you're in the last phase............ LOL. Come and make us laugh and talk about food. I've just told Steve I want Chinese... LOL
Take care both

I'm like you with Sophie - I want to have a special Christmas for Sam. He'll understand things that bit more this year - I'm already hyping him up about Santa !!
As for snow - I very much doubt it's going to happen - it's been so wet here - a few years ago this would have been snow - even at my mum's in the North it's been milder than usual with frost but that's about it.
This babe was 3/5 engaged at 30 weeks! but I think them moved back up again. I'm just off the phone to the midwife about the BH's and she says I've got to slow down a bit and that given my history, just keep an eye on things - but because I'm not getting them at night when in a more ly down position it probably is just BH. ANYWAY, you al know how superstitious I am about getting baby stuff in, but I was spooked enough to go with Steve and buy a couple of sleepsuits and vests. Steve is going up to the loft this afternoon to find stuff and my bag is nearly packed. OMG - I hope I'm not tempting fate...
At 33 weeks, Sam was 4lb 7oz, so that;s not too small if you were to fo now - don't worry, things will be fine...we're nearly there!!!
Take care

Have replied to your post on the other thread to... Hope things are ok - just make sure you are taking things easy.
Good for you getting your bag ready too - all we need now is to forget them on the way... LOL
As for me, started the raspberry leaf tea today, so we'll see if that does anything. Never, ever thought I'd get to 36 weeks, which I am on Wednesday. Satrting to feel very, very big and all out front. I don't know if he's still 3/5 engaged - apparently they can go up and down - although I'm sure he's still head down.
Like you I've felt more pressure today - and feeling a bit 'sensitive' down below - maybe it's just wishful thinking! My sister is coming tomorrow so it'd be handy for us with Sam, if something happened towards the end of her visit I think she hopes it will too...
Take care

Almost at 34 weeks for you - that's great news - before you know it you'll be worrying that you'll go late
Hope you are ok today.
I got my hair cut and so far so good - it just makes my roots look even orse though...
Got my last antenatal class tomorrow and my 36 week check, so hopefully all will go well....

How goes it all today??? I'm so P%£*7d off - the stretch marks are really beginning to appear now - I think it's because I'm still so high and all to the flaming front. Will they go away? I never had them before
How you feeling? Lighter with the hair cut
