If only they could tell the tale - maybe we would understand their reluctance to come out here!!
I must admit I love being pregnant and have enjoyed every minute of it, but now my impatient side is coming out and I am just desperate to meet Little One.
Take care of yourself and I hope that you get some "twinges" soon.
Thinking of you Esther - hope it all happens soon for you

Little P - TALK ABOUT NESTING ......i think if my house had a mouth to say enough thank you, it would have done so, I cant stop, and its the only thing i dont need motivation to do.

My feet are so swollen they dont fit in any of my shoes.
I went to see the midwife today and she told me the usual - put your feet up.
CC- How are feeling, has the nesting kicked in yet on your side.

We must be sharing the swollen feet and ankles problem - my Midwife said exactly the same thing - as much rest as possible!!
Just doing the final tweaks here and there and talking to Little One about the need for her or him to show herself/himself. Really can't wait to meet this little person who has been part of my life for the last 37 weeks - please don't let me go over my due date!!!
Iam happy you are back and CONGRATULATIONS and a very big welcome to you and your precious daughter. How are you feeling, take care and get well soon.

The waiting game........... how are you coping. As for home remedies for inducing labour iam not doing anything too artificial, iam taking regular walks though and the DH intervention.

As for Myself nothing has happened yet and iam still waiting........and .......... waiting........and... w............

I have been on the Raspberry Leaf Tea for a while, now upped the ante and drinking it by the bucket-load. I'm definitely ready now and with every twinge I keep thinking "Is this it? ...."
Braxton Hicks Contractions have become very regular and strong recently - hoping that that might just mean something ....
How are you doing? I know you're ready as well - do you find that you have loads more energy at the moment?
Yes.....loads of energy and always hungry but no appetite at all.
My bellie has really dropped big time but no braxton hicks at all, only a little back tightening at times. I wonder if anything is going to happen soon. With the way my baby is so contented I feel like I may go overdue.
I just feel like its late now for me to start on rasberry leaf tea, I wish I had.
Its sounds like so much is happening for you. Those worsening Braxton Hicks are very promising.
I never had any Braxton Hicks at all throughout my pregnancy. I wonder why.
Take Care

Sweetie - go get some Raspberry Leaf Tea (it has other benefits as well) and just drink, drink, drink. Also try pineapple - apparently very good!! Mind you I'm eating one a day at the moment!!! Don't think they'll ever hold the same appeal again!!
Remember not everyone gets those Braxton Hicks practice moments, they just go straight in .... I'm sure things will get a move on for you very soon.
Maybe by the end of this week you and I will be sharing Announcement News
Hi Esther - nesting has kicked in in my house but in a rather different way - I had a bird mite nest in loft that descended into house when birds had flown and I'm in the midst of trying to disinfect and clear them all - yuk. So yes, my house is getting a good clean but I don;t think its the nesting instinct! By the time mine kicks in there'll be nothing to clean! Sounds like you and Lil P are doiing all you can to will your births on - it'll happen soon - just think it'll suddenly be all over and you'll be amazed how quick it went in the end. Hope so anyway.
Best of luck,
Cherylxxx
