@Katy glad I’m not the only one! Feels like something has changed over the past two weeks. Swollen hands here too x
Yessss! I’m 35+2 and honestly wouldn’t be shocked if they popped out tomorrow 😂 I’m 4/5 engaged so also not fully engaged but sometimes I swear when they move their head is going to fall out 🫠 All normal apparently! Midwife said it’s because there’s more room and your body knows what it’s doing so everything feels ready earlier than #1. My first was right on time but I honestly am so worried about our how early this one feels like they’ll come! Praying I get some time off work - I don’t finish til 23rd Jan and I’m due 9th Feb 🫣
@Caley omg I can’t imagine what it feels like 4/5 engaged 🥴 I’m apparently not engaged at all and I feel dreadful 🤣😭 that makes sense, it’s obviously different in there after having had a baby before! If you were right on time before I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re early this time! I’m finishing 17th but section booked for 31st if she doesn’t fall out before 🤣🤣🤣 xx
Tbh when she said I was that engaged I was shock cos this baby feels like their head is in my ribs and they’re doing star jumps the way my tummy moves 😅 but scarily they’re obviously doing that but head down 🫣 Omg you’re scheduled in for 31st Jan?? How exciting! I will honestly go insane if this baby comes January. Dunno why. I’d be absolutely fine with Feb 1st 😂 Keeping my legs crossed 🤣
I feel the same. The other night I felt so sick the only way I could describe it to my husband was how I felt as my contractions started last time. Saw the midwife today and she said his head is in my pelvis which is why he feels like he's going to fall out. I just hope he stays put for atleast 3 more weeks
This is me. I'm 33w today and feel like baby is so low. I've got most of the same symptoms I had before my last labour and the swollen hands/feet. Hoping babe stays in at least a few more weeks. X
