My Progress!

Sunday 4th May 2008 - 39 weeks 1 day... 6 days left and counting.. bubs is giving me pains in places that are really irritating me! I just want it over and done with, i am excited but i am so tired and i want to just start being a mum already! I cant wait to have my body back and be able to sleep on my belly again comfortably! Well i haven't lost my mucus plug, nor had any bleeding or obvious signs its going to happen, i've had a large amount of pelvic pressure and my heartburn has slowed right down, but i just want some sign!!! Give me something to indicate when its all going to happen!!

Monday 5th May 2008 - 39 Weeks 2 days.. Today has been pretty odd, but still no progress.. I've had some really strange and annoying heartburn and my tummy is feeling full all the time but he's sitting low cuz i can feel his bottom right near my belly button! 5 More days to go..

Tuesday 6th May 2008 - 39 weeks 3 days... Today i think i've lost some of my mucus plug, i've had alot of yellowish discharge and its like blobs, but i'm not sure.. Been having period pains still and backache and i'm really really exhausted!! Been sleeping so much!! I'm so worried he's gunna be a very late one! Am i going to be lucky to be a mummy for mothers day?? 4 more days to go..

Wednesday 7th May 2008 - 39 Weeks 4 days... Well today i haven't had anything just the usual pains on and off, but no contractions!!! AHHH I'm so tired.. Looking forward to my midwife appointment tomorrow.. 3 days to go..

Thursday 8th May - 39 Weeks 5 days.. Last night i had a really bad case of Diahorrea and i actually thought i was in labour.. I was wrong.. I went to the Midwife today and she informed me that bubby is sitting high still and hasn't re-engaged.. No fair.. Looks like he's going to be another 10 days.. I could possibly be induced.. NO!!!! I've had lower back pain and pelvic pain, and i've been pretty tired, i didn't get much sleep last night - Here i am thinking that i could be a mummy in a day or two! I was so wrong!!! At least i can say this pregnancy hasn't been boring!

Friday 9th May - 39 weeks 6 days .. Nothing not even a niggle!! Just the typical backache and pelvic pain!! AWWW i want to meet him already!

Saturday 10th May - 40 Weeks exactly.. Well i'm at the 'supposed' last day of my pregnancy.. And i am trying my hardest to get his little (or maybe big) head into my pelvis.. I can feel it working but i'm not sure if its going to do anything!! I wanna be a mummy for mothers day!!!! I've attempted to take a tea called "Senna Tea" its a natural herbal laxative tea.. Lets hope it helps things along!

Sunday 11th May 2008 - 40 weeks 1 day.. Mothers day.. Not a mother.. i'm pretty down today, had some diarrea from the tea, trying castor oil today - lets keep fingers crossed it helps!!!
