Overdue
I am now 40 weeks and 3 days pregnant.
Nothing can describe how I am feeling right now. I am so over being pregnant, I am so anxious, and I can’t wait to hold my baby. I have tried every old wives tale to try induce labour from walking everywhere to drinking raspberry leaf tea, all in the hopes of getting that first contraction. The Braxton Hicks have been getting worse though so it has to be soon.
Woah, holy shit, the baby’s really dropped! It’ll be soon, you’re carrying really low now.

Apparently sex is supposed to help.

Oh my gosh! You’re gonna pop any time soon. lol. You’re looking forward to contractions now but once they start, they won’t be that much fun. After you see the baby though, it should all be worth it

Good Luck, All this waiting is hard I know, but once the labour is over (and hopefully its not as long as mine was).
Walking around does work, my friends wanted me to go on a 5 mile hike, but instead I made them walk for a mile with me.

I’m not sure it’s because I’m a bloke, but it took me ages to work out what that picture was of. I thought it was the back of a bald blokes head at first!
Anyways, it certainly better come out soon otherwise I swear you’ll pop! Bet you can’t wait to actually see him/her/it, though. Have you got a name lined up yet?
My boss had a baby recently and I’ve been hearing great things about them. Well, apart from the puking during feeding, lol.
