Yeah thats the word. Its not nice. I'm tempted to take a drive out Kelvin Grove and go over the hills to see if that would work. It would be nice if the bag of waters broke soon then things would be kicked into action - but I can't see it happening anytime soon, just like his older brother this one wants to put me in a bit of pain for the fun of it.

Haven't seen from Annie today so maybe she is in the middle of birthing? Fingers crossed for you Annie.

OMG the pressure I have got at the moment is just OMG. I'm sure he is trying to push his way out and not succeding. I don't want to move at the moment as when I do the pressure down there is just WOW.

I had all my checks done today, still showing a bit of protein, nothing major. BP is down (YAY ), and he is all the way down ready to come out 4/5's pal - something (I can't remember the name). And she thinks this baby is going to be abour 7 and 1/2lbs - Andrew was 8lb 4 so we'll see, I think he is more likely to be at least 8lbs.

And just off the topic, Andrew's old primary carer when he was at the nursery school finally had her baby yesterday. She was induced 10 days overdue and had a boy. He was a big boy 11lb 4 . Thats how big my DH was born.

2 weeks to go and I really don't want to do the last 2 weeks. I'm kinda hoping that at my next appointment something is up and I have to be induced asap. My friend thinks I won't go past Monday, but i'm sure i'll still be pregnant on Monday.

I packed his hospital bag today, and put 3 bags of Huggies into the nappy stacker. DH is painting his bedroom tonight and then we will go and buy the rest of the paint tomorrow to finish it off. Then hopefully Monday we can set everything up in there and then its all done. Then we can go back to the bathroom and the garden (looking forward to the garden bit as my vege garden is going to be much bigger - pumpkin plants are huge ) i've just planted the seeds for the winter veges so hopefully we will have them growing in the next few weeks.

Annie, I might if the high BP continues sorry. My MW seems to think we are heading down induction road. And i'm quite happy to do that.

I would of loved the rain to be cold rain. I've had the fan on me all day and still i'm soo soo soo HOT.

Yeah she does and Andrew knows her (hes been to a few appointments), but it is so much easier to go to the appointment without little people. I always try to make it in and out of the loo fast when he is there. Janet thinks he is lovely, she has told me about some children that have been to appointments. She has toys in her room (which is a good thing) and Andrew plays with them, but I make him tidy up before we go. She always says not to worry about it as she usually has children come in through out the day and some woman don't even offer to get their children to tidy up the toys. Which she finds really annoying, she would rather the offer to get the children to tidy up than nothing at all.

I think everyone now knows how badly I want this child out of me. I'm very lopsided with the swelling down my left side. Braxton Hicks that are lasting all day are just irritating me now. the list goes on - just usual last month complaints.

He's home from Daycare tomorrow and I would rather my MW appointments without him, just easier to get things done withont him there. I go and have a pee and he worries about where I have gone.

I got pre eclampsia at 36 weeks with him. I was in and out of hospital for 2 weeks till I packed a tanty (tears and all) to be induced and finally was. At the time I had him the whole maternity wing was packed, so they didn't want to risk a too early birth as neonates was full. At the time I didn't care and just wanted him out. The swelling had gotten so bad I could move my feet at all. Dr Grant took the brunt of it, but he totally understood where I was coming from
