    Yip, my first thought when I saw all that housework you were doing was 'nesting'! You'll have her very soon. Take care xx

    Any pregnant ladies want to spend their last few hours at my house? I'll provide take-aways. ;)

    There's plenty to nest here...

    I might take you up on that if I go overdue (12 days left and counting)... I'm fed up of cleaning my own house. Hubby is pleased with his clean house but it's not going to last once baby is here...

    Good luck Sarah, we're all rooting for you!

  • I agree that the nesting is a sure sign you are almost ready.

    I remember mowing our large lawn and doing the weeding just a couple of hours before DD2 was born. I wanted the garden to look nice when guests came to see her. It did the trick my waters went as soon as I'd finished and she was born a few hours later. Later that day I felt very contented looking at my nice neat garden with her in my arms!

    Course I will Lenny! Don't hold your breath though- all these overdue ladies are starting to worry me... I REALLY don't want this bump for another 3.5 weeks.

    HI IA, sorry to bother you but I have asked my hubby if he can remember what the midwifes told us on how to induce labour and hes had a read through this thread and I'm saying "Oh, wouldn't it be nice to have another one - then Mollie (8 months) would have a playmate etc etc" and he said if you give birth today or tomorrow then I can have another one - hes' betting you have Kaitlyn after that - so, without any pressure at all, could you please hurry up and have your darling baby ;)

    Apart from that, hope all is going well and you are not getting too stressed xx
  • hurry up baby!!!!!!!!
