    Congratulations Kayalana! He's lovely :)

    I'm glad you're being given the induction Kitten, at least they listened to you. Not long until she'll be with you now!

    fairly good. though I was surprised when a friend had hers 5 weeks early and to be fair I only tend to make predictions when someone is already overdue so I'm never going to be too far out :p

    You'll have your baby by 12.01 am Sunday morning though I reckon! ;)

    I'll hold u to that lol!!! I'll be coming for you if u are wrong lol!
    love you lots like jelly tots :o

    Yay Kayalana!

    On another note, does anyone know what the latest date you can start your maternity leave is?? Is it your due date or can you work until the baby actually arrives??

    Hi everyone, been lurking and hardly posting for ages now but keeping up with everyone on the daily email digest. Huge congratulations to all the new mummies and hugs to everyone with imminent mummy cuddles.

    I've just looked at the list and oh my days I am no. 39... when did that happen... am suddenly feeling very nervous!

    Had my 31 week midwife appt today & left feeling a bit fed up. Bubba is all fine, heard heartbeat, fundal height where it should be etc. but I just feel like they are going through the motions and I'm just a number :o Does that sound pathetic? I wasn't even in there 10 mins today and I'm just feeling a bit apprehensive as it's my first and I don't know what to expect. I know way more from all the posts on here than from my midwife - she just seems really disinterested and non-commital about everything. It took ages to find the heartbeat today and I felt like I was going to cry when I actually heard it as I was panicking even though I had felt bubba move whilst waiting to go in. When I said I was worried something might go wrong she was really brusque and said there was no point worrying about things you can't control and things go wrong all the time in life... very reassuring... not! :(

    Sorry everyone, just feeling sorry for myself and a bit weepy I think. Never thought we would have kids as neither of us were really into the idea until the last year or two and left it late to start trying. Now I'm actually pregnant I can't really believe it and am so scared it is all going to go wrong and I'm already feeling so attached to the baby. It has all happened so easily despite my age that it can't possibly be OK (in my head). So many people have problems TTC that I feel guilty it was so easy for us. God I sound like a right nutter but I feel so scared about everything. We've started getting the room ready and buying things but I just keep feeling like I'm tempting fate doing all this stuff and we can't be this lucky.

    Sorry for the long, rambling and self-indulgent post :o:(. Anyone else have days like this? Most of the time I'm really upbeat and excited about it all, then I feel frightened to let go and imagine myself with a little baby, as if it is all too good to be true.

    On another note, does anyone know what the latest date you can start your maternity leave is?? Is it your due date or can you work until the baby actually arrives??

    My work told me it was 7 days before due date by law, and that if your off sick because of baby any time before then they can start your M/L early. I would not recommed doing it till 39 weeks..I went off 4 weeks early and I was bored but it was just getting to point where a week more and I would of been suffering.

    And no don't mind being on birth list I came quite late so didn't bother to get myself on it to start with :-)

    Wheee happy days.
    People don't know what they want until you show them.
