Kelliria no I have only ever had a sweep when I was all ready in labour I wasn't going to have one if baby wasn't engaged but since they are hopefully, it'll work. Oooh so close for you too...not far behind me at all :) 7lb is a lovely weight, my daughter was 7lb1 at 40 weeks...so I hope this one doesn't stay put for too much longer...my son was 8lb5 at 41 weeks and oh my god the burn when I was pushing was unreal in comparison...talk about ring of fire lol. The latest they'll let me go over to all being well is 4th December...oh I hope not hehe xxx

Good luck to everyone but I’m probably not joining you quite yet. Blood test came back positive but super low, so doesn’t look good. Same faint line this morning.

Hey Ladies! How bad is getting a sweep? I find just a normal pap is uncomfortable/ painful! My Drs haven’t mentioned a sweep to me yet however I am being induced in 2 weeks so who knows!

Wow lots of excitement on the board, Most of you ladies are so close!!! I can't wait to see beautiful baby pictures if you guys choose to post them:)
@kelliria I've got my fingers crossed for a 29th baby for you!

@kellerina .
Hope your pregnancy going well honey... I c you don't have long to go.
Best wishes for when it happens.

39 weeks today mama's! It's 6am here and I've been up for 2hours with Braxton hicks :( I'm so bunged up with cold that I'm struggling to breathe lay down, and my throats sore too....urgh why do I get this now?? Yesterday's bump pic

@lakarmw such a beautiful bump!!! But you poor thing, I bet your just miserable:(

Thanks...I'm torn between wanting baby out so I can take some medication and wanting to keep baby in so they don't catch what I have xxx

Lakarmw, any day now! Omg! Sorry you have a cold. The baby sounds like (s)he is almost ready. I couldn't imagine having a cold while giving birth. That would be horrible.
Skellynet, omg, how are you? When are you due? I've wondered how you have been. The new place still going well for you? You are due soon as well, correct?
Right now, I'm doing ok. Just ordered epo and red raspberry leaf tea to help soften cervix. She has dropped but plug still intact. I have 19 days to go so i guess I'm rushing it. So ready to see her but enjoying my time with my daughter as well.

@Lakarmw, that sucks! Stay hydrated. Your body might hold off till you're better before it really goes into labor. Hopefully so you'll have more energy. Dr. told me I could take a low dose Sudafed when I got a cold - just to dry up some of the congestion. Hope it passes quickly. Your bump looks gorgeous though...
@Tryingafterloss - less than 2 wks now! I'm very excited for you. I have 5-6 more weeks to go before induction.
AFM, I'm 33 wks now. Exhausted. Sitting at my desk at work not really doing anything but nursing a bad headache. I had all the windows open at home, freezing everyone out and still was overheating. ugh. These last weeks are tough.
