114 for me :( Feels like a lifetime. Still queasy at almost 24 weeks and so sick of feeling sick.
34 days...getting crankier by the day! Hips getting worse and lots of Braxton hicks. Hopefully that's a good sign for a quick labour. Can only hope
I was just thinking, when the first photo of a newborn goes up in this thread it's gonna be REAL.
Feeling slightly freaked out now, that there are only 5 days my DH has off to do jobs, as he works 6 days a week.
Hoping he can get it all done, the house is still in disarray and in need of completion (painting and decorating that has been started but not finished)
Hi ladies! Hope you don't mind me crashing your thread! Just hoping for as many opinions as possible in a poll regarding the moon phase and what ia 'said' to sway what. So if you're familiar could you please pop on over and post an answer. Thank you :)

How is everyone going? Not long now for some of us :) I'm so ready to have this baby lol! 36+2 and counting...I delivered DS1 at exactly this gestation almost 9 years ago. My husband and mum think I'm going to deliver early because I'm so huge this time, but I think she's going to go overdue just to prove a point haha! Will be such a relief to not feel so sick and miserable 24/7
Hi Mummy, you are getting so close! I am 35+1 and getting a bit anxious. I want so much to have her early but only a week or two. I need her to stay in till about 38w so I have more time to prepare (mostly at work). I think the not knowing is the worst. I really am not prepared with stuff either. Have baby shower on Saturday and then I can finally go through and see what I need, wash clothes and blankets, install the car seat and pack my hospital bag.
Question for you ladies, what items are really necessity- playpen, swing, bouncer, rock-n-play? Can't decide what is best for a bedside sleeper until she moves to crib. Plus we have two story house so I need something for downstairs too.
You're so close Mummy !
Can't wait to see pictures of your beautiful baby.
Girliecat, Hope your shower goes amazing.
I'm hoping I deliver early too! Can't imagine another 3 weeks of the baby growing inside me..feel like I'm going to explode!!Quote:

I know it's not recommended these days but we did so in a very safe manner. I used a cradle swing or bouncer for when I had to go to toilet, have a shower, cook dinner etc. . I'd just make sure Bub was visible at all times. Play pens don't seem to be hugely popular here in Aus. I never liked the idea of one, but each to their own. I can see how they may come in handy in some situations. A playmat is handy to have too. Not sure what a rock n play is?? I didn't even bother with a baby bath for the other kids lol. I showered or bathed with them from birth, especially nice for skin to skin and encouraging breastfeeding. When they were old enough to sit, I'd just bathe them in the tub lol.
GirlieC. How did your baby shower go? Hope you had a good day.
Yipeee, we are all so close now. My maternity leave started this week. Feel amazing to be able to relax and not think about work for the next year or more. Have been to see the midwife. Everything looks good. She estimates baby to be 2600 gram which is great. My 3 sons were around 3 kilo at birth - she will probably be the same.
Looking so much forward to giving birth and seeing her.
Take care everyone.

I had my midwives appt yesterday at 37 +1 and she said I'm measuring full-term 40 weeks...can anyone tell me what he heck that means?? I didn't think to ask at the time as I was feeling pretty sick. She said as I was leaving that hopefully I'll go early.
