Well the title says it all! As of the passing of yesterday I am officially overdue *poo! pap! pooey!* So much for my several hours of false labour Wednesday being an indication that she wouldn't be long- awkward lil madam is determined to make us wait!
I've tried to keep myself chilled about it after spending Thursday been thoroughly peeved off, but TBH I am really having to bite my tongue when people keep saying "Haven't you had that baby yet?" or "Come on, get on with it!"- Like I have a ruddy choice in the matter. I know it's just the sorts of normal things people say, but do they not realise I want it all over and done with more than anyone? Aside from struggling not to snap at peeps when they say stuff like that, I'm slightly more meloncholy than I was and have resigned myself to making a point of ignoring every twinge or braxton hicks with absolute determination- when I can feel her crowning I'll believe it's happening
DH and DD are both really bored of waiting now, as is my Mum (a very excited Nana-to-be LOL. Jessie is 8 and there's no signs of my brother having any interest in kids, so up until we announced I was pg with Millie-Bump she had pretty much resigned herself to the idea that she was only going to have the one grandchild) Poor Jessie cried last night cos she's fed up of waiting for her sister We've warned her all along that babies rarely come on time, but it's still obviously frustrating for an eight year old who knows we've reached the due date now and really doesn't fully understand why Millie isn't making an appearence- bless her.
DH's Mum has booked a hotel for next weekend and is bringing DH's 6 year old daughter Beckie down to see her new sister- I just really hope she's actually got here by then LOL.
I've had hot curry, pineapple, nookie and done loads of walking, but nothing seems to be shifting the lil monkey. If she doesn't come of her own accord, I'm hoping the MW can get her moving with my Stretch and Sweep on Wednesday morning. Will keep you all posted
