Getting anxious!

So I'm 39+1 with my first, and I'm getting really anxious and fed up. I want my Princess here so much! I've been sat at home on maternity leave for 4 weeks, and I don't want to wait any longer. I've been getting a few pains, but nothing significant. No show or anything, and starting to get really upset now. Any idea how to calm myself down? Thanks guys.

There's nothing you can do to make things happen sooner. Your baby will come when it's time
Really, you should enjoy your last few days because once your baby is born you will have no alone time, you will probably be exhausted, and you will no schedule of your own. Your baby will require almost every minute of your time.
You don't have much time left before the baby is here. Do some things just for yourself.
