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.

I'm 39 + 2 and feeling the same way!  But I've only been on leave 3 days lol Working kept me distracted so it's hard to sit home alone just waiting.  So far I've tried to keep a normal routine (went grocery shopping, got a mani/pedi, did some housework).  Just keep yourself busy and the little one will be here before you know it :)
