40w+5 and feeling down

[youngmum21]

Hi ladies, Im 40 weeks and 5 days today! :( I have a 17 month old son and waiting (what feels like a lifetime) for my little girl. I am absloutly huge everyone keeps asking if its twins, my ankles are non exsistant and I've never felt so exsausted in my whole life. I feel sorry for my son because I cant play with him.. all I want to do is sit down amd rest but it's very hard with my son around. I'm just feeling so down about it, so fed up with it all..! My partner works full time so I'm home alone all day with my son... I really just want my bany girl out! I want my body back! I want to be able to see my feet again!!! I still have my mucus plug I've not had a show I've no contraction like pains!

My baby girl was born at 40 weeks +2. The doctor offer to induce when I hit my due date but baby decide to come on her own. My baby is now 3 months and is an angle. But sometime I do miss her inside me.
Hang in there, she will be here soon :)

p.s. why won't your doctor induce since you are pass due???

Dont feel alone, im just 29 weeks and its rare i work so im home with my 16 month old son. I cant do as much like im use too. I miss playin with but my body just be so tired. Only thing that keeps my mood up is readin and play lil games with him. I take naps with him and watch tv. Soon u will have your daughter, next time u see a doctor some hospitals let u go and induce u.
