Can't Wait!

20 days left till my due date!
Yesterday and today I've been getting some tensing pains, nothing major but a little uncomfortable.
Really hoping this is quite early signs he may come soon since I'm incredibly impatient. Can't wait till he's here and to say I'm a first time mum, I'm not nervous about the birth at all and just want a natural pain med free birth.
Really hope I don't go too past my due date, I really don't want to be induced since it increases chances of complications and less chances of a natural labour!
So fingers crossed he makes an early or on time appearance!

Good luck sticking to your plan. I was the same way. I wasn't nervous about labor and wanted no pain meds. Well I went 3 days over and got induced. I was in labor for 46 hours and was okay with no meds until my water broke. I was in so much pain. The contractions and pressure is horrible after that water comes out. I had 3 contractions after that and I wanted the epidural. I'm not trying to scare you or discourage you. Labor is hard and it is like no pain you have ever felt before! I just want to say don't feel like a failure if you decided on pain meds. Good luck going all natural.
