Pregnancy week 39

Pregnancy calendar: week 39 of being pregnant - The phone may never seem to stop ringing at the moment as everyone wants to know if you have gone into labour.


Discuss pregnancy week 39 on our forums, right now! Or, post a comment below.

You

You may be very tired and uncomfortable by now, so enjoy any rest you can get. You may also have trouble sleeping now because of your big bump. The phone may never seem to stop ringing at the moment as everyone wants to know if you have gone into labour.

Your baby

The bones in your baby's skull are ready for birth. They can slide over each other and overlap, allowing the head to pass through the cervix without damage.

Getting tired of the phone calls. Just want it over now; back is sore, ankles swollen and the Hicks are fluttering. Not sleeping to well and getting really bad heart burn. Can't wait to meet my little boy, but had enough of being sooo big i can bearly do anything.

Hi anyone who is pregnant with high blood pressure beware that you could be sent to hospital early, thats what happened with me. I was kept in 2 days before they induced me and my baby boy was a week early. We are both home now and doing well but nothing prepares you for the long lengthy labour.Just get plenty of rest and keep your blood pressure down by drinking lots and resting... Ps all you ladies complaining about phone calls and texts dont, cuz those people who are asking are going to be your best friends when you are wanting some help with baby. Also when you have the 3 day baby blues those friends and family can help you put your life into perspective and give you the love and attention you will crave, this is deff a new phase in ones life and should be treasured and enjoyed... motherhood has its rewards and when baby smiles up at you, all the pain and worries will pale into comparison. Good luck and take care new mums and dads.. i know I am enjoying each and every second of mother nature...

If one more person phones or texts to see if Ive gone yet im going to scream and people asking that they be contacted as soon as I would go into labour. Do thay not understand that giving birth is a private thing between you and your partner with out half the country ringing to see how your getting on aaahhhh!!!
