I am now overdue, and getting more increasingly fed up as each day passes (as my daughter and fiance...are quite aware of)!! Unfortunately they have been getting the brunt of it!!

We have tried the currie's pineapple etc, with obviously no luck!!! Any of you great people have any ideas to get this baby moving!!!

My induction isnt going to be for another two weeks!! The baby itself is 4 weeks biggerthan what she should be, so in theory is already 4 weeks LATE!! i cannot allow her to be 6 weeks LATE!!

Tell me bout it Whirley!!! Got of punched the midwife when she said that she believes baby to already be 10lb 6!!!

SCHOOL UNIFORM, at this rate she will come out wearing secondry school uniform!!!

Lets face it newborn clothing isnt going to fit her is it!! lol

My other daughter was a prem and wore dolls clothes for the first few months as newborn was too big on her!!!

Ive been asked by just about everyone in the street whether i was having twins or due to drop since i was only about 20 weeks though, they couldnt believe it when i said no just one and only 20 weeks lol

i decorated my kitchen by myself in 1 night a few days later i went into labour he was 3 weeks early and weighed 7lb 2 1/2oz if he had of stayed in there until he was due he probably would have been about 9lb the same as my eldest was

i agree the docs aren't always right they told me my eldest wasn't growing properly and would be less than 5lb but as i said he was 9lb i went through 20hrs labour and 2 hrs pushing before they relised he was stuck and i had a c-sec. they also told me my daughter would be about 10lbs but she was tiny at only 6lb 5 1/2oz. they were right with my youngesth though.

oh poor you she will come when shes ready. i was induced with all 4 of mine not because i was late they were all 2 weeks early i couldnt carry them for longer due to med probs.
they also said my last daughter was bigger than average all the way through but when she was born although 2 weeks early, she was only 6 pound 6oz.
Good luck hope all goes well for you.
