As you can see its next week for me! ... how are you guys feeling? I'm trying not to think about it.. just relax and go on as normal.
EVERYONE is asking me though.... when I "think" the big day will be.. my husband gets it everyday at work.. its more than annoying.. !! My mum is calling me constantly asking what the specialist "thinks" etc etc I have bag packed but honestly think it will be after due date.. What are your experiences?! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Arghh, I don't miss that, the constant "have you had it yet" Although, in saying that I, we had a family sweepstake of when baby would be due and I guessed the right date. Good luck!!! -------------

oops meant approaching obviously!
left out the feelings of panic one day and excitement the next... I feel like I'm "ready" one second then the next I'm glad he/she is still inside me because I dont feel ready or competent... those are the most exhausting things at this stage... I dont like thinking like that! ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I don't miss those questions either.. especially seeing as all my side of the family live overseas and even my Mum would txt/email/call every day asking if there was any news.. as if I wouldn't tell her if there was lol.
I personally wasn't concerned too much about it (just wanted it to happen already) but I found everyone else's anticipation made me more nervous! All the best Marika, exciting times!!!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

The questions get tiring!
People knew I wasn't due until end of feb, but didn't stop them asking as soon as the NY hit! 
I told myself pregnancy was 42 weeks, not 40, so if I did go over due - I wouldn't be disappointed! Just relax and enjoy what few moments you have minus baby, soon baby will be here!!
I know it's hard to stop thinking about it, Lily came at 39 so I was very shocked - where was my extra 3 weeks!! We also had a family sweepstakes. I was the only one who guessed past my due date but no one guessed right. ------------- http://lilypie.com">
