I slept for almost 11 hours last night, only got up to use the loo 3 times as well, yay! But now i'm feeling completely exhausted! Ben went out for the afternoon to play football, so I did the washing up, tidied our bedroom and sorted some washing out then just felt like I was going to fall asleep any second! I've been led on the sofa for about an hour now and just can't get off, i'm hoping I won't go into labor now as I'm so tired I probably won't even be able to make it to the car! Ha. I woke up this morning feeling different again, lots more pressure down below, lower back ache and period cramps, it sounds a little odd but I do actually enjoy those pains as I know it means baby will be here soon, oh and now the cramps are back...for you girlies out there, to me it feels like the cramping you get when your period is imminent (like, the next 10 minutes), it feels just like that!

I keep finding things to clean..i swear i'm going to take the blinds down and try and get them in the washing machine next! It's not that things are dirty, it's just that I feel the need to clean them..oh that reminds me that I need to hoover the bathroom! See.......even with no energy right now I feel the need to clean! Ha. All of baby's bits are clean, all her clothes, bedding, pushchair and car seat etc. We keep meaning to buy her a little snuggle toy, so I guess we will wait till after she's born now! But she does have a Yoshi cuddly toy! Ha.

I was thinking the other day how people always say how quick their pregnancies went and I think I can honestly say that for me it feels like it's been 9 months, I said from the very beginning that I would try and enjoy each stage and every symptom as the advice I always had was to embrace everything, I have enjoyed being pregnant, very much, even the crappy symptoms like the nausea, braxton hicks and the stretchmarks, I really have learned to embrace them all. My advice to you mums to be or anyone TTC is to try and turn the little niggles and aches and pains into a positive, it's all for the greater good! :).

Ben's just popped to work to sort some bits out then we're ordering an Indian, watching Red or Black and then the X Factor! Then i think it will be time for a nice soak in the bath and bed time! :). I could fall asleep right now but I will hang on! Ha.

I really do feel as though baby is going to come very soon, it's only 5 days till our due date and if she's anything like her Mum she will be precisely on time! Ha. I have a feeling she'll be early though, just in the way i'm feeling but who knows! I also have a feeling shes back to back which from what i've read about, can make labor longer unless they can turn her..let's hope she wriggles back around :)

Might update in the next few days with how i'm feeling etc, then I shall update on Thursday with out 40 weeks pregnant post! Ahhh :)
