The past 2 days, bubs has been soo quiet, haven't felt anything! I know that it is engaged, so not sure if this is the calm before the storm, and today for some reason, I am feeling sooo good... haven't had any pelvic pain, doing lots of housework, making the most of it! We are the same... lots of girls names and no boys!

Lisha I am the same. Feel fantastic! Did yesterday too. Am thinking that either baby is no where near coming out, or its my energy spurt before labour?? (hopefully the later). I feel a lot less movement now too. Although MW did remind me on Monday that I should still get 10 movements per day, and to keep an eye on it.
As for names.... oh I don't even want to think about it! We still have no names sorted!!

Wow, you are due soon too! I have been watching out for your name to see if you had had your bubs yet. Sick of playing the waiting game too eh?!

drink some ice cold water if you want bubs to move. After you drink a glass have a lie downon the bed and bubs should start kicking. At around 34 weeks I was worried i couldn't feel baby and rung midwife and she told me to do that - sure enough He started kicking away - for ages!
Good luck with up and coming births. They say when you start cleaning you are 'nesting' getting ready for bubs so a sign that bubs will soon be there.

I have been through the nesting stage, now I'm just waiting for bubs to arrive!!
Yeah Lisha I was sick of it last week when I was feeling crap (had high BP) but now that has settled down, and I feel good, its a lot more bearable!! Have been trying to get out and enjoy the nice weather the last couple of days.
It is annoying not knowing when it's going to happen though!

I know... I even went for a walk with lucy around the block, something that I haven't done for about 2 months or more! Now that is saying something!

How exciting for you Lisha. But make sure you do get some movement during the day.

Maybe bubs is just having a wee rest in preparation for coming out.
Fingers crossed that she makes an entrance soon

Thanks... I have finally slowed down for the day, just been in the garden, and was sitting down before and bubs was booting me...
