Anyone else really emotional?

It’s my due date today & I’m very emotional this morning. There’s no signs of baby coming other than on-off cramping. I know he will come when he is ready, but the last stretch is so hard, physically & mentally. I’ve been really good at compartmentalising over the last few weeks, but struggling today. 🥺

So much so. ❤️ I have been struggling with infertility and loss and ivf for 3 years. These last few weeks (due date next week) have been torture. Time has never crawled so slowly. And I’m trying to enjoy it, but my gosh it’s hard. ❤️

I'm 41+1 and feel you! The hormones don't help either 😔😢

absolutely, kept seeing everyone else talk about the struggle of the last few weeks and it's finally sinking in the same way. nerves and excitement will build up again when baby makes their arrival known 🤞

I found my due date really difficult. I was really emotional all day and felt really deflated. My mood picked up a couple of days later though and I’m now 41+4 and actually feeling ok. Think my body must be releasing more relaxin and oxytocin. Just trying to say that it might be a passing feeling but I know these last few weeks are so hard! What has helped me is making lists and trying to keep busy as much as I can

Yes I’ve been very emotional. Crying and finding it hard to keep my head screwed on. At least it’s not long now xxx

@Jodie this is really helpful, thank you ♥️

@Aoife exactly the same for me 🥺 it’ll all be worth it though ♥️

Oh I feel you 😩 today is my due date too! I haven’t had any signs other than tightenings and the odd cramp. It feels like the days are dragging. But we don’t have long left 🩷
