Can't believe my due date is here already! No signs at all though so I think he's staying comfy in there for a while yet!

Awww how fab!! Really hope baby arrives and you have a wonderful birth. Keep breathing and remember the 'peak' of a contraction means it's decreasing and one less before baby is in your arms!
You can do this!

hypnobirthing was a good read and helped me with my home birth with youngest the mental side of it really hit home in a positive way. the other aspect was to trust the two sets of muscles round the womb to do their job, just as our legs do when we walk, or our bowels do when we go to the loo! lol sounds odd I know.

I was due to have a sweep today, but the midwife couldn't do the sweep in the end as baby is not engaged anymore and his head is too high. He was deeply engaged a few weeks back but somehow has managed to get himself into an oblique (diagonal) position with his head stuck on my pelvis/hip bone and is still back to back, so that is what is stopping me going into labour. She said to spend time on all fours to encourage him to move into the correct position, but she said if my waters break I have to go to the hospital immediately as there is a risk of cord prolapse
