39 Weeks and 6 Days Pregnant

My due date is TOMORROW!!!!
OMG how did that happen???

I feel good (fat and tired) - but I don't sense any change or feel as though something is going to happen anytime in the immediate future. If my waters were to break right now, I'd be in absolute shock!!!

I'm scared about becoming a mummy, but so excited too. I'm hoping I have that 'instant connection' as I have felt a little detatched from the baby and pregnancy. Its like they are separate things, and somedays I just cant associate being pregnant with having a baby. But I know its because of my history, and I'm sure that its normal to be a little weird like that :)

I am excited though. Ready to take labour as it comes, see how I cope, and go from there. Group B Strep Positive so have 4 hours after water breaks to get to hospital, or I have to go in when I'm having 3 contractions in ten minutes and they are lasting at least 45 seconds. They need to be consistent for an hour for my OB to classify it as established labour. I'm very happy I wasn't asked to come in immediately, as I'm thinking that I'd like to 'attempt' to labour at home as long as possible. But maybe I'll have one contraction and go, yep hospital and drugs for me please. So as I said, I'll take it as it comes!!!

Will try and update later, trying to get some last minute things sorted. Just wanted to make sure I definitely gotin one last post before our little one arrives.
