40 Weeks Pregnant

I am officially full term today and have made it to the 40 week mark, i cannot believe how quick this whole pregnancy has gone, it definitely does not feel like 40 weeks.

I have been having a lot of braxton hicks contractions but nothing to get excited about, that's really all my symptoms this week definitely having a lot of discharge and pressure down there but that's all normal for this stage and baby is still moving heaps sometimes it seams i haven't felt him move for a while but i give him a little push and off he goes haha.

I have an appointment on Tuesday with the midwife but hopefully i don't have to make it that far and baby come this weekend or even today!!
