8 days til due date

Still here!!! :)
39 weeks gestation tomorrow, so only 8 days to go if the due date is the date baby wants to appear!
This baby has officially stayed in the womb longer than his/her big brother. He was born 9 days early and was a tiny little 6lb 12oz!
I know second babies are generally bigger and having gone over I think 7lb 8oz to 8lb is quite likely this time round. It all depends on how long they want to stay in. I am bigger this time and I really feel it.
Physically pregnancy wise it's been an uneventful weekend. Super kicky in there at some points, plenty of wobbles and jelly belly shifts (I love watching the egg shape of my tummy move from right to left occassionally) but no contractions since Thursday again. I seem to go 4-5 days then get a real attack of braxton hicks that calm down to nothing after a few hours.
Still, until my waters break now, I am not going to let myself believe that I am in REAL labour.
