What should I be experiencing at 37+2

[eroxie]

Hi ladies

I'm 37+2 and don't know what I should be feeling at this stage, I don't seem to be experiencing any Braxton hicks or any other form of contractions, does this mean my little guy is going to be late? Also his head isn't engaged and he still seems to have lots of space to move round.

Oh no defiantly not baby's will let you know when they are ready some are too comfy and want to stay past due date and have to enticed out hehe . Your lucky not to have had any Toni Braxton's, when you do feel them you,ll no for sure your belly goes tight all over mine came like I'd been shot then 30sec later fine then nothing for days. Take it easy enjoy your last few weeks being pregnant x

Yeah I wouldn't worry that you aren't having any, might just be that you aren't triggering them. I read that it was linked to things like dehydration and spicy food and I have noticed a correlation! I've been having them for ages but my LO isn't engaged either, am 37+5. Think he's stuck up there for the duration! Xx

Hey, my LO arrived 40 + 5 and I didn't experience a single Braxton hicks during my pregnancy at all

Hey. I'm 38 wks and haven't had any braxton hicks. Other than my usual painful spd I have no symptoms. I think this baby will be late. She's way to comfy in there and I am getting more and more frustrated! X

I didn't have any Braxton Hicks, baby was late but only by 3 days x
