Me too! I’m 39w 2d today (14 Oct) and no signs of labour as well. I’m pretty sure baby is comfortable in there. I do want to try natural birth but whichever is safer for her to come out I’ll be fine as well. Guess I need to start climbing my HDB 4-storey flat’s stairs until I give birth! Planning on having sex with husband on Mon 19 Oct who knows I’ll go into labour and deliver on 20.10.20 hahahah.. oh well they say it helps and I wouldn’t mind trying since I’ve been out of the game for about 4 weeks now cause too heavy. Lol. Try sitting on a gym ball, carefully do deep squats while holding on to something or against the wall, climb stairs, watch your 1hr fav series and walk along your corridor, anything that keeps your hips moving will aid baby into the birth canal.. though I was said to have exceeded 1 week after EDD.. lol We can do this! Few more days! 💪🏻💪🏻
