Pregnancy: At 37 weeks and on Maternity leave

I just reached 37 weeks! That makes baby full term and it's safe for her to deliver anytime now. 

I started my maternity leave on the 11th dec and have been resting at home. Been trying to spend more time with G, sort out any last min errands + shopping and just have some down time. I've been trying to finish my preggie books too to be prepared for what's to come. 

I honestly feel like I'm playing some waiting game. Just waiting for the moment for baby to arrive! It can feel rather frustrating at times. The both of us can't wait to see our little one!

Symptoms wise, I started experiencing the tightening of my belly at 36 weeks but it's not frequent. And I feel lower belly stitch like pains too. I'm really not sure if they're Braxton hicks contractions or just round ligament pains. It's all very confusing to me! How do labour contractions feel like?! Even after googling, I'm still at a loss -.- I guess I will only know when I really experience them?

Maybe baby's just not ready to see the world yet. We'll probably be able to see doctor Heng this Friday!
