°°*°September 2012 Mommies To Be/Due Dates°°*°

Hey Darkest :)
My two never engaged before I was in labour, and I have no idea this time! I have MW tomorrow, so she might give me some clues, hoping still head down!
Heythatchick, hope your wee man is fighting fit when he comes out, keep us posted!
 
Well ladies im getting a stretch and sweep at 37 weeks...

Has anyone had a successful sweep this early?? Should i take EPO or RLT to help prepare my cervix?
 
Any more news Heythatchic???

Mumsince, i had sweep when over due with DS (didn't work) so had induction. Good luck with yours!

I took RLT tablets with DD and had a quick labout (2-10cm in 2 hours :-0) but i did also labour fast with DS and didn't take anything so i don't really know if they work or not. Am going to take the tabs again this time from 38 weeks.
 
Hey girls, I wrote a,post recently but its no where to be seen it was super long to.damn it...just a Quicky this time ...I'm still in hosp :( bubs is doing well still happy and healthy, she is now in the the 50th-75th percentile so she's slowed down a wee bit as she was in 75th-90th recently..... I've had steroids, which has made my levels a bit whack but I'm hoping once they r cleared from my system things will settle ....bp has stabalised but is sitting at 140/90 on average ...had a bit of a spike tonight at 165/90 but came back down so I'm not going home any time soon ..... Boooooo.... Drs think I won't make it past 36weeks but would love to be proven wrong....so cook my lil princess cook.

I'm feeling great so it sux being stick here but at least I'm in the best place

Heythatchick omg I so hope he sits tight for a bit longer.... Take care of urself and ur wee man ....please keep us posted ...I'm sure he will be perfect sending u loads of dust :dust:

To all u other lovelies sending loads of love ...xx

Earliest I had a sweep is 39 weeks, and I was still waiting over two weeks later and was induced. Last time round I had 3 sweeps from I think 40 to 40+10 and went in to labour after the third... no harm in trying RLT and EPO...

I hate it when that happens and posts disappear! I tend to select it all and copy before I hit sumbit so I can always just paste it in again!
Sorry you're still stuck there, but like you said, it's the best place at the minute...

Heythatchick, any word?
 
Heythatchick- hope all goes well, keep us updated! Thinking of you
Darkest- happy 34 weeks and hope the scan goes well tomorrow! Glad to hear your friend's little boy is doing well and thriving. :)
Ljayne- Happy 36 weeks for yesterday :)
Mumsince -never had a sweep so early so can't comment but might be good to start on the EPO and RLT to soften the cervix
Erin- so glad to hear baby is doing really well - just so sorry to hear that the BP is still high and you can't go home :( thinking of you and hoping BP stabilizes soon so you can be discharged! Hugs
Lucy- Happy 36 weeks for today! :)
Not much news here- just very tired and it is so hot here so trying to avoid going out and instead staying indoors with the air con on! Have routine OB appointment tomorrow and then a scan a week Friday so will be interesting to see how much baby has grown. I have put on 4lbs since my scan a fortnight ago and bump has definitely got bigger! Hope everyone has a nice day, take care xxxx
 
I feel for you Kate, I'm so glad it's cooled down here! I had MW this morning - she wants to see me weekly now that I'm 36 weeks... she does so well to put my mind at ease. I've pretty much decided not to see the diabetes specialist, as no one can provide anything to say that my previous glucouse screening results could be so wrong just because the blood was tested 12 hours after it was drawn... (although I'm willing to stand corrected on that one). I personally don't think this baby will be as big as B was at birth - my guess (for the record) is 10lb 6oz (4.7kg) on the 12th September... place your bets now! Other than that everything seemed to be OK - head down but not engaged, no protein in my wee (but some white cells, whatever that means? she didn't seem worried anyway) and BP nice and low...
I have to decide for next Monday whether I want to go to the Gerburtshaus or the hospital for delivery... I'm torn. A silly little bit of me says Geburthaus so that I can have the birth written up on the little noticeboard in the hall (how juvenile!) but a big bit of me doesn't want to be sent home two hours after giving birth. Apparently if I feel that strongly about that I can be transferred to the hospital overnight. Then there's the "sensible" bit that thinks of proximity to doctors and extra help if needed, which is answered by the whimsical part of my brain that says in the hospital interventions are more likely even when not 100% medically necessary. Looks like I've got some thinking to do!
 
Well Hey you guy!!

Last time I was on, this thread was closed. I am so glad to see that it is back up and running. How has everyone been?? its been a while i know, but I've been up and down since the last time posting here. Let's see where do i begin....

well went into sort of labor at 28 weeks, contractions 3-5 min apart for 1 1\2 hours, but luckily with medication, it was stopped. whew.. didn't want to have him yet.. glad he was being stubborn and didn't want to show his face. then I failed my 3 hour gestational test, so now I am checking sugar's 4 times a day and will start NST and ultrasound monitoring starting at my next drs apt. He seems to be ok, still moving constantly and things seem to be ok with the exception of the bumps in the road. I also was told I would get my c-section date at my next apt, so that is exciting:):).

So thats whats been going on with me lately.. hope everyone is well.. and their LO's are doing good as well..

missed you all!!

~Tricia~
 
I know right!!!

The doctors are going to start ultrasound and NST monitoring at my next apt so hopefully they will catch anything that happens to pop up.. ahhh.. just wish september was here :)
 
37weeks today, cant believe i've got to full term :happydance: Just the waiting game now...
 
:happydance: happy full term! Hope you're not waiting another 5 weeks now...
 
Comparison time...

I thought I was much bigger with my son back in 2009, but it doesn't look like much of a difference here! What do you all think (there is a 2 week gap though)
 
yayyy.. just got the paperwork in the mail for my c-section... my c-section is scheduled for 09/19/12. I can't believe that will be his birthday unless he decides to come early.. I have my date and will be counting down the days :)
