Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

[Pisces24]

I was induced last time, really hoping i'm not this time it was a long process and took a lot out of me!

 

[JDH1982]

Still couldn't have a sweep today, as cervix still closed *urgh*

Hopefully things will still happen on their own, otherwise my induction is booked for 15th November, i'd go in around 3pm. Really hoping to go natural before then...I have a week, cmon baby!

hope everyone else is doing ok?

Sorry to hear that, JDH! I hope you start out natural, as well! Keep the faith, labor can come on quickly when you are not anticipating it! I think I already posted this before...but my mom was closed and long at her dr appt when she was pregnant and doc said at least another week. Well, THAT night she had my sister (first baby, even!). I hope your LO surprises you in the next couple days!

Eeek...how are u ladies even able to walk around normally? My BH and cramping are so bad that I couldn't even take a walk if I wanted to! Been this way for atleast the last couple weeks too, maybe longer. Monday is the day though and I can't wait either!!

I guess its just somthing you make yourself do coz you want baby out ool. Although running round after 3toddlers all day is getting hard

 

[2nd time]

Had app with anaesthetist (?) lol and he was nice to give me a quick scan yesterday baby boy is fully engaged and he said it will be a surprise if I make it to Wednesday lol we shall see . his estimated to be about 8 pounds but I know these things aren't 100% accurate !was exciting tho this thread seems so quiet now ....where's all the nov sparklers .....not long now ! So exciting x x

I'm sitting here thinking shall I do the farmers market tomorrow. No signs and symptoms of labour. Cervix still back and closed and not an awful lot of BHx.
I've got quite a few bits and pieces made up so I may as well start to pack it all up and get ready to stand in the cold and rain tomorrow. It'll be nice to actually get out and see some "real people". (and I can have a bacon sandwich!)

 

[babymonkey18]

My alarm just went off for my last day of work!!!! Yay!!!

I've been having my moments of achiness. Not sure if that means anything is happening yet or just normal aches at the end for being so big, lol! I get kicked so much everyday!

Anyway, I'm guessing I won't have my LO for a while still. Only 37+4 today so I personally want baby to bake for another 2 wks before making the debut

I can't walk because of the SPD. Walking from the car to the doctor's office is maddening pain! I can't imagine walking to induce labor. I'd end up in a wheelchair!

That's what I'm saying...I haven't been diagnosed with anything(allthough I have wondered if I have that), but I have been so sore and in so much pain for atleast the last 2 or 3 months, I COULD NOT even force myself to walk if I wanted to. I can barely make it through the grocery store (and very slowly at that). My back, entire pelvic area, butt, and everything is killing me...So, I know what you are going through! And, it's not because of belly size, because I am smaller than most (belly-wise).
Ok, enough complaining...I am extremely thankful to be having this baby, especially since it took alot of work to make him...but just needed to vent a minute because no one seems to understand how much I have been hurting. And you seem to understand...thanks jammers!

 

[jammers77]

Yup it sounds like you've got the same thing I do. I can't sit on even a padded dining chair for an hour without feeling like my pelvis is going to explode into a million pieces when I get up. lol But it's worth every last little bit of pain to see the end result!

 

[elt1013]

Yup, definitely worth it! (but I am glad it's almost over, lol)

 

[gardenofedens]

sorry about the pain ladies. my back hurts by bedtime a and my legs go numb when I sit so I have to constantly reposition but walking is great. I'm walking 2-5 miles per day!

I'm officially 39 weeks today by ovulation, can't believe I made it this far after having dd at 36 weeks. from 35-38 weeks I was so ready and felt so overdue even but now I'm actually feeling the opposite. I'm definitely anxious to meet ds and so jealous of everyone that already has their babies but I've changed my perspective and am enjoying the last week or so of my most likely to be last pregnancy.

my next appt is on Tuesday and I'll finally get another cervical check ( declined the last two, was 1cm and 50% effaced at 34+4). I don't think there well be much change since I haven't had any real contractions since the last full moon but I'm pretty confident my ds will be here by 11/17's full moon!

Due date tomorrow for me! I feel like not much is happening. Mayb plan to go out for dinner to 'celebrate' tomorrow hehe, make the most out of our final days as a couple. I figure the more things I hav planned, baby will decide to disrupt them and want to come!
My parent's will b here in 2wks today! Can't wait to see them, hopefully baby will b here ready to meet them too. The thought of folks visiting for first time makes me want to clean the house more than a new baby coming anytime soon!

 

[Middysquidge]

I'm 38 weeks today, not many signs yet, I had my daughter at 39 & 2 but so far this baby and pregnancy have been a complete mystery so it wouldn't surprise me if this one was late!

Good luck to all of the sparklers, it's our exciting time yey x
