Anyone want a late bump buddy?

[mjvdec01]

Olivia I'm not sure he fully understands the concept of a baby. But he does point to my belly and says 'baby' and he always kisses it. I think it will definitely be different once he's actually here!

Leinzlove that's awesome you lost your plug! My water broke right after I lost mine with my first. Here's hoping your water goes soon!

Mjvdec01 sorry your little guy is being stubborn, try not to stress too much about it (I know easier said than done ) I'm sure things will work out. Does it feel weird everytime he turns because I know my big boy has zero room!

It does. It's a slow methodical turn, not jerky or sudden. Right now though, he may be head down again. My next OB appointment is Tuesday. Only 4 more ni-nights.

 

[Leinzlove]

Mjvdec01: Same here. Zoela doesn't have any room left to flip. If she didn't I wouldn't be able to tell either. I hope he flips back.

MommyB: DD is the same, she kisses belly and is super attracted to it. She's always patting it etc. But, she really doesn't know.

AFM: Its been about 15 hours since I lost my plug. Crampy since but no labor.

Yay for another plug gone!! When's my turn? About the only symptom I'm having is super nesting mode. Have an OB appt Monday so we'll see if there's any progress.

 

[mommyB]

My next appointment is Tuesday too Hoping I don't make it to it No seriously.....I have no signs of impending labour! I'm not too worried, I don't think I'll go past 40 weeks anyways.

That's so funny mjvdec01, I wonder why he keeps turning? Sounds like me at night, can't get comfy

Leinzlove I guess labour can really start anytime after plug. Because my water broke right after I lost mine with DS I guess I was kinda expecting the same thing. Then friends of the family told me that she went into labour two weeks after the loss of her plug. But in your case I hope things start soon and you can avoid the induction

Nothing going on here.....I really thought I was going to have him earlier but now I'm thinking due date. My cousins wife and I are both due the same day and we are literally comparing symptoms every day I almost feel like maybe were over analyzing everything too much and the stress is preventing things from happening...who knows

Question.... during a contraction, does your LO move around frantically? lol I'm wondering if it's contractions I'm feeling and she's moving during them, or what I'm feeling is her just beating me up inside and it's a little painful

 

[Leinzlove]

MommyB: Thanks! I hope you don't make it until Tuesday, not alone your EDD. The wait and not knowing is craziness. But, either way its nice to know its not long. I haven't had anything going on here today. I definitley think I'll be making my induction. It's just as well... DH has his last day of work today and then Sunday family day... Then the BIG day. I'm nervous about DD staying with her grandparents. She's never stayed anywhere as of yet.

Olivia: I don't know hun. My LO likes to beat me up with her movements sometimes. Contractions feel different for different women. They most often start as a period cramp that spreads from lower belly to lower back. I didn't have any that I noticed prior to labor with DD.

 

[OliviaRae]

MommyB, are you in labor?? Haven't heard from you all day!!

 

[OliviaRae]

Guys?

 

[mommyB]

No I wish!!! But I did have a little accident today. I was showering and the bath mat slid while one foot was on and one was off and I kinda did a mini splits.....and well I pulled muscles in my crotch! I have been in so much pain all day! It hurts to walk, sit, get up....you name it, it hurts! I'm hoping the pain eases up tomorrow!

I wasn't on today because it was DS birthday party. So tiring! But a good day...besides the pain. How is everyone doing?

 

[OliviaRae]

Oh I forgot about bub's party! Hope it went ok. So sorry you fell!! I hope you recover quickly. Another day down...............

Oh, god! I can only imagine how much that hurt. Hopefully, you''re feeling better tomorrow. I hope your son had a great birthday!

 

[mommyB]

He had a great birthday party! He was very excited about his cake. He's obsessed with Disney Cars.....

So cute!!

 

[mjvdec01]

Good news! For the past 9 hours and 20 minutes, baby boy has remained head down. It's bedtime now, so here's to hoping he stays that way throughout the night. I''ve taken full advantage and been on my ball about 4 and a half hours in total today. Maybe I will have made more progress by my next OB appointment on Tuesday?

 

[Leinzlove]

MommyB: Ouch, I hope you've found some relief since falling. Your little boy is adorable. I'm glad he had a great birthday.

MjDev: So happy that your little boy has remained head down. I hope he remains so. I'm sure the ball will help with progress.

AFM: I can't believe tomorrow is induction day. Eeeek! Super excited!

 

[mommyB]

Leinzlove so exciting tomorrow is your day! How are you feeling? Nervous, excited, etc.?

mjvdec01 glad to here your little guy is head down, hopefully he stays that way and you've made some progress

It's almost 4:30am here and I cannot sleep My crotch pain feels a little better but I'm just super uncomfortable! ((Shouts)) When am I going to go into labour??? I just want my water to spontaneously break

 

[OliviaRae]

Ahhh Leinzlove I'm so jealous!! I hope everything goes smoothly for you. We want updates and pics!!!

Leinzlove - exciting day for you! Keep us posted with your news

Mommyb - sorry to hear about your accident, are you feeling any better?

mjvdec - good to hear your LO has turned around, hopefully he will stay that way now!

Olivia - any change with you?

I'm feeling extremely nauseus today and have diahorrea (sorry if tmi), just generally feeling icky. I kept waking up in the night as every time I changed position I seemed to get BH and cramps. I've read this sort of thing can be a sign of labour but then can't everything at this stage? I'm wondering if it's more likely due to me starting to take iron tablets on m/w advice this week...

 

[mommyB]

I'm feeling much better this morning! I can actually walk!

My cousin was saying that her iron tablets give her diarrhea, maybe that's what's doing it?
