Anyone want a late bump buddy?

[mjvdec01]

He's transverse again. He was full breach at 4am when I got up to pee. I give up. It will be what it will be. I can't spend the next week obsessing about this, it's too exhausting. Ultimately, I have no control anyway.

MommyB: I've had some crotch pains today and I didn't fall. No other signs of labor. I've tried just to rest today... But, my head hurts so bad. I'm excited and nervous about tomorrow. But, I'm ready.

Daisy: I wish you felt better. I have no idea if it could be the iron tablets. These last few weeks are just terrible. It's a good thing though baby will be here any day.

MjvDec: Your baby is already playing with you. Try to take it easy. He could always go in the optimal position and stay there at last moment. I hope the movements don't cause to much pain.

Exciting for you! Do you go in first thing in the morning? Have you been induced before? I was both times before. It was really no big deal. You'll do great.

Baby's movements hurt pretty bad sometimes. I just have to deal with it until next Sunday, then it's all over. It's just getting through the week that's going to be rough. The pain is bad, and the constant rotating is making me crazy. I just wish he'd get settled.

Ahh, hun! I wish baby's movements didn't hurt so bad, sometimes. Next Sunday is not to far away. That has to be rare, I can't believe how much he is still rotating.

I go at 315pm, but cervildil isn't being inserted until 4pm. I was induced with DD, but am hoping it goes faster this time. However, it was a positive induction with DD and didn't last to long 12 hours from the first contraction, and 16 hours total. But, I was tight and closed. This time I'm 1cm, 20% enfaced, completley engaged. That was last Monday at my 38 week appt, so hopefully more progress has happened. I lost my plug Thursday night and have lost bits since... But, no BH, which is weird as I had more of them earlier in pregnancy.

Good luck tomorrow Leinzlove! Can't wait to read your birth story!

mjvdec01 sorry baby moving is uncomfortable. Hoping something happens before Sunday and if not at least the end is in sight

As for me, not much going on Altough today we tried so many things to help induce labour! We've walked, been on two bumpy car rides, and I've bounced on my ball for awhile!

 

[mjvdec01]

I have no idea how he is able to move around so easily. Right now, he's head down AGAIN! I know that when I wake in the night, though, he'll be transverse or breach.

 

[Leinzlove]

I wish he would keep his mind made up to stay head down.

MjvDec: Did your second induction go faster than the first?

MjvDec: Did your second induction go faster than the first?

My first was 11 and a half hours, with 1 hour and 45 minutes of pushing. My second was 10 and a half hours, with 20 minutes of pushing. Good luck tomorrow.

 

[Leinzlove]

Join me ladies... A January 15 birthday would be amazing. I doubt Zoela will be here by midnight.

 

[mommyB]

Good luck!! I hope things move fast and she's here today!!

 

[daisydaisy83]

Mjvdec - it must be so uncomfortable to have him moving so dramatically so often! Sounds like you have even more of a wriggler than me! I guesz that means he might move even when in labour...?

Leinzlove - hope all goes well for you it's exciting!

I'm still feeling nauseus think I'm going to stop the iron tablets again to see if it helps. Just had a midwife appointment and my bump has measured 36 for 3 weeks so have to go for a growth scan on Wednesday. Really feel like I'm ready for something to happen now but I can see me going overdue.

I hope not! I wish he would engage already. Either way, I only have 6 days left of this agony. I'm trying to keep that in mind, but it's hard.

Hopefully, you don't go overdue. I'm sure your baby will be found to be just fine at your growth scan.

 

[daisydaisy83]

I'm not especially worried about the growth scan, I have a feeling that she is just fine. It's more of a hassle than anything as we live about 50 minutes away from the hospital - at least we get to see her again before she arrives!

You're right, just another few days - it will all be out of your hands and you will soon forget all this worry and you will have your little guy in your arms! Another few days may seem a long time at the moment but I'm sure they will fly by on the grand scale of things. You're probably best just trying to distract yourself as much as you can until then as stressing about it won't make it any easier.

 

[mommyB]

Ahhhh Leinzlove I wish you could write us and tell us how things are going!!!

Anyone else currently in labour?

 

[mjvdec01]

I wonder how she's doing?

Our little man is still transverse, but today his head is on my right side, instead of my left. I really hope he's easy to turn on Sunday. I'm definitely asking for drugs beforehand this time, though. It was really awful without. I screamed the entire time. I'm pretty sure he'll turn, it's just a matter of getting him to stay until he's engaged. We'll see, just 6 more sleeps!

Ladies: I've been updating my journal. Link is in signature.

 

[mommyB]

Hey ladies!! How is everyone?

I checked out Leinzlove's journal and she had her baby today. She's really cute!

As for me I measured ahead once again at my appointment today so my doctor is sending me for a final ultrasound on Thursday to see roughly how big he is. I'm excited to see him once more before he arrives (and my mom is coming ). But at the same time I'm worried they are going to tell me that he's 10 pounds Although I know they probably won't be 100% correct.

Well I hope everyone is doing well....and hopefully everyone has their babies soon

 

[OliviaRae]

Hi girls, been a little MIA for the past few days running around trying to get everything ready. Although still not having any progression. Saw OB yesterday and he said still nothing but I started bleeding during the exam. He said that was normal and that it might continue for a couple days. I thought it was going to stir something up, and I was crampy all day afterwards but nope Oh well! She'll be here next week if not this week!

CONGRATS, Leinzlove!! She's beautiful!!

MommyB- haha that's funny. I am really curious to see how big our lil chub will be. Since I've been closely monitored from the beginning, they've been keeping an eye on her growth and they always tell me she is so chubby! Two weeks ago she was 7.5 lbs.............hahaha

Hope every one is doing well, and babies are all getting ready and engaged!!!

 

[Leinzlove]

Ahhh... Ladies I was hoping to here that you've had your LO's.

Olivia: Don't worry about cervical changes and progression. Those can happen out of the blue and all at once on L&D day.

Zoela Dawn born January 15, 2013 @ 12:15pm. Weighing 6lbs 12oz, 19 1/2 inches long.
