Ugh, I feel for DH if this emotional stuff keeps up. It makes me wonder what I'm going to be like in labor and delivery! Possibly completely unpredictable.

August - Did you make DH come and look at the big goober again? I hope that evening primrose oil helps! Anxiously awaiting an update after your appointment this afternoon! I'm very curious what they'll make of it if she doesn't happen to be moving much while they monitor her. If she's moving during her normal active periods, I don't see why it should be a problem. I know my baby's pretty still between active periods, and I'm pretty sure that's normal. If they were monitoring right now, they wouldn't see much.

Thanks

August- hope your appointment goes well and lil girl cooperates!

DH was already at work so I didn't get to show him the goober. I think he learned his lesson. Bless his heart though. All the questions he has about everything going on. It's like he thinks I know when we're going to have the baby. Lol. He also seems to think I know what the dr is going to say or do. Yes, I have a medical background but, I have never done this before. Even the dr doesn't know when the baby will be here.

 

[lenorajoy]

I'm not alone then! DH seems to think I have some idea of when baby will be here, too. I have NO idea. Like sure, it could be tonight. But it could also be at 41 weeks. I wish there were some way of knowing!

 

[AugustAngel15]

Appointment went well. They saw her practicing her breathing and she moved plenty. So we're good this week. This coming Wednesday I have the growth scan.

 

[lenorajoy]

I'm glad things went well today and on to the wait for next Wednesday's growth scan! I hope the next several days go quickly for you.

So glad to hear August

 

[OnErth&InHvn]

aww girls!!! Tonight we put together the crib/toddler bed for the nanny boy and it made my heart melt.

Theres just something about putting together the crib and putting the bedding on.

I will be interested to see how he does in a toddler bed because he never tried climbing out of the pack n play but who knows!!

 

[FLArmyWife]

FX he stays put onerth

august- so glad everything went well

lenora- lol my dh was opposite. He swore he was going to guess when baby would come. but he also kept telling me I was pregnant before I got a bfp so maybe he just knows the changes better than I

 

[lenorajoy]

Onerth - I hope your nanny boy loves it and stays in the bed!

FLA - I believe DH guessed this weekend is when I would go into labor. I've suspected I would go into labor early, but I'm starting to have my doubts as we're getting so close to the due date now. Perhaps I'll have a February baby after all!

 

[FLArmyWife]

Lenora- from the moment I got pregnant I just had this feeling I wouldn't make it to my due date. But as I reached 38 weeks I started to think maybe I was wrong. DH guess that Sweets would come the weekend before he actually did.

 

[lenorajoy]

I never imagined from the beginning that I would deliver early. It really wasn't until I started getting so large in 3rd trimester that I started thinking I wouldn't make it to February. Before then I always assumed I would be past my due date because that seems most common, especially with first babies. Then especially when I found out why I was so large, between large baby and lots of fluid, I figured my chances were even better of going into labor before my due date.

 

[AugustAngel15]

Doesn't this whole waiting thing suck?!?!?!?! With you having all that extra fluid, you still may go early. I bet that you're first sign is your waters breaking. Lol. I can't imagine you have much more room in there. Lol

When I got pregnant with Athiliya I hoped I would have her early. She was due March 31st. On her due date there was no sign of her... My husband said she would come April 1st. Because he thought it would be funny. After it became apparent she was not coming on her due date, I hoped and hoped she would arrive on April 7th. My reasoning may be a bit silly. Anyway Was induced the 4th, cesarean on the 7th.

With Moira, I was convinced she would come early, especially after I hit 3rd tri. Nope. No sign of her. 50% effacement 0 dilation at my last visit. But she was breech, so they took her 2days before her due date. My husband kept saying she'd arrive on his Birthday. (12days before her due date. EDD was 12/25/15)

He was wrong both times

 

[OnErth&InHvn]

cd8 and still bleeding... Im giving it until Monday and then im skipping everything this cycle. Ive already taken my FE but im not going to waste anything else.

So frustrating! Ive been looking at OTC things since the dr wont do anything but its mixed reviews.

 

[BethMaassen]

I hope the bleeding stops by Monday,OnErth

 

[lenorajoy]

So sorry Onerth. How frustrating!

 

[Disneymom1129]

I went a week overdue with my first... it's not so bad. It was like well I've already waited 40 weeks what's 7 more days? Lol. Use those extra days to sleep while you can.

I thought it was great that Ellie came a day before her due date (or ON her due date if you go off her growth scans) because I was not wanting to go overdue again .

So either way I hope your babies behave and come when you're ready!

 

[OnErth&InHvn]

In case anyone was ever wondering... red clover tea isn't very good. It's almost too sweet. There's no way I can drink 4 c of it!!!! I'll aim for 2 watered down with regular sweet tea.

 

[lenorajoy]

It's funny, I've only had one growth scan, but it put my due date at 2/1. I just scheduled two appointments that day, so hopefully I'll get a couple of days past that!
