I had the engaged confirmation but the pressure eased loads a few days before she was born!

I gave birth on my knees and def worth a try if possible. Its amazing the difference it made!

How is it nearly 1pm!?!?!

 

[AmeliePoulain]

My first fully engaged but then became fully free again sometime between 38-39 weeks. She was very little though and I had a good amount of water.

This baby has got up to similar tricks! More common with 2nd or more babies though.

I hope no stirrups for you Wiggler Ivy was a forceps delivery in stirrups, I can't watch forceps deliveries on OBEM even now

 

[Midnight_Fairy]

Hope you dont need them xx

congrats, cherry and gflady!



So, ladies, looks like i broke the thread.

I had been doing a LOT of updating in the past two weeks, clearing out people who no longer post on BnB, adding baby announcements that were announced in 3rd tri, etc. I was using a spreadsheet to help me keep track of everyone, and I guess you're not supposed to copy/paste back and forth from them? Ooops!! My husband happens to be a web developer and he told me that i probably pasted extra info from the spreadsheet which is now causing BnB's database to time out. So, I contacted technical support to see if they can fix it.

So sorry, ladies - i remember how exciting it was to finally see my son's name added to the 1st page of my November 2011 group thread, so for those who are still waiting for their turn, i'm hoping it is something simple that they can fix soon. In the meantime, i am keeping a list of new babies born since i was last able to update - I feel terrible for breaking it!

You're quite the dedicated thread operator, Fides! No worries!

I'm off to have a post-due ultrasound in a few hours. As long as all is well in there I'll be home afterwards as usual, otherwise they'll be keeping me in for delivery today.

Have a feeling I'll be coming home... can't imagine having my baby girl by tonight! We'll see, I suppose.

Fides you have worked do hard. Thanks so much.

[Jembug]

Fides I think you have done an amazing job even if you got onto trouble
Why are you STILL pregnant????

 

[rem_82]

fides u are doing a great job keeping up with this thread. Why have they not induced u yet?? surely your not supposed to go that far!!!! i hope your baby comes soon.

congrats gf and cherry!!!

 

[fides]

Why are you STILL pregnant????

My son came at EDD +13, so i guess i'm a slow cooker? My mom swung back and forth between 2 weeks early, 2 weeks late then 10 days early, so i was really hoping to follow her pattern, though.

Why have they not induced u yet??

Baby's completely healthy and i've been fortunate to not have GD, high BP, fetal distress, or any other induction indicator yet (praise the Lord)... I'm waiting to get in for a full biophysical but it's not looking like that will happen before the weekend - probably Monday - but I'd rather just go into labor (like NOW!!!) so that i don't have to be induced b/c i'm terrified of permanently damaging my pelvis (a risk for SPD) if i go the pitocin/epidural route.

Come on, baby, come on out!!! Pretty sure Newt's going to beat me to it.

 

[Newt4]

Lol I don't know. I still got 13 days till due date lol

 

[smileyfaces]

I have been sent to hospital for reduced fetal movements, just here now waiting to be seen! Im sure everything will be just fine

Fides, you have done a great job, hope you dony get into TOO much trouble

 

[Wiggler]

I had the sweep, she couldn't find my cervix at all to begin with, she expected it to be right at the back, but it was right at the front which is a good sign she said, I am also 1cm dilated, very soft and "ready to go"

Her hands were so cold! Like ice!

Booked in for induction on the 25th, but she doesn't think I will need it.

 

[Kitty_love]

Congratulations Gflady!!! Hope you're both well and home soon!

Good luck Smiley. Best to check, though I'm sure everything's good.

Wiggler-ready to go sounds like great news!

No worries, Fides, you've done great work keeping this thread up. We all appreciate it!

 

[Lindylou]

Hope we get some more love bugs soon. Xxx

woke up just before 1 am to pee and couldn't sleep. so I ate some dates because i was hungry and they're easy to just pop in my mouth and have food in the belly (i don't do breads etc). Within the hour I knew i was in trouble I spent 4 hours with a constant faucet of poo and violent vomiting (sorry tmi). Either my body is rejecting these now (after 10 weeks) or they're contaminted in the processing because I went through the same thing last friday and again this past wednesday not knowing the cause...the only thing those three sessions had in common was eating those damn dates I just bought about an hour before getting sick
So I can't get ahold of OB to move my appt and I have to show up weak and dehydrated. She does a check, baby is still posterior and super high up (compared to last week's low appt) and there is absolutely no change in my cervix except now it is super high up like baby. Injust keep envisioning my labor with ds where he wouldn't descend. With her so high up and badly positioned my risk of being induced AGAIN skyrockets I'm so tired and so disgusted, guess I best plan on spending my whole day on my knees trying to turn this LO. Wish I knew why she turned out of her perfect position to start with
