Oh, MamaBee. Sorry your body won't let you sleep, but thanks for the laugh by taking it so lightly!
canadabear, I have been getting random nausea here and there. Not sure what it is... Just pregnancy I guess. Ha.
Babyv, it would make sense to cancel the appointment. And wow, that is a pretty quick labour for your friend! Nice!
Livvy, I hope you can get a sweep next week (and that it works)! Or better yet, that you have your baby before then! I'm sure some of us are bound to go overdue, but it does suck to think about.
Bubbles, sorry you missed so much sleep for those cramps that ended up being 'nothing.'
That stinks. Hope you can catch up on the sleep before baby arrives.
I had an appointment this morning (37+6) and was disappointed to find that I am just 1 cm dilated and my cervix is still "pretty thick" (to quote the doc). She did a sweep (and did not hold back... ouch), but she doesn't think it will do much. She said it usually takes a few sweeps to do the trick. So far it doesn't seem to have done much; not even any spotting or anything. Blech. Feeling kind of discouraged; I guess I'd had it in my head this baby would come early (and I guess he still could). I think I'm just super emotional about other things going on right now too and I ended up having a few good crying sessions today. *sigh* Feeling a bit better tonight and starting to change my mindset that I could have another overdue baby. Just because
I'm ready for him to be born doesn't mean
he is.
