fx KNS that tommorrow you'll be back on with an announcement. Hope things go smoothly for you two.
 
yay kns!!!!! how very exciting!!! :happydance: cant wait to see some baby pics and hear how things go

tanikit- i wont overdo it. your probably right, it could be much worse. im trying not to be bitter that its going down instead of up, but its hard. i guess when you make changes you expect things to get better, not worse, or at least stay the same. my DH would be all over me if he thought i was doing too much. he is thinking of taking thursday off to do our grocery shopping early and have it done before induction. if he does i will probably get out and shop or something that afternoon. i figure it cant do too much harm the day before being induced. im gonna do the same as you with going in myself and DH can meet me at hospital later. he has a big job getting 4 kids around and taking care of them all day. dont want them to all get up early just to hang out at the hospital all day. you have to be there so early. i had to be there at 6 with my last induction. i dont know about this hospital yet, but hope its not 4am!!!! :hugs:

brai- yay for the shower!! hope you have a great time!:flower:

melissa- i have been crampy all day too. woke up last night for a couple hours and was feeling so sick. ended up having a lot of BH and cramps. i think if i go into labor before induction it will be at night. it seems like i have a lot of contractions at night.
 
that's great KNS!! wishing you luck!

Melissa - OH thinks baby is coming tomorrow. I told him that most people's water breaks at night because they are laying down, and so he told me not to break it on the couch! lol! So I then informed him that most people just have a trickle instead of the full on gush! So we are just waiting to see if anything actually happens. I definitely have an increase in discharge as well, so I am hoping that is a good sign of things to come.

I am so tempted to have some sugar today. I don't know why it's bothering me so much lately, but it is and I want some! I just have a craving for some chips and dip! :(
 
KNS - thats awesome i hope tomorrow you are posting about :baby:

Brai - i hope you have a blast at your shower tomorrow.

Ymmmm chips and dip. I must be hungry cause every thread i go on, whatever food is mentioned, i want :rofl:

i hope he is right and you do go tomorrow hun!!! and i hope you dont get anything on the couch, lol! the only time mine broke it was a gush, but not a big one and had been losing a lot of plug so had a pad on.

im craving sweets every day lately. maybe its just an end of pregnancy thing?
 
I find I am starving lately, and definitely want all the bad stuff!

It would be so nice to go tomorrow. So far, the cramps aren't turning into anything.....
 
Yay kns - good luck and hope we will be hearing a birth story soon.

Melissa (blessed) I think its normal to feel disappointed especially after all that bed rest - hang in there - once baby arrives it will all be worth it. When will you get details about the induction? I am going to leave DH to come when he wants to but will take my phone and call him if things start sooner as I need him there to test my sugars if contractions take off - have at least got my mother to look after DD - will your kids come to the hospital all day?

Melissa (msarkosi) hope labour will start soon. If only you knew then perhaps you could have that sweet stuff - just don't do it just as you go into labour cause you need perfect sugars in labour - a once off before you go into labour probably wouldn't matter (and I didn't say that lol)

I am so scared now of waters breaking anywhere - the only reasonable place in our house is on the tiles and I doubt that would happen. Last time mine broke in hospital on the bed as I moved positions and labour had just started - they broke in a gush.
 
Good luck KNS! Hope all goes well and can't wait to hear!

I've just read through the day's posts...we had our birthing class today from 9-5:30, went grocery shopping after for dinner stuff...made a steak, salad and potatoes...it was YUMMY! Long day with the birthing class being so long but I'm glad we did it and glad we did it all in one chunk like that. Learned some things, and was reminded of some things I read in books...needless to say I expect to forget it all in the throws of labor! :) DH will have to remember it all :)

Oh and my belly button is nowhere near popping out or even flattening out...i have a grand canyon type and it's gotten pretty shallow but DH is betting it won't pop :( kind of wish it would though...just so i could see what that looks like on me...and there's nothing wrong with proving DH wrong too :)

Gosh we are going to have some babies very very soon! How exciting :yipee:
 
tanikit- so far the plan for induction will be me going up there early to get things started and he will get kids around in the morning and feed them at their normal time, 8ish. i cant see making them all get up early to sit around in a hospital bored for hours. he will bring kids to hospital until the girls leave to stay with friends for the weekend that evening. he will have to run back and forth between home and the hospital for naps/lunch/dinner/etc. until evening when he will have to drop off the girls and take boys home for bath and bed. its gonna be a very crazy day for him. he will have help from his dad and step-mom, but not sure what times until they figure out when they work. he will have more help on the weekend when family doesnt have to work. our girls can stay with friends, but our boys are just too little, so he will have his hands full. i cant even be sure he will be there for the birth, but hoping he will. i should get an exact time of induction on monday, and should be for friday. wont know what time until its actually scheduled, but they usually do them in the morning unless its a section. i probably wont sleep thursday night so its good its morning.

membas- glad to hear your class went well. it always makes it seem so close and more real when you do something big like that for baby.
 
Tanikit - I like your way of thinking, lol!!! doing it once probably won't hurt :thumbup: I didn't do it, mostly because OH forgot to bring me some home.....but it was probably best anyway that I didn't. I really should stick to the diet after pregnancy as well so I can lose all my weight......
 
Happy birthday Rach! Have a good day.

This was my DDs comment today: "Baby sister, put your clothes on, and your shoes, pack your duckling and MOVE OUT!" - good idea, time to come out little one! It made us all laugh.
 
:cake: Happy Birthday Rach :cake: fx there will be at least one bubba today (KNS)

Tanikit - your DD sounds fab, wonder if your DD2 will pay any attention??

Sorry to everyone I've missed, BH's have definately cranked up a notch today. Some of them are really quite burny in sensation. Also feeling a bit sick today but not like with the sickness bug more like my stomach is so squashed its not coping.

Not saying anything to OH as he will either just stress or run away, and not sure if it will progress into anything or if its just more practicing going on.
 
hi girls

Im off up to the ward, it might be nothing but had some pink watery stuff in my knickers this morning it was not loads to be running down my legs but enough to soak my knickers, and with my low fluids and baby being quiet must go in to be monitored - fingers crossed i come home again but just incase thought id prewarn you incase im not about for a couple days i have a couple numbers so will keep them updated if i have to stay in... hoping he stays put a wee bit longer even though im 37 weeks today i still feel its early!!! lol
 
Fx Shell that if he's ready to come he does so safely, or if not he stays put for a while longer, will be thinking of you.
