😳😳It's crazy that our precious little bundle will be here so soon! I'm very anxious to meet her ☺️ the last few days I was feeling really crummy and had on and off Braxton hick contractions and was just plain miserable, but thankfully I had a lovely 3 day weekend where I slept and napped A LOT! And feeling a lot more refreshed 😌 getting excited only 3 more weeks until my maternity leave
Anyone else getting anxious as well?! 😊
 
ME! I have been pretty calm my whole pregnancy but now I am anxious!! I delivered both my babies at 37 weeks so I am hoping this one will follow the same pattern. Keep posted!!!
 
How exciting!!! I had my first at 34 weeks so happy I've made it past that point but my other two were born at 38 so I'm hoping this one does as well too!! 😃 it's exciting to be close to the end! And yes for sure will you keep me posted as well too!
 
I know I cannot wait! I am having my 3rd girl! I have a 9 year old and a 6 year old so I guess it's safe to say I am officially starting over lol!! This is my first wity my fiance however he has raised my other 2 for the last almost 6 years! He's wonderful. Of course!! I will keep updated. I see a specialist every weds bc I have gestational diabetes. Next weds I get a growth scan to determine if we will do section at 38 or 39 weeks providing I haven't gone into labor prior to then. My mil seems to think she will be born sometime the week of the 20th. Have to wait and see.
 
Aww 💗 this is mine and my hubby's fourth and we will have two and two 😊 this is also our last so it's all a little bittersweet for me, I'm ready to be done (2 and 2 is perfect 😉) I have a 5 year old daughter and a 3 year old son, and a 18 mo old son (we have a very busy household 😉) so the last few days I've been struggling to keep up and very anxious to meet her but then sad because I won't ever feel the kicks and the hiccups. I've had a very easy pregnancy so far and a bit sad to see it end!
My last day of work is the 25th and would love to have her that weekend! I'm taking 10 weeks off and want to be able to spend as much of that time with her here 💗
Have you had c sections with your others?!
 
Wow four! I signed the paper to have my tubes tied but my fiance doesn't want me to. I don't think I can have 4, I am a little afraid of having 3 but I know my 2 older girls will be a big help. Not much longer to go before maternity leave! Yay congrats enjoy! I am a stay at home mom for now so it's been nice to be able to get things done. I have had 2 c sections so unfortunately I am destined to have c sections forever. Even though I have had 2 I am still super nervous about it.
 
I'm so excited but nervous, I'm 34 weeks and can't believe she be here anytime pretty much. I got my baby shower coming up so got that to look forward to :) and only 3 weeks of work left to :D even though I could do with finishing now as I'm so knackered but I will fight it out :)

Hope you girls are doing well
 
Hi penguin! I know it's hard to believe right. It really goes by fast. When is your baby shower? I had mine last weekend.

Your older kiddos will definitely be a lot of help!! I was ready to be done at 3 (had a horrible pregnancy with my last son) and my hubby wanted to try for one more girl and talked me into one more (not that it took much haha 😉) and we got lucky to have our 2nd little princess ☺️
I'm kinda a stay at home mom I run a home daycare so along with my 3 I'm chasing after 8 more kiddos 😉 so each day is pretty busy and I can definitely start to feel myself slowing down! 😋 but I'm very excited to be able to spend 10 weeks with my babies :) even tho I know it will fly by! But I am very lucky to be able to stay home with my kids :)
I had a dr appt yesterday and he's going to be gone for a week so he checked to see if I was dilating (due to the contractions I had this past weekend) and I am a fingertip dilated and 40% effaced she's head down and he said my cervix wasn't to far posterior ! 😃 hopefully she stays out just a couple more weeks but it was kinda comforting to know she's getting ready and hopefully comes when I plan on her coming 😉 but we know how babies think it's on their terms when they decide to show 😋

Baby showers are always so much fun! :) and yay for being almost done with work too!! I know how you feel when you say ur exhausted every night I go to bed wondering if I will make it haha but it helps to stay busy to pass the time!

That sounds like a job I would like to have! I dread the day I have to job search again.....wow sounds like your getting really close. That's awesome!!! I had a bpp scan and nst today and the contraction monitor looked like hills. I think that means contractions. They weren't painful and they didn't say anything about it. Baby looked good. Next week we have a growth scan to see how much she weighs to schedule delivery. Hope it's only a couple weeks from now. I can't wait to see my little girl!
 
Its definitely a job im thankful for to be able to stay home with my babies while still bringing in some income! And my guess would be that the mountains would be contractions!! 😃 so exciting it's getting so close, I'm getting so excited too it's so much fun thinking of who she will look like 💗
 
I know! I really want to see also. This might sound funny but I am curious because I am white and my fiance is Hispanic so we often wonder if she will be light or dark lol. My other 2 are from a previous marriage and they have blonde hair and green eyes. We shall see!

Wow you sound like me! This is our 3rd but we thought we were done after dd#2 ;) well we weren't haha I have an almost 9 yr old and an almost 6 yr old, this is our first boy!!! I also have GD this time around :/ so I can't wait to be done with that! I still have another 6-7 weeks most likely but yes it definitely feels like we're starting over!

:happydance: hi there! It's so nice to have other ladies to be able to relate to. Congrats on your boy! I can't wait to be done either. All the finger pokes and the diet etc. I have become a little lax with my diet bc of all my cravings but my sugars have all been very good.
 
Hi penguin! I know it's hard to believe right. It really goes by fast. When is your baby shower? I had mine last weekend.

This weekend, I'm very excited now at first I wasn't really looking forward to it as not keen on the attention being on me and feeling pressure to chat to everyone I felt like I was being ungrateful but as it's got closer I'm getting more and more excited and grateful for the effort my family and partner family has put into it and grateful that people have taking time out to come and see me

How was you baby shower ?? :)

That's how I feel when I go to bed wondering if I'm going to wake up for my alarm lol I wake up 2-5 times to pee as it is, I think she think bedtime is the time to play with my bladder haha

How fun!! My first two have the bluest eyes ever from my husband and my youngest has my deep dark brown eyes so we wonder which ones she will have! Genetics are so much fun that way you just never know! 😊
 
Thought I would check in 😊 how's it going ladies??!! It's going ok on this end, I ended up going into labor Friday evening, but didn't progress and labor kinda stalled out, but since I was close enough to term they wouldn't give me anything to stop the contractions 😔 so I was in labor for 10 hrs and had no baby 😔 I'm happy she decided to stay put for a tad bit longer but I'd be lying if I said I didn't get excited to meet our little girl!
 
Oh man that stinks!! I haven't heard of that happening before. Hopefully it will be the real thing sometime soon! I went to the hospital for monitoring today bc of decreased movement and everything ended up being fine. Hopefully it happens soon for all of us.
