I saw that Catrina had started a similar thread on this forum but I hope for her sake she's delivered by now! But there's gotta be more of us out there - I was due July 25th and am getting more uncomfortable every day. I had promised to work up till delivery, but when the due date came and went I just felt depressed and fatigued. Anyone else in the same boat? Do you have induction scheduled yet? I have mine on Wednesday but it feels like a month away. I'm just seeking company in my misery - anyone?

Hi Revel, I saw your name somewhere else on this forum and yes, I think we are in the same boat! Not sure how it is for you, but I never understood what the big deal was to go past the due date, but time is soooo slow. What are you doing to pa__s time?

Hi Revel, Thanks for your invite! It's been another sleepless night but today's the day. Induction!!! Hopefully you have are off to the hospital by now. I'm giving them a call in 30 min or so. I'm scared I'll be there for some time, since I was not even dialated or fully effaced yesterday at my exam. So... lots of books and magazines! Good luck to you!

Hi there, I am also miserable. And I feel so alone over here. It really isnt fair. I was due on July 31st... and for the moment baby seems very content where he is... You 2-Crimson and Revel must have gone to the hospital for your induction, so I must be talking to myself over here... :(

hey guys, if its any consolation, I've just read in a book that a normal pregnancy duration is anything between 37-42 weeks. The 40 week time line is just used as an average as its in between the space of weeks. So just try to think that every baby develops differently and maybe our little ones are just doing what is natural to them and are not overdue at all. Keep your spirits up gals and enjoy your me-time cos it will soon be gone xxx

hey ladies. I too am overdue ( a week tomorrow) Was 4 cm dilated at 35 weeks and my midwife a__sumed I'd only get to 37 weeks approx. At my tuesday appointment I was 5 cm and fully effaced but still no baby (Agghhhh!) Just a__suming I'll be induced in another week now as don't think I'm gonna get any further by myself. Still though ... SO frustrating. Sick of people calling and asking if I'm uncomfortable and when I say yes saying "brill, even more so than yesterday...this must be the day"Just have to keep reminding myself this can only go on another week :-}

Yes , I am in the sameboat. I was due on the 31st and still waiting. I am hopefully going into the hospital today for induction. your right it does seem like a long time and it seems like you notice ever little thing. I just keep checking to make sure she is still moving as expected...
