Hi everyone, Toni how is little Maddie doing now? And how are you adjusting to all the changes in your life? Happyme, good luck with the glucose test, I hope your levels are fine. It is good news that your blood pressure has stabilised. I have had my appointment this morning and my baby has turned head down, yaaaaaayyyyy. I couldn't even tell, this baby is just one big lump lol. Had my strep b test, fingers crossed.
I'm supposed to be on weekly visits now but next Monday is a public holiday here and I'm busy on Wednesday, so I put it off until the following week. I feel well so all is okay. Keep us updated everyone and hope you are all well.

Hi all...I'm still trying to get used to the schedule Maddie has me on, but think I can handle it since it is a lot like the watch rotation I stood when my hubby and I were sailing. The doc thinks that the jaundice may have leveled itself out today, but we are keeping on the biliblanket for a little longer to make sure...we'll see what happens then. Kathy...I'm glad to see that your little one has turned this late in pregancy..she must have heard you talking about the c-section and decided she wanted to try it the other way. lol I hope all went well with your strep b test, but just in case it came back pos (mine did) all it means is that you will need to be started on antibiotics when you go into labor...hopefully you ended up with a neg though. Miraclebaby, sounds like all is going well with you and your little one, do you have everything readdy in case she decides to come early? Happy Me...I also had to take the 3 hour glucole test (my 1 hour came back high too). The good news is that the 3 hour test normally proves the 1 hour test to be off. I'll be watching to see how things are going with everyone...I can't wait to see the birth announcements, but try to keep them in as long as you can...lol

Wow! It seems as if everyone is doing great!
Toni - thanks for the info on your glucole testing. It makes me feel more at ease (if there is such a thing these days!)
I have one more visit at the two week interval and then I start the weekly ones..
Everyone, take care and rub / pat your bellies for me!

Isn't it amazing, we're really down to counting days now, not weeks. I've only got 22 days to go!!!!! I guess it really means that we could all go at any time, as Toni has proven. Miraclebaby, let us know how you go at your appt Thurs. They do not do internals here until we are actually in labour. How often do they check your cervix?

Hi guys, just got home from the doc. and it was hopeful, I had my first internal. Nothing happening and next week I get a sonogram to check size of the baby because I am measuring big. I also told him that my husband is traveling out of state back and forth alot as we are moving after the baby is born, and he said don't lose stress over it "I will enduce you and we will pick a date and your husabnd can be here, because right now its risky if he could get a flight home to catch the labor. I am so excited. Also, my family is all out of state as well and now maybe they can plan too. I know there are risk involved and more painful, but the thought of my husband not being there makes me sick. He got a promotion and we accepted it. Anyways thats all with me, let me know how everyone else is doing. Oh and by the way the internal actually hurt a little and my doc said honey wait till labor , if this hurts you. I must not have a high pain tolerance. see you . Oh, and reality is sinking in now.

Hi everyone, it's been very quiet on this board during the last week, what's happening with you all? Miraclebaby....OMG not long now....good luck!!! I hope all goes well for you, and we'll be waiting to hear your happy news. How are you doing at the moment? I'm starting to get a bit anxious, but the good news is that the strepb came back negative this time, I'm really pleased about that. Waiting, waiting......

Wow, today is Miraclebaby's induction date! I am so excited for her! Kathy -- have you had any success yet? I am just plugging along, waiting for my time. My hubby and I finished our Lamaze cla__ses and now we are in a holding patern. Seems like everything is going well, but I am exhausted all the time (with the heat and humidity.) Hope all is well with our group...

Hi girls, who's still around here? Happyme, I had an appointment today and the baby is engaged, so any time now. I'm due Friday. I have sciatica, which is really painful down one leg, so I'm not a lot of fun at the moment with chasing two little kids around already. I wonder how miraclebaby went????? Good luck

Just wanted to see how everyone else is doing... I am still just waiting and waiting and waiting. I did have a sonogram yesterday and the baby looked great! They estimate that she weighs 6 lbs 9 oz at this time and can arrive anytime around July 19th! There is a full moon about a week before, so I am hoping, hoping, hoping. I really long for the days that I could pick stuff up off the floor - and see where I am shaving! lol.. Good luck. Hoping to hear from everyone soon.

I can hardly wait to see how all went with miraclebaby!! Kathy, any day now for you....good luck. Happy Me, I got a good laugh about your "seeing where you are shaving" comment...I felt the same way! It seems really strange now that I am almost back to my old self. Even though I have the little one to show for it, I've almost forgotten that I was even pregnant a little over a month ago! Everything is going well with Maddie. She's been working on her neck muscles by lifting her head up to look at me and the hubby when she's laying on our chests....I'm so in love with her.

Toni, so cute to hear you say how in love with Maddie you are, there's just no other love like it is there? It still amazes me that we can create something so perfect. Happy Me, not long now, and bub sounds like a good size already. Hope you're coping with the heat and humidity, we're in the middle of winter here. I'm due Sunday apparently by the early dating scan but Friday by my dates, so here I wait. Either way only a matter of days.

Hi ladies, I did it!!!! We have a bouncing baby boy, Liam Joseph :-)))) He was born Monday morning, 8lb 3oz, 21inches. I went into labor at 8pm sunday night and went to the hospital at 3am, and he was born at 8am. All went well, yay for epidurals. He's a beaut bub, eats, sleeps and poos and that's it at this stage. His big brother is besotted with him, as are we, and his big sister is a little nonplussed I think at this stage. Miraclebaby, where are you? Tell us the good news. Good luck Happy Me, I'll be thinking of you around the 19th.
