Pregnancy Info HOME

STEF- yeah im going to be induced next friday, if i make it that long. i just went to target and safeway and noticed that im having the tightness type of contraction every 5-7 min. now do those ones count? you know how they say that b/h are the tighting ones and real contractions hurt ( well at least thats what my bff keeps telling me) and that you count only the painful ones. well im confused what ones to count. but last friday i was 2 cm and 75%effaced and lylee is at -1 so the tightning ones must be doing something right? God i cant wait to hold her in my arms and kiss her little feet and love on her you know? it seems like ive been pregnant for an eternity...... 9 months is a long time.... LOL. well im pooped and need to lay down. ill check in later

JULIA - hope you are feeling better today than yesterday.....Charlibabe - I can feel your pain about the heat - it's been over 100 this whole week - ick and some humidity double ick.....I will check out your smiling face soon....I will try to upload a new photo today...even though I am 37 weeks 6 days.....LOL STEF Yes I am scheduled for my induction Wednesday - I go in on Wednesday night for a 12 hour dose of cervadil and then they will start the pitocin the next day so she will most likely be born on the 26th and I am so excited...LOL...I can't sit still hardly....I would love for her to come earlier....KOLLEEN glad Lylee got with the program and started moving...LOL....wow you are next Friday woo hoo and here I thought that Kendra would beat us all for sure....TIEN - hey girl - I didn't lose my mucus plugs with my last 2 until I was in labor......so it's possible that's what happened to you too....I mean I kept waiting for it to fall out and it never did....yes it sucks about our disasters but you are right at least we band together when something like that happens but I think that has to do with 9/11....Ok girls I am off to my doctors appointment I will check it when I get home! We are all ticking time bombs....TICK TOCK TICK TOCK! LOLOL

Tina, can't wait to hear of your progress! Man, my appt. isn't until Friday which seems like an eternity away :( Question....can extreme stress and anxiety at this stage in the game harm Ava? Today has been horrible with one thing after another happening. Jessie is going through some things too that affect both of us and I'm just an emotional mess. I have checked the h/b 2 times already as I'm so afraid of hurting her....sorry for being such a downer, but I need some advice, rea__surances, whatever right now...

Hey ladies! I was just reading some of your posts and it seems a few of you are due very soon! I just wanted to wish you all the best of luck! I'm not due till July 26 ...:( seems like forever!

Hello ladies! Sorry it has been so long since I last checked in. I have been super busy between work and trying to get everything ready, not to mention Jordan will be turning 1 next month too. My belly is slowly coming along. I havent been check for dilation or anyhting like that. I am only 36 weeks though. I am not too sure when or if aI am even going to get checked. I am having Ely by c-section so I dont know. I am so excited to be having him in less than 3 weeks. My mom is going to get up here on the 5th of July and I am scheduled to go in on the 7th to have him. The only thing I am really dreading is having my brother in law still living with me and trying to deal with him and the 2 kids. My hubby will hopefully tell him to go home or just stay out of my way. Well ladies I am really worn out form work today so I am going to get off but i will check in again in the morning. I hope that everyone is progressing great! HEATHER: Congrats on getting to bring little Nevin home.

hey everyone. its so crazy to think next week we are having babies. =] lol stef your right thats weird. i'm glad and miserable that my sons has stuck in there so long through all these contractions i cant wait to go to the dr tomorrow to find out what is going on in there. lol. hows everyone n everything going? sry not much time to get on here due to the damages here

What does it mean if im getting alot of lower back cramps??? It just started not to long ago but its in my lower back and not feeling so great. I have all of my doctors appts on fridays now so lets see if anything on Friday. im gonna let my dr know i have been having some cramps down below and in my back. Im so ready to have my baby girl. I can wait of course until she is due, just hearing you girls will have your babies by the end of next week is so exciting. I want to hold my Alyssa already :)

Brooklynn has dropped a lot. I am so ready for these next couple weeks...we are all gunna start having our little ones, its so exciting! I can't wait to hear all the stories! I had a little scare today because my blood pressure dropped to 93 over 53...I felt soo yucky. but it is back up now. I can't wait to see your new picture Cors! I'll check in later tonight maybe.

Good morning everyone.. well this week hasnt been a good start.. there is just so much stress in my life that im trying so hard to aviod it.. but any how.. today is my doc. appointment.. hopefully they'll say that ive dilated more.. im really starting to get sad.. and i dont wnat to i dont wanna think of going thru depression again...

Think positive and think of your baby.. If you need to talk we are here for you!!! 37 weeks today for me YAY!!! im so excited. I am so ready if she wants to come early he he

Hi girls, just popping in to see how everyone is doing. Today is a better day so far and things are looking better. I think I was hormonal and feeling kind of b___hy too yesterday. I was talking to my sister and told her how annoyed I feel with going out of the house and EVERYONE I see the only thing they say to me is "you haven't had that baby yet?" "You look like your about to pop!" "When's the baby coming?" and on and on.......then my sister told me I should be happy and that after the baby comes I won't get any more attention so I should enjoy it! I knew she was right and just started bawling! Then I felt so bad complaining because all I've been wanting for the past couple of years was to be pregnant and have a healthy baby and there I was complaining about people asking me when she's coming. I felt HORRIBLE! I guess I just want her here so badly that when people ask I'm like 'don't you think I would like to know when she's coming????" lol......So, that said, I felt really ungrateful and now I'm just trying to enjoy the time I have left with her in my belly (as long as she stays safe in there! ha ha) and try to relax for what is to come. I'm getting a bit nervous now too because it seems like everytime I read a birth story on this board women talk about how horrendous the contractions are until they get an epidural. Agh!

STEF-don't feel that bad hunni- its just the eager stage of pregnancy were we are all fed up with being pregnant & cant wait to met our precious flesh n blood !!!! i know the feeling thats how ive felt for like 3 weeks now especially with all ive been going through DON'T GET SO FRUSTRATED with yourself. your just being a normal hormonal end of pregnancy woman lol. TINA- i put new photos up too; ive dropped MORE AGAIN!

Ladies for my 2 other daughters they had to break my water both times. Does it mean that my water probably wont break on its own and they will have to break it again??

so i went to the doc's today.. no improvement.. seems like i mis understood the nurse last week. I was .5 cm.. and still am.. ugh! and i was 70% Efface last week.. and 90% this week. her head is very low which he said was really good.. but that didnt make me feel better.. im just being really mooody and this news doesnt help.. i dont know what else to do i came home after it bummed i wanted to tell him tht i was sad. but what was he 2 do.. give me the pleasure of taken her out.. No i dont htink so.. i just have to wait now till next week. today im 37weeks.. whoopie.. i feel terrible i feel like an awful selfish person.. this sucks Kendra i think im close to feeling what u feel.. only i dont have contractions i'm sorry.. i hope u improved and u have ur baby soon.

JULIA, don't lose hope yet :) Really a woman can be 3 cm dilated and not have her baby for weeks and another woman can be not even 1cm dilated and have her baby within days! Don't worry as none of these checks tell you when your baby is coming. It could be anytime! Just think each day that that day could be the day.
