Hillary, that sounds good! Wow, I can't believe how much she weighs already! I would be a bit scared too, lol ;) OK KENDRA texted just now and said "Def admitted they gave me meds and now getting ready for my epi" -- Sounds like she's having that baby here today! Congrats Kendra!!! :)

Kendra texted that she is 4.5 cm and that she has a bloody show and her water bag is bubbling so it should break soon. I said they should just break it for her so things will progress more :)

OMG, I can't believe that half of us July mommies already have their babies!!!! STEF!!!! Intestinal type cramping is a GREAT sign! The intestine is wrapped around the lower part of the uterus, I read, and the cramping can stimulate contractions. I also read that you can distinguish false labor from the real thing by the contractions feeling like an intestinal upset. I think you are VERY close!!! The whole bowel/intestinal goes together hand in hand with uterine contractions, that's why you start having soft frequent stools. GOOD LUCK. I'm 38 weeks today and had a few painful contractions, but they went away after I ate. So nothing for me, lol.

I wish that things would progress more for me. My doctor is going out of town from around July 2 or 3 to July 7th. My due date is the 13th, and I am so nervous that I will go into labor while she is gone. I wish I would go in this weekend. I don't know if she will stay in my tummy the entire week of the 4th.

Hey Ladies, I talked with you all earlier on in my 1st and 2nd trimesters. Congrats to all the new mommies this week. I am almost 36 weeks and due July 28th. I have felt my baby drop, I can even tell by looking at my belly. It is so much lower than a few weeks ago. I so hope I give birth by 40 weeks., I am so done being pregnant and cannot wait to met my little one!!!! :)

Hi girls! Well back from the doctors and I'm just so disappointed right now I feel like crying. I guess I got my hopes up....she didn't even do the u/s that she told me she was going to do. She checked my cervix and I'm still the freaking 1cm I've been for 3 weeks. No progress so she doesn't want to schedule induction without more signs from my body that it is ready. She told me to come back next Tuesday and she'll check again and do the u/s then. She said she may schedule me for next week but possibly the week after. I about wanted to scream when she said that b/c it's 1. past my due date and 2. will miss my whole sister's visit (she's not been home in 4 years and she will be here next Wed. thru Sunday)....i can't believe it. Sorry for being a gripe, but I'll check in later.

I meant to say she might schedule me for induction next week and then I meant to say "miss my sister's whole visit"...I switched words around. Damn, I can 't even type right now.

I'm so sorry about that Stef. What about having several orgasms? I heard that orgasms will cause you to dialate. (If you have the strength for it that is)
Why is she not doing the ultrasound until tuesday?

Lucky- Hopefully you won't have to be induced. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
Mari- That's great you have felt your baby drop. 36 weeks was around the time I felt my baby drop too. You can breath so much better. But you have to pee like a race horse, and for me it's uncomfortable to sit for a long time, and then walk.
