  • My latest update!

    My doctor checked me today and said I'm 50% effaced, but not even a fingertip dialated yet. She has decided that if I don't go on my own by the 19th (my due date), she wants to put me in on the 21st for Cervadil at 8pm and then at 7am on the 22nd I'll get pitocin for an induction. Soooo unless this baby decides to come on his own, I'll be in the hospital on Thanksgiving.


    Anyway, the end is very near now! It's very overwhelming but very exciting.

        That baby may come on his own yet! I had been dilated at 1cm 5 days before my due date and NO contractions whatsoever. My doctor was pretty sure the baby was going to be late, but my baby was right on time!

        Congrats!

            how are you doing?

            I'm doing very well 2big. I'm to the point where I'm having some trouble sleeping, and so I'm tired a lot, but I'm still doing well. I just got over a bad cold a few days ago so I've felt much better this week.

            I'm getting a bit of cabin fever. I've been on vacation from work for the last 2.5 weeks. I got back on Saturday for 1 day, but then start maternity leave on Monday.


            That baby may come on his own yet! I had been dilated at 1cm 5 days before my due date and NO contractions whatsoever. My doctor was pretty sure the baby was going to be late, but my baby was right on time!
            I sure hope he does. I'm going to start doing lots of squats on Sunday (they're supposed to help get the baby engaged). I'm also going to get some evening primrose oil and red raspberry leaf tea since both of those are supposed to help. I really don't want to have to be induced. I just hope he doesn't decide to come between now and Saturday or it'll mess up my vacation time.

                              I'd love it to happen on its own but.....

                              We decided to go see Harry Potter yesterday. I went and bought tickets for the 2pm show. DHgets home, showers, and gets ready. We leave because we planned on eating lunch first. While we were driving there I decided I wasn't hungry yet. So we pulled into the theater parking lot and decided we'd go browse Bed, Bath, and Beyond for a half hour before we got our seats at the movie.

                              As we're walking across the parking lot, DH steps over a pothole. I didn't see it, and he didn't think to warn me to be careful. Next thing you know I fall face first on the lovely parking lot of the theater. I twisted my ankle pretty badly, scraped up my left elbow pretty good, and fell onto my stomach. DH went and got a refund for our tickets so that we could rush to L and D to make sure the baby was ok.

                              The nurse asked me on the phone when I'm due, I say tomorrow. All she could say was "Oh jeeze". We made the 35 minute trip to the hospital in about 20 minutes lol. They put me on the monitor and said the baby looked wonderful. The nurse said its normal after a fall to feel a bit crampy, which I do.

                              Soooo with my bum ankle I can't go walking to get things rolling. Trust me...I really want to.

                              In the past week or so I've walked, did squats, taking evening primrose oil, nipple stimulation, sex. Anything I've even heard works...none of it has done anything though.

                              I think he's decided he's content where he's at, so he's gonna have to be evicted LOL.
