Pregnant after 35

Getting antsy. Anyone else?

We're due in 3 days and although I feel fantastic and enjoy being pregnant I'm getting antsy! Plus, I went off work early (just in case) and cannot collect E.I. until he/she is born. Anyone else out there due this coming week and is anxious? Planning on getting induced or wait it out?

Re: Getting antsy. Anyone else?

  • I still have about 7 weeks to go, and I'm very anxious. This is my fourth baby, but childbirth hasn't been the same for them all. My third child was a pretty easy delivery...two pushes and she was out. I was induced for all of mine on the day of expectancy because they were so big and the doctor didn't want me to go over. You'll be fine. The thought of being a mother and how will I do gets you antsy too. Best wishes to you.

  • I have a scheduled C section on 10/24 and am so antsy. I've been on bedrest since 23 weeks and cannot wait to meet my little sweethearts!

  • Right now we are 6 weeks away from induction and I am good with waiting, but as I get more uncomfortable and short on patience with others, I am wishing I could start my leave earlier.... I may tell them that I am working from home in November until my induction on the 18th... Tired of stairs, not being able to control temp, and just being restricted to my desk.... Plus I just am easily annoyed right now. Not proud of it, just factual. So I am ready for the time away from the office but want LO to bake as long as possible.
  • I'm looking at possibly being induced around the 18th as well. I bounce back and forth between not wanting this amazing experience to be over yet and feeling so uncomfortable that I'm just ready to get it over with. I'm guessing these are pretty normal feelings at this point in 3rd tri. :)

  • I'm due the 28th but feeling like this one is going to come earlier. He dropped a lot over the past two weeks (my other kids never dropped). Hoping to make it to next week as I'll be 38 weeks.

  • I'm about 8 weeks out from my third c-section.  As much as I'd like my pelvic pain to be gone, I'm not anywhere near ready for this baby to be outside yet.

  • Update - Scheduled C section for 10/15 now as my twins are running out of room and my poor body is not expanding enough. Can't wait to meet them!
