  • Weeks/Fruit? 38/pumpkin... wow, that sounds HUGE

    Appointments? Last regular weekly OB appt on Monday and then we're "playing it by ear" from there according to my docs.

    How are you feeling? Not bad but definitely getting wiped out easily, which is frustrating when I'm trying to clean every visible surface 24/7 ;) lots of contractions but nothing consistent, lots of heartburn, terrible carpal tunnel, and swollen feet. Yay!

    Questions? My OB suggested stripping my membranes at 39 weeks which I think I'll take her up on... just not sure what to expect or how quickly labor could start afterwards if I do it.

    GTKY: What are your father's day plans? Are you doing anything special for your SO? If this is their first father's day, how are you celebrating? We are celebrating tonight because my H is taking his son (my stepson) to a theme park tomorrow and I won't really see him much. I got him a fancy scale that measures his bone mass, water mass, body fat % etc in addition to weight and syncs to his phone. He loves tracking his "stats" so I'm sure he will love it. I also got him a cute key chain with his son's and our LO's names engraved on it. I will make him a special dinner too.

    Appointments?  June 18
    How are you feeling?  Fine, but ready for baby #2 to get here - our first son was born at 38 weeks, 2 days, so it will be interesting to see when this one decides to come. 
    Questions?  None

    GTKY: What are your father's day plans? Are you doing anything special for your SO? If this is their first father's day, how are you celebrating?  Not really - we may go out for lunch or dinner, but otherwise, it will be a low key kind of day.

  • Weeks/Fruit? 38 weeks / pumpkin

    Appointments? Not until Thursday (which will technically be my 39 week appointment)

    How are you feeling? Overall okay but have all the usual complaints. This weeks big one is insomnia! So out of character for me since I am usually the kind of person who can sleep anywhere at anytime. Just when I am actually trying to rest up ahead of baby Noah's arrival...

    Questions? Actually trying my hardest to stay pregnant this week (my husband has a potentially important work week ahead). This makes us almost certain baby will come this week! So while everyone is trying to induce labor I am: avoiding intercourse, avoiding activity, eating bland foods, etc. Any other ideas on how to stay pregnant at term are appreciated!

    We decided not to officially "do" Father's Day this year. Next year I'll go all-out though!
  • Hey Saturday ladies! Just stopping by to say hello and let you know my baby boy was born on wed! Graham is the new love of our life and DH and I are so happy and a bit tired lol. I am working on writing my birth story and will post soon. Good luck to you all and hang in there! You are all up soon :)

  • Congrats @lola4411‌ ...so happy for you and your family!
  • Congrats @lola4411!! I can't wait to hear how it all went for you and if all the running and exercise helped with labor at all!

    @lizardbreath14 cervix checks were always more painful with a woman doing it. Their hands were smaller and they had longer nails on top of that. Labor never really felt "pokey" for me but it hurt-it was just intense pressure down there, it felt better when I would push through it. Good luck!


    40 weeks/jackfruit

    Next appt: Monday @ 8am

    I'm feeling ok. Just exhausted and a heavy pain/pressure down there.

    No questions.

    Today we are going to a really pretty/secluded creek where you can jump off of the rocks into the water. We'll have a bbq there as well and we're bringing our neighbors who will love it. This is our 3rd baby and DH is excited and already enjoying his morning being home with us.

  • I am so late this week.  After hoping and praying LO would arrive on her EDD, I finally had to realize this was not her timetable.

    Weeks/Fruit?  40/Jackfruit
    Appointments?  NST on Tuesday and we'll discuss options
    How are you feeling?  This weekend I was fine.  Cramping started Sunday night.
    Questions?  None

    GTKY: What are your father's day plans? Are you doing anything special for your SO? If this is their first father's day, how are you celebrating?  I was really hoping LO would be here to celebrate.  So, the card from her to her daddy will be saved until next year.  Since we celebrated Mother's Day we had to celebrate Father's Day.  I made dinner and bought DH a gift that he picked out.  His daddy t-shirt is now saved as a hospital gift.
