Still very pregnant!! I don't want to have a July baby (

Kresla

I don't want a July 4th baby. I want my baby to have its own day

Only 4 days past DD and I can't wait for LO to get here the pressure on my bladder is making me feel like an insane person

Still pregnant...I'm so over this. I didn't want a July baby.

Addelie

I'm still pregnant - 40+6 and strumming my fingers... Sweep booked for tomorrow so hopefully things may start to happen after that!

Kresla

I keep debating if I want this baby this weekend or if I want this baby to hold off until Monday. I want my maternity leave to start which means I need to go into labor for that. However, I also want my OB doctor to deliver which means waiting until Monday.

And I know I don't have a choice but if I did, I don't know what I would want.

I was hoping my girl wouldn't be a Fourth of July baby because I fear her friends will always be on vacation or busy on her bday but I suppose it wouldn't be too bad. I was hoping to avoid July mostly because all the new residents begin at hospitals. I didn't wanna be the lady requesting no residents but I might have to

I feel the EXACT same way! Everyone thinks it would be so cute because there would be fireworks. NO THANK YOU! I want my kid to have their own birthday... (I know there are far bigger worries)

I Love to have a 4th of July baby! Im always off work, it's my favorite holiday, and we always BBQ. but inducing on the 2nd, so no go.

40 +3 here. Although I am getting induced on Tuesday if he hasn't come yet.

brittpalo

I was due June 23...I'm still pregnant and its June 27. I'm so annoyed with constant texts, phone calls, social media asking where the baby is!! It's nice and thoughtful but I'm over it. I don't want to be induced, want as natural as possible. We shall see!

Kresla

@doubleb80 I agree. I don't mind family asking or close friends. What I hate are the questions from all the other people. I also hate the "Still pregnant?" when people see me. It's like, "Duh, look at my belly!".

Jconsilio23

I feel the same way! The constant texts are nice and thoughtful but I am just annoyed. I'm 40+3 so we'l  see what my 41 week appointment brings on Wednesday. Until then it's just a waiting game...

jasd33

40 +5 and I'm feeling like an insane person unable to deal with the constant bladder pressure and the pressure of everyone asking where the baby is and why hasn't it come yet BEATS ME getting induced Monday if LO doesn't make a debut before then!

meandcleyton

Feel the same way. Was due today and everyone is driving me crazy about when she's going to come. I hope soon because I'm already feeling miserable. If she doesn't come by my Monday appointment I will be induced by the end of the week. Ready to meet my little girl!

LolaMarley23

41+4 with two inductions cancelled today... Definitely annoyed.

Kresla

@Steph0727 That's no fun! Especially when you are already so overdue!

almakie

Due date +2 unfortunately the only time they induce you in Australia is when your due date +14 or the baby or mum is sick, so with both of us being perfectly healthy it looks like I'll be now counting down days until induction.

My SO and I love America so we'd love to have a Fourth of July baby. My mum is Canadian, so she's hoping for July 1st baby (Canada day)

lauraf314

Let's hope she likes to be prompt, yes?

jasd33

Contractions have been 4-5 minutes apart for an hour and a half now I think this might be it but we are staying home for a while since we live less than 10 minutes from the hospital

Yay!! So happy for you!! Keep us updated!!!

Lost my mucus plug today, I know a little tmi but at least it shows LO isn't staying in there forever!

I'm due on the 30 but feel like I will be going into July. I've had some Braxton hicks and some lower back pains, but they didn't progress any further. I have an appointment tomorrow so I'll probably be talking to my doctor about what will happen next.

I am due tomorrow (29th) hoping baby comes soon but my contractions have been all over the place. Feel like I'm the last one hanging on by a thread. So wishing to see my little peanut.

I was due yesterday & I am so ready!

same thing happened for me today, watched the app i have count down from 30 seconds to 0, i was hoping for a ding at the end and then the fun to start but nope.

HisSunshineLove

40+1 today. Looking forward to my doc appointment this afternoon to get the plan. Can't wait!

BNHolmes86

40 + 3 and quite impatient but also terrified of labor. I'm so excited to meet my little handsome. It's also really nice seeing how many of you are in the same boat as me.

surfingmama

40 + 2 and wide awake at 430 am. I'm feeling good during the day so it hasn't been too bad. I kinda hope I deliver July 1. No one will remember june 29 bday.

Lol today is my due date! I am perfectly fine with today being the birthdate!!! Any day now will do! Please!!!

lachanelcherie3

41+1 today. Being induced tomorrow! I am so ready to have him!

Jconsilio23

I feel like everyone really wants to be induced! Am I the only one who doesn't want that, even if it means waiting until 42 weeks, as long as doc says it's okay? I just want the best shot at a non-epi birth and as little to no drugs as possible. In the moment, who knows what will happen but I don't like the idea of being on pitocin for hours. Anyone else feel this way? I am 40+5 today.

I am teeter tottering on this one. I definitely do not want to be induced but I also don't want to be pregnant for another two weeks!! I'm just hoping baby will make his way quick and natural!

Due date is today, doctors appt on Thursday if nothing happens before then. I hope something happens soon. I am so ready to meet little one.

Addelie

@Jconsilio23 i'm with you. I'm 41+2 today - booked for induction via a pessary at 41+5 but i may push that back to 42. I really don't want to be induced.

surfingmama

I agree! My doctor said they will assess me in Thursday and I can get induced that morning if I choose. I'm with you girls, I don't think that's how I want my labor to go. Im planning on getting the epidural but I'd rather have labor begin on its own. My due date was Saturday so we'll see.

Full moon on Wednesday !!! Keep that in mind girls !

I'm currently 40+2 days. I'm seeing the Dr tomorrow and discussing my options. I have been measuring 37 fundal height since 37 weeks and I'm not dilating more than 1 cm and zero effacement. I had a textbook pregnancy and delivery with my first, but this time is completely d
ifferent all the way around.
