@datalover13 wowww!!! Congratulations! Can't wait to hear the details, mama!

This is a direct quote from my midwife after I'd been pushing for two hours with my son and said something silly along the lines of I can't do it/I can't get him out:
"Well, I guess you'll be pregnant forever then." Lol, funnier in retrospect than at the time! (To be fair this sarcasm was in the middle of some really encouraging coaching.)
@kjd291 Hang in there, mama! Your attitude is inspiring because I would be freaking out in your case. Maybe baby will come when your mom is in town.

Congratulations @C25, @EnglishTeacherMama, @newmommyZ, @datalover13, @Happyhiker ! My goodness, there's so many of us! I'm rooting for you @kjd291, I was thinking about you last night, wondering when you were next and if you were in the hospital yourself!
Congratulations @vprod and @datalover13!!!! Both of your 3 week early babes are beautiful!! Hope your recovery goes well for both of you! @datalover13 hope the tests come back with good news & you'll get to hold him again soon!
@c25 Congrats on the arrival of your beautiful baby girl!! Also, can I just say that as a FTM, I felt proud when I read your story and could tell it was a smooth l&d before you even commented on it? Seriously though, so glad Evelyn's entrance into the world was a smooth one for you both!
I am shamefully late for the s/o but also super happy for @datalover13@vprod@newmommyZ@EnglishTeacherMama@cbeanz@Niko1e and @Happyhiker!! On a similar note, I will shamelessly admit that you all are part of the reason I'm late to the congrats game. Thanks to you all, I go a large bulk of my long term sub plans done this week, as well as hospital bag packed, and the finishing touches of the nursery done! Woohoo for early laborers kicking my ass in gear!
Thanks! @dubcompanion yes progressing that quick is so unusual for me! I wasn't expecting it for sure.glad you got all your stuff done and packed.
If anyone is breastfeeding don't forget your feeding pillow like I did! And don't let DH forget his own pillow and blankets..mine was so uncomfortable!
@C25 Congratulations!!!! Sounds like an awesome birth! :-)
@kjd291 you're hilarious! It's true... bc we do.... idk why I thought that I would share that my doula has gone passed 41 weeks with all four of her kiddos!!
Your little lady is just waiting for that date that she wants!
Just wanted to update you guys and let you know that my induction is going well. Very slow but just now starting to have a bit of pain. We started around 9:45 with a dose of cytotec by mouth, had another dose around 12:30 and then started Pitocin around 3:45. They've been slowly turning it up and now I'm having contractions every 3 minutes or so. Only 2cm, 50% and -3, when they checked me at 6pm. I'm happy things are moving slowly and they aren't being super aggressive. Keep us in your prayers!
Prayers @Lexxilou1986 !! Thanks for updating us! I'm glad they are taking it slow and steady for you and letting your body do its thing! Hope you have that babe in your arms soon
So I'm crazy been trying to figure out where the pictures and birth stories were. Didn't see the birth announcements thread at the top. I've been going through this one trying to figure out if my phone was deleting them. Congrats to all the mamas!!! Babies are all beautiful!

Echoing @shines721, you're a rockstar @kjd291 for having such a PMA about being overdue. Hang in there!
@datalover13 Congratulations!!

Just another overly pregnant meme. ((Replace with last nights NEW moon my midwife said brings labor- didn't do crap!!))
