Pregnant after 35

Wow this low pressure is getting annoying..

.. okay I'm just 7 1/2 mos and I *really* don't remember this being as prevalent the first time around.     It's like she's going to come right out - and feels SO low.  As if she's sitting right on my cervix.   Bizarre.   I have a 32 week ultrasound in a week and a half, and had an appt on Tuesday, so I don't feel worried, but i'm officially waddling.  

... and I still have TWO MOS TO GO!  good god!   

I have money on me going early.   I'm due on May 17th, but we're scheduling the section for the 10th, and I have the 2nd stuck in my head.   I'll start a pool closer to the end of April.   Anyone want in??  LOL!

  • Awwww... Christine... ((((HUGS))))

    Hang in there... you'll make it through the next two months (or less).

    But after reading your post, I think I'm nuts to have bought tickets to see Eric Clapton & Steve Winwood in June?I'll be 31w6d the night of the concert. LOL!

    And I really want to meet you IRL.  We need a NJ AMA luncheon. Smile

  • Good Morning Ladies,

    I've never posted here before mostly lurk, not sure why but I just wanted to mention to Christine that everytime I see her daughter's birthday cake I literally drool at my desk.  Your daughter is beautiful btw.

     

     

  • LOL - if it helps, the cake didn't taste so good.... :)

    Lesley- I'm done performing on the 22nd of this month and am not working again until after baby shows up... maybe we can do a lunch after that???

  • Hey Christine-

    I felt a lot more pressure with my second than I did the first.  I could have sworn he was going to pop out at any moment.  I don't think they go up as high as the first do or something.  Not sure, but it was pretty uncomfortable.  I was positive that I would give birth at 37 weeks, but he was good and stayed in there until my c/s at 39 weeks.

    Hope you get more comfortable!

  • I also feel a lot more pressure with my second than I did with my Maggie - especially when I'm out for my daily walk.

    BTW, I'm jealous of how much hair your Maggie has. My Maggie has very fine hair that looks like straw when she wakes up in the morning. It does go below her ears, but that's about it.

  • I could have written this post b/c I am feeling the exact same way this time around.  I was hoping that May 31st was going to be my last day of work (my EDD is June 12th) but now I'm thinking that I'm not going to make it that far either.
  • Thanks ladies... 

    First- June 12th is a great day to have a baby.... my Mom thought so :)   (though watch out.   We Gemini's are a handful!)

    Second- really happy to hear that it's not just me, and this is normal.    I'm still packing a bag for the hospital this coming weekend and putting it in the closet.   This just feels so weird.

     Third - I'M jealous of my Maggie's hair.   It's insanely gorgeous and it was long enough to actually put into one ponytail in the back today... where's my little girl!?
