Congrats to all the October babies born in the last 12 days!

I am feeling fantastic emotionally and physically. The anticipation is really starting to build in our house. DH and I cannot wait to hold our LO!  I have contrax every day but nothing painful, some pelvic floor pressure, and every once in awhile (maybe every other day) some sharp crotch and/or back pains.

Emotionally- I am on cloud 9 because I am meeting my little girl at the end of this week!  Induction on 10/16!

Physically- I am feeling pretty rough.  I am having MAJOR pelvic pain and it is painful to move I seriously feel like someone took a baseball bat to the area!  I am hoping that it means that I am making good progress and my induction will go smoothly

Good morning! 

I am feeling very well emotionally.  Physically, it depends on how well I sleep the night before.  I really can't complain- I can manage being uncomfortable and don't have a lot of aches and pains at this point.  But I hate being groggy after a bad night's sleep!

Good morning girls!

Emotionally I feel great. Very excited to meet my little guy.

Physically I am absolutely exhausted & starting to get uncomfortable.

Hello ladies!

Physically, I am feeling ok...I get a little uncomfortable at the end of the day after being on my feet, bending down, and walking around. Night time is starting to get a little uncomfortable for me too...the tossing and turning and up every hour peeing, lol.

Emotionally, I am on cloud nine! I can't WAIT to meet my little girl! I can't believe how close I am!! :-)

Hello!

I am feeling good, but I am exhausted by nighttime after working and keeping up with my almost 4 year old!!! I am hoping for a good night sleep tonight

egankn

There's only 3 of us left that are past our EDD? That's so sad...

Emotionally I am SO tired of this...people calling, texting etc that I haven't had this baby already like it's been so long for them!! My MW will let me go 10 days overdue so I still have 8 days to see if she will come naturally and that seems like forever....

Physically I am having a hard time walking, my back hurts often and I have contractions often just not strong enough to qualify as real ones.

Emotionally I'm doing pretty good, I'm still dealing with the loss of my brother so I still cry almost every day - but it doesn't have anything to do with the baby or pregnancy (except when I think of what my little boy will miss by not meeting his uncle). We're both really excited and can't wait for LO to get here.

Physically I'm mostly good too. I've started not being able to wake up in the mornings the last few days, which sucks. I toss and turn a lot all night, so I guess I'm just still tired in the mornings - ugh. I've had a few episodes of heartburn, which were not fun and I can't really eat very much, I feel awful and like I can't breathe about 30 minutes after I eat something. But overall, I can't complain and haven't been too uncomfortable yet.

 I have my last u/s on Friday, can't wait for one last look at this little guy before we meet him!

Hello 3rd Tri-ers! : )

I'm feeling OK: Tired most days, achy some other days... the evenings are the most trying.  Emotionally, I've never felt better in my life. Even DH said that he's really been enjoying my lack of PMS and emotional "moments" I had pre-pg. : D

QOTD:  Emotionally, fantastic.  I am so excited to be getting so close to meeting Hayden and sharing him with the rest of my friends and family.  We had a wonderful shower this weekend and got almost everything we need including the travel system and PnP.  We are truly blessed.

Physically, so so.  I've been REALLY tired lately, but unable to sleep.  My hips have been hurting like crazy and my reg OB told me it was because he was already head down and moved down into my pelvis.  I have another u/s on Friday to check him out and I'm curious how much he'll weigh.  If he's been growing according to the 1/2lb per week regimate, he should weigh around 6lbs.

Starting last week at my 32wk appt, my reg OB requested that I start coming in 2x/wk for NST's and I have another one today.  I'm secretly terrified that they will find something wrong at one, but would rather know so that we can deal with it than not know and not be able to fix it.

Wow, that got long!  Sorry ladies!!  Happy Columbus Day to all!

KRIST4N

Hi ladies!  Well, physically I am feeling much better, I think I am over whatever sickness/allergy stuff I had.

Emotionally, I go back and forth, work is wearing me out!  My boss is freaking out because we are short handed and he is being a jerk, there is still the flu bug or whatever going around the office, so I have been working from home, but he wants me in the office to train other people.  Anyway, he is stressing me out!!!!

Please add me, EDD 12/30/09, Boy, don't know the name yet.  We will be 29w on Wednesday, although he measures 1 week ahead and I measure 4!  Feeling good physically, aside from the hotflashes that come out of no where and the new sensation at the end of the day where my ribs hurt.  Emotionally, I think I've started nesting, I want to get his room done and clean the house all the time, yet I don't have the energy : )

mrscsanders

Please add me to the check in!   I'll be 28 weeks Wednesday!

 

1/6/10, Girl, Isabella

 

I am feeling really good, both physically and emotionally.  I hope it keeps up.  I am feeling more and more confident about the pregnancy and enjoying it as much as possible.
