Anxious about not knowing WHEN!

MegW25

Hey everyone! I joined back in September, but only posted once... I am due Dec 09.. Hello to all again! Yesterday was my last day of work.. so now I feel like I will have more time to chat! And of course, get ALL the stuff ready for baby that is not done yet... I feel like there is so much to do!!!

Anyway... I have my 37 week visit this afternoon. SO excited! Hope to find out something new and exciting! 

Is anyone besides me very anxious not knowing WHEN you will go into labor and/or your water will break?! I am freaking out about that! It is CRAZY to me that it could be ANY time now for me!! I just want to finish the nursery, pack my bag (still haven't done), finalize a name (still no name!!) , and clean up the house!!

Congrats to all Mommy's who have had November babies!

I'm 37 weeks on Sunday (Due date is December 11) and I am soooooo anxious too!

.I dont even know what to do with myself. I try not to think about it 24/7 but i do. Every time i feel wet or anything i run to the bathroom and check. Everytime i have a BH i think lets start timing because im just so excited to see if its the real thing.

 This! I do the same thing about running to the bathroom to check! I have read a LOT on here that ladies whose water did break on their own.. it happened in the middle of the night. So every time I wake up to pee in the middle of the night (which is like 20 times), I freak out thinking my water is just going to break right there on the floor!

I'm anxious... But I do have an end date.  I'm due the 2nd...14 days!!   I know I could be late, I'm banking on it actually... but I also know my Dr will induce the 9th if she's not already here.  So at least I have that little piece of mind.

My bag is still not packed.  I have been off work all week and cleaned all week... I still have a little bit to do, which I will finish this weekend then be in relax mode until she gets here.  I REALLY don't want to wait until the 9th to see her.

Good luck to all... and relax, we'll all meet our precious little ones soon!

I'm due 12/9 as well... if I make it that far! I am very anxious especially because they are monitoring LO's size because they fear he may be "too big". Everything at home is done though so that makes it a lot better for me... now I just need a outside baby

I am definitely getting antsy and excited. I can't wait to meet her! I absolutely pay close attention to every BH contractions and all discharge.

I just had my 37 week appointment today. My doctor didn't give me a percent, but I did find out that last week I was 20% effaced. This week we are softer, but no dilation, and her head is right there. We're moving right along!

You could definitely say I'm nervous about not knowing when...especially since I have all sorts of company coming over for a belated thanksgiving dinner  just a few days before my due date (this was my husbands idea...he set this up without asking me and believe me is he in trouble!!!)    Everybody is hoping I'll go into labor while they're here visiting and I'm hoping the complete opposite!  I do NOT want to have this baby when I have a house full of people.  I am still so PO'd at my husband for setting up this nonsense!

I have my 37 week appt today too... soo excited for it! I am due the 9th as well, and today I'm sure we will talk about what to do if he is late... my Dr office usually doesn't like to go past 41 weeks, so probably induce the 16th if he isn't here by then. I can't imagine he will wait that long though!! Especially with him measuring about a week 1/2 ahead the whole time!

We're almost there!!

Not knowing drives me nuts, too.  I want labor to come naturally, but I also want a set date.  Especially being due end of the month/year, I could easily have the baby half way into January!  Oh well.

I am very OCD and I was doing well with not knowing when the baby is going to come, but now that it's only 41 days away I can't stand not knowing when he's going to come. I guess I will just have to deal with it, but it's still frustrating.

I had my 37 week on checkup on Friday and she said that I'm soft but no dilation... sigh... I was hoping for some dilation... :[

21 more days until December 11, 2011. I'm just so ready...
