Just saw your ticker- tomorrow is your due date, holy cow!  How are you feeling?

Thanks!  I made my ticker for the date the early u/s showed the baby measuring, but my office actually has it as Jan 4!  So at dd's gymnastics today it was fun to see people's faces when they asked when I am due and I answered yesterday haha.

I'm on the fence - I'm achy and I think my hips must have spread again bc my groin feels like I just got off a 3 hr horse ride.  The baby is on my right side, so my right ribs and back and hip hurt.  But I know I am in for a whole different ball game of pain and lack of sleep once he comes.  I can't wait to meet him, but sitting playing car slide with dd this morning I felt like crying about the time I am about to miss out with just her.

I also feel kinda like a first time mom, bc I didn't go in to labor on my own last time - I was induced a week late.  So every twinge or contraction, I'm like "OMG, Is this it?!"

My house is super clean and my freezer is full.  So now I just wait!  The 11th is probably the latest I will have to wait though bc I think the dr will induce me then if I haven't gone at that point.

I feel like this too! My water leaked with DD but I was then induced. In my mind I keep thinking its going to happen the same way this time, when really most people dont have their water break until after they're in labor. And I dont remember having any BH contractions last time or this time so I feel clueless!

Hahaha I am the same way!!  I had no BH last time, a ton this time, and I keep thinking (maybe wishing) my water is going to break any minute. Batty- my water leaked with DD too, I had no idea until they found I had low amniotic fluid during an u/s.  I have an u/s tomorrow am to check fluid levels because I'm paranoid.

JnK, if you go the 11th, we might overlap stays for a few hours lol. You will be discharged as I'm getting to my room :-)

I love the looks people give you when you're overdue. People just about passed out when I told them I was 2 weeks overdue with Thomas!

Can't wait to see all of these new babies!  Best of luck to all of you girls!

Isn't it funny how you doubt yourself? I went into labor on my own, but my first sign was my water breaking - I didn't have contrax until 4ish hours later, but that seemed like a pretty sure sign to me. Now I think, what if it doesn't happen like that again, and I just brush off pains that are really the beginning contrax and then don't call our families to come (from an hour away) until too late? And what would I do with DD?
