Morning ladies I know there's not too many of us left but I thought I'd do a ticker change today!

1. How many weeks/how big is baby [fruit/veggie or via u/s]

38 weeks today! baby is a pumpkin. I had a growth u/s on thursday and baby is very little..considered "almost" IUGR [we are 11%, IUGR is considered 10%]

2. What team are you? Team greeners remaining, what team do you THINK you are?

Team Green! I think we will end up being Team Pink

3. Any progress or signs of labor? Scheduled inductions or c-sections?

Lost a lot of MP yesterday and had an hour of painful contractions, otherwise I feel absolutely normal and awesome [for the 1st time this pregnancy]. I am still 2cm but much more effaced than my last appt. Baby is low, not engaged. I am scheduled for an induction on the 16th [39w1d] because the baby has stopped growing and my fluid levels have steadily dropped over the past 6wks. I could be induced as early as monday though..depends on how the baby looks on U/S and NSTs throughout the week.

4. Overall are you feeling calm about labor starting or anxious for it to start? Are you specifically doing anything to help kickstart things? do you feel ready for baby?

pretty calm, but we have a lot going on between now and the 16th. I don't feel overly anxious to have the baby because we're not ready! nursery not done [or started yet]. I am taking EPO every day but that's more to hopefully soften my cervix so that my induction goes smoother. I bounce on my yoga ball each night to keep/help the baby stay in the right position. After two sunny side up babes I am thrilled to have one facing the right way!

5. GTKY: What is your favorite dessert?

Pumpkin Pie with cool whip! I eat that ish all year round 

have a good weekend!

3. Any progress or signs of labor? Scheduled inductions or c-sections? 50% effaced 2 cm dialated, back pain, cramps - and an induction for my GD set for Thursday!!! Unless she comes on her own over the next 5 days!!!

4. Overall are you feeling calm about labor starting or anxious for it to start? Are you specifically doing anything to help kickstart things? do you feel ready for baby? I'm a bit anxious this time, but I think a lot has to do with going from a family of 3 to a family of 4. Not doing anything special to start things up as I now have an end in sight. I am ready though!!

I WAS feeling really calm about labor the week prior but all of the sudden this week the anxiety hit me!! I am a FTM and just the thought of me being able to hold my baby any day is unbelievable To kick start things we are having sex as much as possible.. which is pretty uncomfortable, dont know how you ladies do it. I am so ready for baby!

1. How many weeks/how big is baby [fruit/veggie or via u/s]  39 weeks, surely a watermelon by now!

2. What team are you? Team greeners remaining, what team do you THINK you are? Team BLUE

3. Any progress or signs of labor? Scheduled inductions or c-sections? 3-4cm dialated, no change since last week and I've had lots of contractions just nothing consistent, he's pretty well camped out - guess I should be grateful he's been in there this long although I'm jealous reading all the birth stories

4. Overall are you feeling calm about labor starting or anxious for it to start? Are you specifically doing anything to help kickstart things? do you feel ready for baby?  Anxious for it to start, as I am ready to be done and meet this guy.  I feel like we're 100% ready as we can be.  So far I've been walking and eating fresh pineapple. 

5. GTKY: What is your favorite dessert?  Chocolate anything!

1. How many weeks/how big is baby [fruit/veggie or via u/s]

40 weeks!  Baby is the size of a pumpkin... mamma feels like the pumpkin that took Cinderella to the ball! 

2. What team are you? Team greeners remaining, what team do you THINK you are? Team green, but I am CERTAIN it's a boy.  We'll see

3. Any progress or signs of labor? Scheduled inductions or c-sections?  

only 1 cm (for the past three weeks) but 80% effaced.  Haven't had any other signs, but my cats have been freaking out and super stressed all day.  One of the kitties woke us up at 5 he was puking so much.    Is it possible they know something I don't?  At the very least the 5am puking gave us a sign of things to come! lol  DH and I just went and bought them some new toys; we are feeling super guilty they are so anxious. 

4. Overall are you feeling calm about labor starting or anxious for it to start? Are you specifically doing anything to help kickstart things? do you feel ready for baby?

Anxious but not in a fearful way.  Just ready to move on to the next phase...  I got some raspberry leaf tea, evening primrose, pineapple, spicy food, and loaded pizza.  So far, all it's done is worsen my heartburn.   I foresee an induction.

5. GTKY: What is your favorite dessert?

creme brulee or ice cream 

have a good weekend!

I'm also starting EPO and RRL tea tonight. Oh and the miles circuit too. Anything I can do prep for labor really. 5. GTKY: What is your favorite dessert?
