3rd Trimester

any other elders not getting impatient?

the idea of this kid coming tomorrow freaks me out way more than the idea of having another 2-3 weeks to go... LOL

which reminds me-  must do laundry, finish packing bag, and set up guest room for guests (my parents) to stay by tomorrow or so so that if I do go early, things are set :)

Re: any other elders not getting impatient?

  • Me.  If he comes early, fine, but I'd prefer he wait until closer to his "scheduled" time.  Hahha.  I know the odds of him being born on (or even within a day of his EDD) are pretty slim, but that is what I'm aiming for.

    I figure I have at least two weeks to go.

  • I actually wasn't until today. I was not able to sleep last night, only got about 2.5 hrs. I am so over being uncomfortable now! Until today though I was fine and the thought that LO could arrive any day was overwhelming.

  • Can't say I agree. I'm ready to be done. This weekend would be greaaaaaat.

     

  • I work under the assumption that he can come any day but I know he will definately be here by the 4th. So that's a little freaky.
  • I am ready whenever he is!

  • i wasn't impatient before today. but after a weekend of awful swelling, heartburn and not being able to sleep i'm over it now. thought i'd be more than happy for him to come the week of his due date but now i'm praying he comes earlier.

  • I'm not impatient just really excited to meet little one
  • Not me!  I'd LOVE to cook for another 3 weeks... I pray for it every day. I love being pregnant, despite the aches/pains, etc.... I love feeling my babies inside of me... and i want to enjoy every last minute of it - esp since this is the last pregnancy I plan to have.

    I look forward to meeting the boys- but also want to savor every minute as a family of 3, every minute I get to spend with my son as an only child getting all the attention... every minute of good sleep, too :)

  • I'm not impatient by any means, but I was feeling like you up until this weekend. I visited with my friend who I've gone through my whole pregnancy with. She had her little guy last Wednesday and I got to meet him on Friday.  Something about holding him helped me relax and realize I could do this.  Now I'm just excited.

    Get all your stuff done and you'll feel a lot better!  Don't worry, totally normal!

  • I'm ready to meet my little boy, but I am OK with staying pregnant as long as he needs to stay in there.  I think it helps that I know that the longest I possibly still have to go is two weeks.
  • I didn't get impatient until this week! Now I'm ready for sure!
  • I'm not an elder, but I'm really, really hoping that my LO doesn't arrive before the EDD.  I have waaaay too much to do between now and then.  I compare it to having a dinner party on a day that you have to work - you're rushing home from the office, and although you're excited for the party, you're secretly hoping all of the guests arrive late. 

  • Nope. I'm hateful-pissy lately. I'm so ready to be done.

    Share some of your patience with me? :)

    Nope, I'm over it. I feel like I've been pg forever. I think that's what 10wks (24-34wk) of bedrest does to you through. Everything is done and I'm ready to not hurt 24-7.

     This.  And in the grand scheme of things, 2 weeks is nothing...

  • not really impatient...just anxious.  The list of things to do is still long.  We still have to put things together.  DH opened our pool, did a TON of yard work, and this morning he was up early to work on pouring concrete and fixing our sidewalk before he went to work.  He hasn't really been all about putting baby gear together.  Last night we did the bassinet! 

    I just want to get through this last week at work with minimal issues and then I can relax a bit.  I will have more time to do everything I need to do!

  • Yeah, I'm fine. If I weren't getting induced in 2 days, I think I could manage for a couple more weeks. Feeling better at the end than at the beginning of 3rd tri.
