3rd Trimester

so depressed now...

I feel like if this baby doesn't get the hint, he's going to be in here forever. Midwives won't do an internal till the 11th (41wks) nor induce till sometime between the 17-21st (during the 42-43 wk mark)... this is sooo not fair. I've already tried everything I can do, and this nesting is driving me nuts - I can only have so many days of crazy house cleaning, baking, cooking, walking, sex, long baths, spicy food, yucky teas... ENOUGH ALREADY!

  • Get that baby out of there!  Watching Friends right now and Monica and Chandler are about to get their babies--at least we didn't have adoption to deal with...if you can, try to enjoy the time before baby comes.  The babe has to come out eventually, right?  Whenever they feel ready to come, we are so ready for them!!!!

    already quite loose, that doesn't seem to be an issue...

  • caster oil seems makes your bowels loose as which causes the rest of your muscles to loosen as well.  Although I heard it kinda sucks to go into labor that way..

  • Wow, they induce late!  Hang in there (although I am sure you are tired of hearing that).  I am hoping you just go on your own...now would be good :)
  • Did you try a foot massage to hit your pressure points?

    Good luck!

  • I know the feeling - we have (had) the same due date.  I know we can't stay pregnant forever but it sort of feels like these guys will never come out.  :(

     

  • Hang in there. It'll happen soon! I know how hard it is though.. DD#1 was 6 days late and I was sure she'd be early (even my OB said he thought she'd be early! grrrr). Anyway, I'll bet baby will come before they think about inducing, especially since it's so late! And if it makes you feel any better, I basically had no progress until I went into labor, so don't worry about that and internals :)
