So anxious for #3...

Its really strange. ?I don't remember having so much anticipation for my first two... ?But this one.. ugh! ?I'm obsessed. ?Every time I feel a twinge or a contraction.. I want to start timing it. ?I have no idea why I'm feeling so anxious. ?I'm a bit more uncomfortable this pregnancy, but I'm driving myself crazy. ?I was one week early with DD1 and 2 weeks early with DD2. ?I just keep thinking I better stop all this anxious thinking or this baby won't get here until after my due date and I might just be a crazy lady by then!!

Re: So anxious for #3...

  • I was that way too.  With DD, I was scared.  With DS, I was calm.  I had an induction date, somehow I knew I'd made it (despite being 4cm at my last appt) and 5cm when I arrived for that induction with no contractions.  With DS2, I had an induction date, I knew I wasn't going to make it and I had no progress (2cm, 70%) the appt before...

  • I hear ya!  Erin came on her due date, and I was just anxious to meet her.  Connor came at 37w4d, and his early arrival took me off guard.  I was prepared to go early with Kate, and got a little impatient (and really nervous b/c of my history of precipitous labor!) when Kate didn't come until 38w5d.  There's so much more to have prepared when you have little ones at home!  Good luck...I hope everything goes smoothly for you!
  • thanks for your thoughts... now if only my other two would take their naps right now i could take a nap too and forget all about this one for a little bit!!
