If you're 40w and over come in...

...and post!  I need to know I'm not the only one out there not having a baby at 38 weeks. I am not going to consent to an induction until 42 weeks or later even though it's a daily struggle not to just sob my eyes out in a pathetic pity party!

Maybe we can support each other even if it's just "I'm out here too!"

Re: If you're 40w and over come in...

  • I'm 40 wks tomorrow! Not feeling sorry for myself yet, but I am starting to worry that nothing will happen in the next two weeks (because there is nothing going on yet) and I'll have to get induced :(

  • Im 5 days overdue.  I have an appointment tomorrow and if I don't go into labor tonight she will induce me on Thursday.  I am going crazy that she is not here yet
  • I was trying to not get upset about it but I saw my siggy ticker thing that said today was my due date with a happy little exclamation mark and knowing that NOTHING is/has/will happening/en made me burst into tears. Gah Mandy suck it up! I just dread having to go back to work tomorrow and face all those morons and their harassment. I am seriously thinking about sheeting off my cubicle. I already stopped facebooking and answering any texts. JUST COME OUT ALREADY!!!

    No dilation to speak of but my induction is scheduled for Sunday.  DH and I were both over 8lbs, but I was 2 weeks early...I'm nervous about having a huge baby and an unsuccessful induction. 

    Baby Boy Born 3.15.11. 8lb 9oz, 21.75in. 6 month stats: 20lb 11oz (92%tile), 30.12in.(100%tile - who knew it went over 99th? Which means 100% of other 6 month olds are shorter than mine!)

    I am over 40 weeks and I actually just started having contractions tonite! I am thinking it's the real deal, but they aren't consistent enough - yet! I am hanging in there and seeing what happens....hoping and praying : ) If she doesn't come by thursday, I am being induced at 7am thursday morning.  It's the office's policy to induce at 41 weeks.

  • My due date is tomorrow and I've been super depressed today!  I just wish something would happen!  I am going crazy just sitting and waiting!  Every morning when I wake up i'm disappointed that I didn't wake up in the middle of the night in labor.  My next drs. appointment is Friday so if nothing happens by then we will probably start talking induction.

  • I'm still around and am ok with it!  I said from the beginning that I didn't think she'd make her appearance on time but that as long as we got past SS's birthday (last Mon) I was ok with anytime.  I have an appt tomorrow and since I'm overdue I know we'll have to talk induction (my dr office only lets you go to 41 1/2 weeks).  Here's hoping she makes her appearance before then!
  • Me!  We're inducing Wednesday (at 41 weeks) but I really wanted him to come on his own before then!  I was late with my first, and now even later with my 2nd.  With my daughter, my water broke, but I needed Pitocin to get labor going... I'm wondering if my body is even capable of going into labor on its own!  ;)  I've been having contractions for the last two nights, but they haven't turned into labor.  :(  Come on, little buddy!

  • I am over 40w and have an appt tomorrow. I hope I get some good news otherwise I already have my induction to start next monday.
  • I'm 41 weeks today, getting induced on Wednesday and not really too excited about being induced :(.  Tomorrow I'm going to to take a very very long walk, see if that does anything, but thus far I have felt absolutely nothing other than her moving around and being perfectly content with her current state.  I already took my leave from work a week before my due date but I have stopped looking at my cell phone because I'm sick of seeing "Is she here yet?".  Blah, it's good to know my daughter is going to be a stubborn little thing!!!

  • I am 40 weeks and 4 days pregnant.  I have an induction scheduled for Monday morning if she has not made her debut yet.  I am praying that she comes before that.  I would rather not be induced if possible.

  • I am 40 weeks today, but have had intense back pain and lower period like cramps for a while now.  I might call my doctor and see what she says.  So maybe I am going to the hospital, maybe not...

  • well this at least let me know I wasn't the only one and makes me feel better :) It will be fun to read our updates in the next two weeks!

    I don't know what it is but I just have no interest in talking to anyone who's not 40+ weeks pregnant and stopped facebooking, texting, taking calls everything lol! I have a Dr appt Thurs hopefully there's a little progress from the 1cm 50% effaced I was last Thurs. The 4 mile walks are getting old...

  • OK - Technically I am not past due yet. My due date is in 2 days and I haven't had any cervical checks so I have no clue if Im dilated/effaced or anything. I've been having BH contractions here and there but nothing that seemed to be real timeable contractions. 

    All this time, I kept saying I'd probably go early because my first child was born at 36 weeks....now here I am at almost 40 weeks and nothing seems to be going on.  my MIL keeps calling everyday to ask if I've had the baby....as if I would have the baby and not tell her Confused

    My dr offered to sweep my membrane today but I decided to hold off until next week if it comes to that. I'm hoping to avoid getting to that point. Ugh! This is becoming quite frustrating.
