  • EDD/How far along?  9/7, 39wHow have you been feeling? I have my moments--some days I don't feel too bad since I'm done with work now and have been doing a lot of relaxing.  Other days I feel pretty poopy.Appt updates? Labor progress?  Appt today shows 1cm dilated, 80% effaced, -3 station.  Doc is thinking she will come right around my due date next week.QOTW: If you are having a girl, will you pierce her ears as an infant?  Probably not--I had mine pierced when I was a baby, but somehow they closed and I ended up getting them again as a small child and they got infected.  So I think I actually got them done 3 times.  I will probably just wait until she is old enough to ask for them.  But I do have her 1st pair of diamond earrings :)  My brother got me a pair for my 21st b-day (they are super teeny) so I saved them for my 1st daughter.

    How have you been feeling?  TIRED, I'm consistently up for 3 random hours in the night every night - going to try some Benedryl tonight.  Having random contractions and cramping which is great news. 

    Appt updates? Labor progress?  I just posted about it but the perinat0e is concerned about my blood pressure and I had some protein in my urine yesterday so I'm doing the 24-hour test today.  Good news is I'm 38 weeks so if I am getting pre-e baby is safe to come now.  Last MW appt was last week and I was 2cm dialated, 70% effaced and between a -1 & -2 station.  Have another MW appt this week so hopefully she will check me again and maybe strip my membranes.  With these new blood pressure problems, I would really like to go into labor naturally before they decide to induce (if that is what they decide).

    QOTW: If you are having a boy, have you decided about circumcision?  If you are having a girl, will you pierce her ears as an infant?  I'm just like Shanna - had my ears pierced like 3 times in my life and it all started when I was little.  I'll probably wait until she is starts asking for it and save it for a gift for a bday or holiday (seems like that would be much less expensive then buying some sort of electronic device...Indifferent

  • EDD/How far along? 37 weeks 1 day/ Sept 20ish
    How have you been feeling? I caught a cold last Friday and could barely breathe until today.
    Appt updates? Labor progress? No dilation, but cervix is soft and baby is at -1 station. Doulas were here for a pre-natal appointment on Monday evening. I mentioned having BH, but was corrected. Apparently those are contractions. They were happening mostly in the evenings, but are now taking place throughout today. I also have soft stools. Doulas say to look for blood and timed contractions picking up within the next week. Yikes!

    No circumcision for our baby boy. Mike and I made the decision after doing extensive research and speaking to the family doctor. We feel good about the decision.

    Go September Mamas!

    How have you been feeling? Pretty good overall - just huge and exhausted, I'm very ready to meet him. Unfortunately no contractions, which has me discouraged. I just wish that my body would do something to get things moving.

    Appt updates? Labor progress? As of our appt on Monday, we've made no progress Sad I know that means absolutely nothing, but something would have been nice. Either way, I'll be induced on my due date if he doesn't decide to make his appearance on his own before then... but I would much rather he did his own thing *sigh*

    QOTW: If you're having a boy, have you decided about circumcision? Yes, he will be circumsized.

  • EDD/How far along? Sept 9th/38w5d (whoa, 38w5d is so weird to see)

    How have you been feeling? Good! Aside from not sleeping anymore. I have quite a bit of pain, pressure and soreness in my pelvis and groin though. It sometimes feels like LO is about to fall out.

    Appt updates? Labor progress? I have an appt tomorrow morning, but last Wednesday I was 4-5 cm dilated, cervix thinned out and she could feel the head and bag of waters.

    QOTW: If you are having a boy, have you decided about circumcision?  If you are having a girl, will you pierce her ears as an infant?  (I know they don't exactly compare, but it's the best I could come up with Smile) Boy - not sure. DH and I have discussed it a lot and I am leaving the decision up to him. Girl - I think so, I will eventually have her ears pierced. I got mine done when I was 6 mo. The REAL question is: am I having a boy or a girl?? Confused

  •   EDD/How far along? 9.20/37w1d How have you been feeling? Been feeling good.  Lots of BH's lately which can be annoying.  Sleeping has been going well and my hips have been hurting a lot less which is amazing. Appt updates? Labor progress?  Had an appointment today and my first internal.  It wasn't fun and the "spotting" she said I might have was a lot more than I expected.  I told her I didn't want to know what, if any dilation, I had and that she could tell my H if he wanted to know - which he did.  She did say the BH's were doing their job and my cervix is softening.  It feels very strange to be basically walking around like a ticking labor time bomb. QOTW: If you are having a boy, have you decided about circumcision?  If you are having a girl, will you pierce her ears as an infant?  We are having a girl and won't be piercing her ears.  Not sure when we will do it.  Will probably wait until she asks to have it done.

  •   EDD/How far along? EDD is Sept 12 - 38 weeks 2 Days.  Planned C-section scheduled for Sept 7 - that's one week! How have you been feeling? - Exhausted and nauseated (what else is new!) Appt updates? Labor progress? I am scheduled for my LAST OB appointment/NST on Friday.  My doctor won't be there, so he said "See you next week on Wednesday" when I left the office on Tuesday.    BUT - I have been wiping blood every time I go to the bathroom today, and I am having contractions that are mild to moderate, and are coming every 20 minutes.  Something tells me I'm not going to make it to my scheduled C-section!  QOTW: If you are having a boy, have you decided about circumcision?  If you are having a girl, will you pierce her ears as an infant?  (I know they don't exactly compare, but it's the best I could come up with Smile)   I am having a boy, and he will not be circumcised.   DS is not circumcised.  I was perfectly happy with my decision to not circ, until DS started to have the first symptoms of foreskin separation last week...... I had a few brief moments of panic and thought, 'This next one is being Circ'd!'   But then I calmed down and realized we can handle this, it'll be all right.  Wink   I decided to not circumcise because I believe it is an unecessary procedure done mainly for cosmetic purposes.  If he wants to have his foreskin removed later in life, he can go for it, just know that I didn't want make that decision for him.  Thus, if I were having a girl, I would probably feel the same way - I think baby girls with earrings are darling, but it is also an unecessary procedure done for cosmetic purposes.  I don't want to cause my child physical pain without their permission for a procedure that is merely cosmetic in its purpose.   So, if I were having a girl, I would leave her ears alone and let her decide someday if she wants to have them pierced.

    How have you been feeling? Exhausted and huge! Sleep is horrible and just got prescribed wrist braces for severe carpal tunnel syndrome! I cold barely feel my fingertips... They are helping somewhat!
    Appt updates? Labor progress? Had my first internal on Monday and was 1cm 30% effaced - doc said cervix is still thick but he said the head is touchable and he is in great position!! I also had some spotting after that then I believe what is part of mucus plug come out over the last two days!

    QOTW: If you are having a boy, have you decided about circumcision?  If you are having a girl, will you pierce her ears as an infant?  (I know they don't exactly compare, but it's the best I could come up with Smile) We are having him circumcised... I left if mostly up to DH and he said yes.

  •   Oops, I haven't checked in in a very long time, sorry!  EDD/How far along? I'm 38 weeks 1 day, but having a rcs next Wednesday 9/7 at 39 weeks! How have you been feeling? Just tired and I think I'm coming down with a cold/allergy thing.  Not the best timing! Appt updates? Labor progress? Had my last appt. with an inside baby yesterday.  I'm "thinning nicely" which really doesn't mean much since I'm a planned c/s.

    QOTW: If you are having a boy, have you decided about circumcision?  If you are having a girl, will you pierce her ears as an infant?  (I know they don't exactly compare, but it's the best I could come up with Smile)   We're Team Green but we will circumcise if we have a boy.  We will not pierce a little girls ears until she is old enough to ask for them and care for them.
