Any progress that you're aware of? I was 1.5cm at my appointment last week. I think I have had a few contractions since then but not much.

Are you still working? Nope, I only work two days a week but this is week 2 of maternity leave

What are you doing to pass the time until LO arrives? NOTHING but being bored. I am trying to keep up with my house and laundry.

Biggest complaints? I wish he would come on his own soon because I do not want to have to make the decision to induce or not.

What will you miss most about being pregnant? I love feeling this connected to the baby and that he relies solely on mommy.

Mac0711 · October 2011

How far along are you? 38 weeks, 3 days

Any progress that you're aware of? None whatsoever

Do you have an induction/c-section scheduled or are you waiting on spontaneous labor? She is breeched so we had to schedule a c/section for Friday, the 14th.

Are you still working? Yes, until Thursday.

What are you doing to pass the time until LO arrives? Working!

Biggest complaints? Just being miserably uncomfortable and the constant peeing. She hasn't dropped either so I can't imagine what it would be like if she did. Think I'd have to live on the toilet!

What will you miss most about being pregnant? Feeling her move inside of me.

Any feelings on when LO might arrive? 10/14 around 8:30 a.m.!

While I have to say it's nice to know when she's coming, my two previous pregnancies were by vaginal delivery so I'm a little sad that I can't wait for her to come on her own. Although it's frustrating seeing my total lack of progress toward her coming on her own - it makes me thinks she's not planning her arrival any sooner anyway.

stephdhg · October 2011

39 weeks 3 days according to one dr. office and 5 days overdue according to another.( had to switch at 30 weeks )

for 3 weeks now i have been 65% effaced, zero dilated, and she is sitting pretty at negative one station.... No further progress...

New practice - I got the one dr i do not get along with. She continually runs unnecessary tests. Both times I saw her, she says my baby is too small and its due to my Graves Disease and my endocrinologist is wrong and wants to run multiple blood tests ( which i did once to make her happy and guess what all is fine ) and last week she would not discuss induction until Halloween she said unless we ran a full CBC chem pan on my blood to make sure i have no underlying diseases or illnesses. I told her to leave the room so I could get dressed and go home. I am so done with her. This week I see my Dr.

I am still working. I do not want to but I have to.

I work and clean and walk to pass the time....

Biggest complaints? My husbands parents will not stop emailing and sending texts to me. His father has not spoken to him since March and his mother we speak to a couple times a week. Both are getting on my nerves. His mother compares herself to my mother and my relationship with my mother constantly and states that we do not keep her involved ( this can be its own long post ) and his father thinks we will not tell him when the baby arrives. FYI, I have gotten one email and 3 texts from his mother today alone and we spoke to her last night, his father sent 2 texts today. This occurs daily.....

I think I will miss her movements mostly...

We have already passed the dates my husband and myself had chose for when she was coming!
