end of decemeber mommas...

*i know this is going to sound crazy, but remember who is doing the posting hahaha

end of december mommas.. are you freaking out bc we still have over a month until LO comes? or are you getting excited, thinking that LO may come early bc a lot of Dec mommas have had Nov babys?

I have to keep reminding myself that I am at the end of the month-and it's okay for LO to be still inside ((KEEP COOKIN!))--but its SO hard when I see 36/37wk mommas posting that they had LO, Im like "WTF-WHERES MY BABY?"

NicoleD0516 · November 2011

I'm late Nov./early Dec, and wanted to say, hang in there!! I know EXACTLY what you're going through. It's always hard to be at the end of the month when you see everyone else having their LO's! Hopefully, with any luck, yours will arrive a week or two ahead of schedule.

Yup, I feel the same!!! I have felt this ay the whole time though...from people going into the next trimester, feeling the baby move, finding out the gender, etc...I have been behind in everything!!! Oh well, I'm still having fun being pregnant (and shopping alone)!

BFab11 · November 2011

I'm going off the expectation that I will be pregnant in 2012. If I happen to go earlier, that would be nice but it would throw a wrench in holiday plans, lol. My MW is out of town Dec. 18th-23rd and my doula is out of town Dec 24th-27th, so I need Little Miss to stay put until her due date (12/31) so my whole birth team is here!

This is exactly how I feel! Just trying to remember to enjoy these last few weeks because with the holidays it will be here before I know it.

kylayton · November 2011

I'm feeling that way and I still have 3.5 weeks left!

mommy20110 · November 2011

yes! def feel the same way 6 more weeks left seems so long.

njbride0603 · November 2011

I do kind of feel that way but since this is our last baby I'm trying to enjoy the last 6 weeks of my pregnancy. I feel like after Thanksgiving it will go very fast! I actually freak out a little bit when I see some of these early babies b/c I'm not sure I'm ready for her to come just yet

jordanmd89 · November 2011

I am at the same point except I don't want baby to come yet. I will be 34 weeks Thursday and I think baby needs to stay in there a little longer. I am just trying to stay busy. We have Thanksgiving next week, then I am having my family over for an OSU/OU watch party on December 3rd, my last baby shower is December 4th, then I will have to make a Tulsa run to get everything I still need from BBB, the 10th we are going to Fayetteville for my brother's birthday, and then I will be getting ready for Christmas. If LO decides he wants to come early and change my plans, that is wonderful. If not, I will keep spending time with my family and friends and enjoying the month and not dwelling on when he will come. I knew when I signed up for this board I would be one of the last to have this baby and the longer he waits the more developed he is!

alieb82 · November 2011

Yes, I feel exactly the same way! I can't wait for my little man to arrive and am getting anxious that he's coming early....then I get anxious that he'll come late lol. The days are going by so fast though that he'll be here in no time regardless

J&JSuiter070205 · November 2011

NO freaking out here--this is our 3rd and we know what to expect

I just don't like the anticipation so much, although I am very thankful to have made it this far... I've had lots of problems w/this pregnancy from hyperemesis to placenta previa and most recently bright red bleeding where I ended up in the hospital for 2 days.

TonyaCody06 · November 2011

I don't want a November/preterm baby so I am happy mine is still cooking

I've been working hard on her nursery lately and "almost" have it done...I can't wait to post pics (finally). I've been trying to focus on the holidays for now to help pass the time. Of course I am anxious....but I also want a full term baby!

06hoky · November 2011

End of the month does suck a bit because I want my baby now! It's hard to believe there's been so many December babies already. I really need my baby to stay in until 39 weeks at least though so I get through school. After that she can come at 39 weeks and 1 day. It feels so far away still.

Happily Overwhelmed · November 2011

Haha...I too am like "why aren't you thinking of coming out yet?".

I'm due the 25th. All along I kept telling myself this baby wouldn't be born until the first few days of January. Now I feel SO behind with everyone at the end or having their babies. I keep reminding myself 5-6 more weeks. But it's hard to remember that when you're on the December 2011 board these days...

zoeyandsummersmom · November 2011

I am supposed to be an end of December mama but lately - not so sure. Between the GD, edema only in 1 foot, seeing spots, doing a 24 urine collection pre-eclampsia over the weekend - I am really not sure. I have been sent to l&D for high blood pressure already. Honestly, just hoping to make it to 37 weeks and not be put on bed rest.

My best friend's husband is finishing up his residency in ob/gyn and was saying if I was his patient, I'd be on bedrest already and probably in the hospital. We don't have the room ready or the furniture yet, but at this point. I just want everything to be okay.

honestly this is the perfect mentality to have. with DS, I was due in mid-May and pretty much my whole birth month board had already had their babies before me! It was very discouraging. Just wait until mid December then you'll REALLY be feeling it. But think to yourself....the baby will be MUCH easier to take anywhere for the holidays inside the belly intstead of outside! I promise!

mrs JT09 · November 2011

I am getting really excited/nervous/anxious! I feel so unprepared, but then again I cant wait until my baby is here! I want to see who is inside of me! I am team green and realllllllllly want to see if my intuition is right!!!

DiademChi · November 2011

I'm more than glad to have the extra time and be a late Dec mom. Hope baby arrives on her due date, or at least post Christmas.

dootz8 · November 2011

A part of me is definitely jealous that these moms are already getting to snuggle with their little ones, but the practical me knows that my little one needs to keep cooking. I know the holidays will make time fly, and the nursery won't be ready until mid-December, so there's no reason for the little guy to hurry.

prairiegurl24 · November 2011

i just really want my baby out like right now, and im only 34 weeks along, im just uncomfortable, but still having a little over a month left is kind of crazy to think about really

kwinkle1980 · November 2011

I just feel likek everything I go through is old news and "annoying" to people who are tired of reading about it. By the time my baby is born, there will be a vent about annoying birth announcement posts.

This is my fear also. I'll post that baby is here and 0-1 person will say something. lol.

Ruby_Soho · November 2011

I'm kinda the opposite. DS was 5 weeks early so I'm willing this wee guy to stay in longer. He's already 3 fifths engaged so I'm doing the opposite to all the home remedies to induce labour. We have delicious fresh pineapple in the fridge that I'm not touching, DH and I have been using condoms, as per the midwife I've been having an hour's rest on the couch everyday and avoiding long walks etc. It feels a bit silly but I really want him to stay in until at least 36 weeks. Preferably longer.

emadlma · November 2011

Something about 6 weeks started to sound really close to me this week, especially considering if he comes two weeks early, that is only a month away. I want him to stay in until at least December 16 so that I don't have to use any of my leave time until after winter break. (I am taking the rest of the school year off so every day counts). Of course if he wants to come on the 17th I am ok with that. I am definitely at that uncomfortable stage and really ready to have my body back to myself (at least while I am not physically nursing him.)

anna1387 · November 2011

My first was really late. I am due the 26 of December, so I'm just trying to focus on enjoying this time with baby. I don't know if we will have any more so I'm just trying to "enjoy" every moment. I am doing a VBAC so I want to just let everything come in it's own time. However, I will still be bummed that others get to hold their little ones first!

SaraTF · November 2011

It just feels so slow. Childbirth classes have made me even more eager to be done, since I feel like, "Okay, I can do this, let's go." I'm glad my baby is staying put and will hopefully be full term, but I am also very uncomfortable and wish I was closer to my due date. I'm trying to work on my attitude though, and enjoying these last 6 weeks. I will be able to do black Friday shopping and get a lot more knitting in before LO arrives.

This exactly! By the time we got to the glucose test, everyone was venting that they were tired of the questions. Not my fault I'm late in the month.

age5157 · November 2011

I feel the EXACT same way! With every little twinge or pain I get, I'm wondering "Is this it!?!!?". So annoying! I'm due December 20 and I'm just telling myself I'll probably have the New Years baby so I don't get too excited. LOL

shanabonner · November 2011

YES!!!! I am feeling the same way. I keep thinking any day now...oh wait no almost two months!! I am not due until the 30th so I'll probably still be here cooking my baby for a while.
