Final Hours Are Dragging!!

I keep looking at the clock to see what time it is. Grrrr. Today is dragging, and I doubt I'm going to get any sleep tonight.  Trying to find ways to distract myself, but with carpal tunnel driving me bonkers, I can't read or game or any of my usual stuff. Anyway, how are my other inside mama's doing today?

  • Im losing it, as you probably read if you read my post below. Your so lucky your gonna have your baby theirs an end in sight. What ever happened to second babies come faster anyway? Guess that one went out the window for me. Good luck with your induction, im sure with all the process you've already made that it shouldn't be too bad.

  • You're so close!  I would put on music, go for a walk, go for a drive... maybe go hang around Target for while...

    Me? After this AM, every little twinge of pain I get, I get overly excited and then let down because it's nothing.  Biggest roller coaster of my life = these past few days and its only going to get worse as time goes on.  I'm still really hoping that I get to call out of work tomorrow (due date and last day) because I am in REAL labor!!  Too bad most of my optimism faded when Turtle didn't come out on World Turtle Day...

  • I'm jealous. I'm so ready for this and I have no end in sight. I think I'm going to go take a nap, I should be working, but I'm over that too.

    Congrats on being so close though!

  • Once I manage to get my butt off this couch I'm gonna shower. And get my hair cut. My goodness it needs cut & don't want to have to mess with it once LO is here - if she ever gets here! Plus I need to go to Goodwill & then vacuum out my car. And clean this house. Get the nursery finished. Obviously I have a ton of crap to do, just don't really wanna do any of it. Procrastinating like crazy. *sigh* 
  • Today is a better day then yesterday. Yesterday it was hot and muggy here. Today isn't as bad and I slept really well last night.  I'm in a pretty good mood except that for a good hour I thought it was Friday. Sad I'm really hoping I don't have to come back to work on Tuesday.
  • I'm scheduled to be induced Saturday morning and I am starting to lose faith that DD2 will arrive before then.  I am fine with it, really, as I was induced with DD1 and know what to expect.  Now I am torn between focusing on the new baby coming and focusing on spending time alone with DD1 before 2 arrives.  Wishing everyone luck!

  • I have been doing pretty good so far. Although it seems like every other day I am ready for him to be here and then the next day I am perfectly content. Last night, however, was a big melt down. I started feeling more uncomfortable and I think I am just worn out of trying to over analyze every little twinge or cramp. Today I do feel better but still SOOOOO ready!

  • Ugh! No kidding!

    I wish something would progress. This kid is going to be such a handful. I don't have carpal tunnel but the sciatica I have is worse than anything. I hope you get some sleep for tomorrow. I know I didn't sleep at all last night and I am a mess today. Had my appointment this morning and didn't help matters. I haven't dilated anymore since last week, so still only 1cm. They did an NST and baby looks good. I am having contractions apparently, but to me it just feels like more back spasms. But LO won't stay engaged. Of course, b/c it's a holiday weekend they won't do too much unless I get into trouble or water breaks. So doc told me to come back Tuesday for another NST, and scheduled an induction for next Thursday. But suspects I will need a C-section. He thinks LO's head is too big to fit and that's why he's not staying engaged. But didn't do anymore testing to see if that actually is the case. 

    The office staff today were completely off their game too. Which didn't help at all, as I have had reservations about sticking with this office for some time. 

    I hope tomorrow goes well for you! Sending labor dust your way and hoping for an easy eviction. Good luck FFR! And everyone else too.
