Last day of May - who is still pregnant?

How are the Mommies with inside babies still doing??
40 weeks, 5 days here. Had an appointment today. Baby is healthy & still head down (follow-up from my scheduled c-section yesterday when baby flipped back to head down from transverse breech). My blood pressure is good. I had another NST and baby was a little sleepy in the beginning; they had me drink some grape juice and she woke right up. As of yesterday, my cervix was on lock down (completely closed), though the OB could feel her head during the internal.
My next appointment will be on Tuesday, 41 weeks, 3 days, if I am still pregnant, and they will then schedule me for an induction, if that's the case, Wednesday or Thursday evening.
I have been out of work since Tuesday - taking 5 days of vacation and then I suppose I'll start my maternity leave (since that would put me to next Tuesday, anyway).
I am getting impatient and just really want to meet our stubborn little daughter, who is obviously already in charge, big time. :-) It's looking like she will be a June baby, though I'll always be a "May Momma."

Make a pregnancy ticker
I'm still here and today is my official due date, so I was never 100% positive I would even have a May baby. As of last Friday I was 0cm dilated so I'm not shocked that I'm still preggers. I'm not opposed to having a June baby, I just wish I knew when she would be coming!! My doctors office hasn't even talked about induction yet so it's driving me crazy.
The only thing I'm tired of is constant texts/calls asking how I'm feeling or if she's come yet. Ahhhhhhhh i just want to turn my phone off.
I'm still here as well! At my check up on Tuesday, I was 2cm dilated and "very thick" - the midwife didn't give me a percentage of effacement, but I'm taking that as basically not effaced at all. They had swept my membranes at my 39 week check up the week before and I've lost my mucus plug, but not much else is going on. Very random, non painful contractions pretty much all day.
I go see the MFM doctor tomorrow for a BPP and NST (my midwives send all their overdue moms there for a check up) and then I have my 41 week check up on the 5th. The latest they will let me go is 41w5d, so that would put me at June 8th for induction. I asked the midwife if she thought I would go that late and she said she wouldn't be surprised, so more than likely I have another week to go.

THIS! My family was so excited to hear that I could POSSIBLY be induced today...& kept reminding my MIL who kept telling people "he'll be here Thursday or Friday" that I MIGHT be induced & if things don't look good he will make me wait longer.. well what do you know I'm not dilated & we are waiting longer... I think she & my SIL are more upset than me & my DH are.... but if they had things their way he would have been here 3 weeks ago... but I don't know about anybody else...people find out I'm prego & people come out of the woodwork...my DH SIL NEVER calls me or texts me NOTHING my WHOLE pregnancy to ask "how you doing?" Nothing only calls or texts me to ask "is he here yet?" "are you in labor yet"....REALLY are you kidding me.. do you think that me, my husband (your husband's brother) & ALL OF YOUR IN LAWS would be so cold & insensitive to just not call you when I was in labor or when he got there & that nobody would notice you not being at the hospital to see your nephew.. that I would just bring him over one day & say oh ya we had him didn't think to call you... please give all of us a little more credit than that...I've resorted to not return or respond to any of her texts/calls/emails/fb posts from now on..
I'm sorry it kinda turned into a rant...its really been getting on my nerves..
I'm in the same boat...so sick of people asking if she's here yet. I know they mean well, but at the same time I want to choke them ;-) I know they are just excited to have her here, as I am. But come on people, do you really think I'm going to have the baby and not tell anyone?!?!
still pregnant. i was due a week ago, next apt is tomorrow and we'll talk induction.
today's my last day working, though, thank god because i can't take it anymore. even though i'm working from home, i am soooo irritable. especially with the constant emails asking if i've had the baby yet, am i going to be induced, am i going to have an epidural...???...oh and these emails are from people i never discussed my pregnancy with, other than to say that i was pregnant. wtf people, learn some boundaries. if i've never discussed my uterus with you before, what makes you think i want to now????
Also still pregnant
Due date was monday. Had dr's appt this morning, still 2cm and about 80% effaced. Baby's head is super low and engaged (dr confirmed that she's basically as far as she can get down without being out), so she couldn't do a membrane sweep since baby's head was totally in the way, argg. Dr is on call all weekend, and she thinks she will see me then, but who knows.
Otherwise the plan is next tuesday have an NST, wednesday meet with Dr. then thursday have the induction. Dr said that both baby and cervix are already totally good to go so all she would need is a small dose of Pitocin to get my contractions going.
I have a sinus cold and am so antsy/sore/enflamed in feet and crotch/tired, and want to get this show on the road!!! Come out baby!! Glad to know there are a bunch of us waiting together though.
Still pregnant here too...I was due on May 25th so I'll be 41 weeks tomorrow. Apparently the little guy has decided to show up fashionably late. If he's not here by Monday, then the eviction notice..i mean induction...will start Tuesday morning.
Good luck to everyone!!
Same thing happened here, except they had me drink grape juice. Woke her right up. Her heartrate was fine, just very steady - she isn't a morning person, just like her Mommy! She keeps me up at night so I wasn't surprised. After I drank the grape juice, she was all over the place.
Just wanted to check in ad tell y'all that I'm routing for you!!! Come on babies!!!! Come out and meet your awesome mamas!!!!
