I WANT MY BABY!

Re: I WANT MY BABY!
Thank you!!! I know that everyone says it doesn't matter how dilated you are, if you've been having contractions, etc... but I honestly feel no signs of labor whatsoever and starting to get more and more scared that I am just NOT going to go into labor on my own.
Thanks :-)
I felt that way, too. I did end up being induced, but it wasn't the nightmare I thought it'd be. Sending labor dust your way.
I don't blame you! Having 3 planned csections, I know nothing about being overdue but it was hard enough waiting for the planned date let alone not knowing!
Sending lots of labor dust your way!!!!
Thanks, everyone! The thing that is getting to me, too, on top of just being overdue is having been scheduled for 2 sections that were both due to baby being in a bad position (breech & then transverse breech) and then her flipping back to head down so the c-sections being cancelled. Now I am just anxious that after all of this, being overdue, they will end up inducing me and I'll end up in a c-section. I just can't stop thinking of all the what-ifs. It is so hard to give up all control, but what else can we do? I guess this is a good life lesson for a control freak like me... but UGH!!!
Looks like we're both still in the same boat! It's getting to the point that I'm afraid that even if I'm induced, that my body/uterus won't react to the meds & start contracting. Then it's like, well if it won't contract while pregnant, what if it won't contract after the baby to make the uterus go back down to normal size? I think I'm just really freaking myself out!
I honestly didn't think I'd ever be happy to feel contractions (haven't had a single one so far). So once I'm induced & things start going, I'll be better.
Good luck!
I know exactly how you feel. Hoping it happens for you really-really soon! In my case, infortunatelly it took two unsuccessful inductions and a CSection for DS to get here. I was beyond miserable at the end but he was 1000000% worth the wait. All the anxiety and worry of the last few weeks dissipated the moment I saw him for the first time.

I don't know if this helped me or was just a coincidence... try having a Dairy Queen Oreo Cheesequake Blizzard... my friend brought me one in the afternoon and my water broke 5 hours later.
Even if it doesn't help, at least it tastes good
Sending labour dust your way!
I'm right there with you! Being overdue is not fun ... Especially when you feel like nothing is happening. As much as I want to go into labor on my own, it is nice to know that one way or another my baby will be here within a week for sure. I don't have an induction date set yet but will schedule it at my appt on Tuesday if LO is still stubborn.
Good luck!!
