    How long until you meet your baby (maximum)? 8 days

    Trying anything new to get this baby out? I'm gonna put on my Green Bay Packers jersey and do a little dance.  Maybe I can shake this kid out.

    I am still here.

    How far along are you?

    41w2d

    How are you feeling?

    I'm having the worst mood swings of my entire life.  One minutes I'm sobbing and the next I'm laughing.

    How long until you meet your baby (maximum)?

    Still not sure.  We'll probably start talking about that at my appt tomorrow.

    Trying anything new to get this baby out?

    Only thing left is caster oil, and my MW wants me to wait until I'm at least a little dialted to start that.  On Friday, I was still posterior and closed.

     Meeee. :/ 

    How far along are you?

    40w, 2d 

    How are you feeling?

    Tired of getting zero quality sleep and waking up with a fireball in my esophagus. 

    How long until you meet your baby (maximum)?

    Induction scheduled for Tuesday night for high BP 

    Trying anything new to get this baby out?

    I'm open to whatever. Really not a fan of resorting to pitocin.

    Still here. 

    How far along are you?

    41w1d


    How are you feeling?

    Same as yesterday; discouraged, but otherwise fine. A good friend told me that I'm "not miserable enough" for labor to be starting yet, and that it'll happen when I'm truly just fed up and completely uncomfortable. I know she was trying to be helpful, but to hear that when I'm already over a week past due was kind of annoying. Just because I'm not swollen and waddling does not mean it's not time for this guy to come out. 

    Last night I had what I was sure were early labor contractions, fifteen minutes apart for three hours before I tried to get some sleep. Woke up this morning with nothing. Sad

    How long until you meet your baby (maximum)? 

    5-6 days? If induction is started this Friday, I should have him by Saturday. We'll see at my check-up tomorrow what my cervix looks like. 

    Trying anything new to get this baby out?

    Nothing new, no. Ate spicy Thai curry for dinner with a small glass of red wine last night. But that was as much for my benefit and sanity as for any labor effects.

    Catbus :( I was hoping you were in labor because I didn't see you on the boards for a while. I'm sorry.  And I'm sorry about what your friend said.  I've had a few people say the same thing to me, and it's annoying. I also thought I was in early labor last night and then woke up with nothing.  I say we both have our babies tomorrow, eh?

    :( This makes me angry for you.  People keep telling me that I'm "still too small" and even my husband has been suggesting (multiple times all of a sudden this week) that "your due date was probably off by a week."  I just feel like that negates any discomfort that I'm feeling:/  My in-laws are also constantly saying things like, "Maybe he'll come on the 2nd, that's Anne's birthday.  Or the 3rd, that's so-and-so's birthday."  Last night I finally said, "Can't you just hope for me that he comes TODAY? And if not today, TOMORROW?"  Jeepers.

    How are you feeling? Ok. Tired and sore. Lots of contractions of all kinds. Getting pretty frustrated especially with other people.

    How long until you meet your baby (maximum)? No idea. My next apt isn't until the 8th though I may call and see if they can see me sooner because that feels like a really long time with out any check on baby.

    Trying anything new to get this baby out? I think I've done just about everything. No castor oil per my mw though because they worry about it affecting baby and causing a bm in utero.

    That is a really long time!  It should be at least weekly at this point!

    Still here. 

    How far along are you?
     
    40w 4 days (almost 5!)  
     
    How are you feeling?
     
    Physically, fine. Maybe increased BH, more pelvic pressure, but good enough to keep working. Emotionally/mentally--a bit anxious! And I'm starting to get the suggestions now--spicy food, walking/running, glycerine anal suppository (thanks, MIL) etc. 

    How long until you meet your baby (maximum)?
     
    About October 10th.  
     
    Trying anything new to get this baby out?
     
    Meh. Not really, unless you count spending the whole night up on my feet baking and nesting. Membrane sweep will be Tuesday.
