Any signs of early labor yet? Nothing yet. Stronger BH for sure, but no "real" contractions that I've noticed.
Is your nursery/baby area ready? ALMOST. I'm so ready to just have that room done! But everything is washed and put away...just need to finish up the decor.
Any updates/progress/appointments? Had my 37-week appointment today. Vitals are all good, and baby is head down. Starting internals next week. Yuck.
Any signs of early labor yet? Been having contractions off and on for the last couple days as well as losing my mucus plug...so we will see
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Finished it this past weekend! Just had to have DH hang a few more things on the walls and he got it done on his days off
Any updates/progress/appointments? I have my weekly OB appointment in a couple hours and my scheduled c section next Friday! I'm nervous about the surgery but so excited to meet LO and not be pregnant any more
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Except for some stray decorations and some stuff in the mail, yes!
Any updates/progress/appointments? My GD meds were upped yesterday. My BP is hanging out borderline high. I have hip pain so bad I can literally barely walk. I had a huge breakdown yesterday because I am just mentally DONE.
Any signs of early labor yet? Nope, just lots and lots of cramping!
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Yes! Finally all finished this weekend!
Any updates/progress/appointments? Had an appointment yesterday. 1.5cm dilated, 50% effaced and baby is at a -2 station. Next week if I'm still making progress they will do a membrane sweep. She told us to DTD lots this week before our next appointment to see if we can get things moving!!
Any signs of early labor yet? No, had my first experience with lightning vag last night, but that doesn't really count for anything, right? Just BH - both tummy tightening and period cramps types.
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Ish. We've ordered sheets, a pack n play, and just need some final touches put on the room.
Any updates/progress/appointments? Tuesday's my 36.5 appointment, so we'll see then!
Any signs of early labor yet? The odd contraction here and there but nothing of importance. I'm upping my RRL tea and walking today.
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Yep. There wasn't a ton that needed to be done since we had just moved DD2 out of there.
Any updates/progress/appointments? Appt yesterday was the same as last week's. BP, protein, etc look good. Still at 2-3cm dilated. Next appt scheduled for 6/6 (due date) but I am so DONE!

PgAL/PAL Welcome
Any signs of early labor yet? Not really, just a lot of menstrual like cramping.
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Pretty much! All the important things, at least.
Any updates/progress/appointments? Had my appt today and my cervix is FINALLY making some progress. Softening and starting to dilate, though not quite a centimeter. Doc tried to sweep around up there though to help move things along. Yay!
Any signs of early labor yet? Back aches, menstrual cramps, discharge, just like everyone else.
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Yes as of last night.
Any updates/progress/appointments? Just had my 39 week appt today and doc scheduled my induction for this Tuesday. I'll be 39w5d. because of sugar levels, increasing bp and decreased fluid. Crazy!!!
I've had a load of aches and random contractions. I never had any of his with DD1; not a single thing until I went into active labor. I've also been pooping, like, 4 times a day and my stomach is SO messed up today. I've been feeling like I'm going to puke since noon and don't know what to think of it. I'm hungry but not...ugh. Just want it to go away!
Is your nursery/baby area ready?
Yeah. Baby will be in our room until she's STTN, then will share with her big sis. DD1's room has been ready to accommodate her for a while now; we got a bigger dresser, rearranged to make room for a second crib. We just rearranged our bedroom to fit the cosleeper next to my side.
Any updates/progress/appointments?
I was waiting to post here today until after my appointment this afternoon, but it was completely uneventful, soooo yeah. The highlight was my doctor saying, "You're goin to go early" despite the fact that it's just a guess based on my last labor. I peed in a cup, for weighed, BP, chat with doc, end. All's well! May or may not have my first internal next week.
How many weeks today? I am 36 weeks today! Holy cats...doesn't seem real to be 36 weeks.
Any signs of early labor yet? Just my normal BH is all. Period like cramps in my lower back, that go into my pelvic area, but that could be from him checking too see if he was head down. And if I'm not mistaken, I think I MAY be starting to lose my mucus plug, but again....was told it could be from my internal yesterday.
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Heck no! Before people think I am lazy, lol we live in a 1 bedroom apartment with barely any room. The 2 bedroom we were to get, the lady let go from under us. But I do have the bassinet all set up in our room. We are looking at a few places this coming weekend so hopefully we find one we like, then Colten can have his nursery, since I am dying to decorate!
Any updates/progress/appointments? I had my weekly appointment yesterday. Got my strep results back...negative! And he checked to see if Colten was head down, which he is...yay! I go back next week again for my weekly.
Any signs of early labor yet? I don't think so. Lots of cramping and the usual aches and pains in the lower back. I don't know what labor feels like because I didn't have any symptoms with DD1. My water just broke one morning....
Is your nursery/baby area ready? Pretty much. I have a few things to hang on the wall and some laundry to do.
Any updates/progress/appointments? Had my appt today and they did the GBS test. That was interesting. My practice doesn't do internal exams so I'll just keep going once a month until this journey is over.
