June 2013 Moms

baby is officially late. and mom is still preg & miserable.

My due date was yesterday 6/25.  I feel like every time I check this board most people are talking about having their baby or dealing with baby, etc. Is anyone else still pregnant??? And possibly thinking that theirs will be a July baby?!?!  I am.  Not that anything is wrong with July, its just my mind was set on June because that's the due date they gave and I know it's just an estimate but still ugh.

 Words cannot express how miserable I was yesterday. But I am literally on such a roller coaster of emotions.  It started about a week ago.  One minute I am hysterically crying that I don't want to be preg anymore, I am tired, uncomfortable, miserable, cant believe it hasn't come out yet.... and a few hours later I am telling myself there is a reason for everything, God has a plan for us, we just don't know it...and I'm okay. It's not even every other day that my mind changes.  It's throughout the day.   The anxiety of not knowing when it will happen, or IF it will even happen on its own...this is the worst. I was nesting a few weeks ago, felt totally ready to do this, and I feel as though I've hit a brick wall.  I am frustrated and not feeling up to the challenge anymore.

To top it all off, I have a very bad cold!!  Sore throat, stuffy, tired.... ugh just what any 40 wk pregnant woman needs.

Sorry to vent, I am feeling so alone, my husband doesn't really understand what the big deal is.  I am just wondering if there is anyone else out there is the same boat. :( 

Re: baby is officially late. and mom is still preg & miserable.

  • I am due on Sunday.  I am working until this Friday and then I am off for the next 12 weeks.  I am counting down till Friday.  Her stretching movements inside me are painful now and she likes to bunch up against my right breastbone which hurts when I am sitting in my office chair.  I am so ready for my maternity leave to start!  My doc told me if she does not show up by next Tuesday he is scheduling my induction for next Thursday or Friday.  At least I know there is a plan and we will have a baby by next week.  That knowledge has really helped me to be relaxed and less stressed.  My first daughter arrived a week early so I don't what it is like to wait but it looks like this baby will be a July baby.  I keep telling her she can stretch much better out here and has a big sister who can't wait to meet her.  Hope you feel better soon and you go into labor very soon!  Sending you some positive labor vibes!

  • I totally feel you! My due date is tomorrow and I have a feeling my baby will be a July baby too. I just really want to meet him and be done with this pregnancy. The doctor scheduled an induction for July 2nd so I know that he will be here soon but I was just really looking forward to him coming naturally around my due date. It is disappointing because I just feel like my body isn't doing what it is supposed to be doing at this point. We will get through it though! Just try and stay positive and think that our babies will just be well cooked :)

  • Aw! Hang in there mama! But maybe it's a good thing that baby stays in while you're sick. You wouldn't want to have to worry about baby getting sick!

    Was due on the 23rd still waiting I know how you feel. I keep praying and hoping it will happen God has a plan I'm just waiting to see what it is.
  • Oh I know how you feel. I am due Friday but I'm banking on Colten being a July baby.
    I feel like complete crap today to. I am nauseous, achy and have a low fever. This stinks. I can't get comfortable no matter what. Sleeping is near impossible these days and I am just genuinely ready to have this baby already! My contractions have gotten a lot stronger but still not real close together. My back kills and Colten is sitting REALLY low...everytime he moves, it hurts. Come on kid....time to come out, otherwise your getting an eviction notice!!!

  • I was due on the 24th. I am starting to feel some anxiety too. In addition I have my sister & niece here staying with my other sister since the 21st just waiting for me to have this baby. I also had a home birth planned & hope I don't end up in a hospital with an unfamiliar Dr. & nurse for an induction.

  • I'm due today. As hard as it is, just keep reminding yourself that no woman has been pregnant forever- at most you've probably got 2 weeks to go. You can do it! You're in the home stretch now :)

  • I'm due Friday. I can relate to the roller coaster of emotions. Yesterday I cried a lot of the day feeling emotional about still being pregnant. I blame my Dr. And doula for telling me 3 weeks ago that the baby would be early. I even made my mom change her plans to come a few days early just in case. Now she has been here since Friday and is annoying the crap out of me. I would rather wait alone in peace and quiet. My Dr and I won't talk about an induction until July 5th. I am trying to stay patient and trust in God's timing to believe that we won't get there. And if we do, everything will be just fine.

  • I'm due tomorrow, 6/27, and have a feeling she will be a July baby. Actually, I kind of have from the start. They put us down for an induction on July 5th. I've had a pretty easy pregnancy and think baby girl just wants to stay in and live it up. I don't post as often, mostly lurking but have felt like everyone has given birth already. I got excited to see more end of June mommies posting. We will all get there...hurry up and wait!!

    I was due on 24th as well but at appt the next day I told Doc I was fed up with being preggers and we've scheduled to get induced Friday.
    Just prior to that decision I was like you on the rollercoaster of emotion.
