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 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

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!!!
