Let's see how many...

MallardDucky · August 2013

Will go into labor tonight!

Not only is it a full moon, it's also a blue moon and will be the last one till 2015!

Also tonight's moon is also called the full sturgeon moon, the full red moon and the green corn moon or grain moon! So there is a little history for you lol.

JLMcWeeney · August 2013

Haha I bet we will get more false labor with wishful thinking than actual labor. Lol

princessvespa1 · August 2013

I was wondering when the next full moon was! Thank you for posting this.

Tshae2432 · August 2013

Crossing my fingers. Lol. I didn't know this info tho. Thanks for the fun info

SweetPeaK26 · August 2013

Lol, I JUST got done txting dh telling him that I'm really crampy this morning and not feeling well so keep his phone close! Had no idea it was a full moon though...

ammiddleton3 · August 2013

Very interesting! Hopefully not me just yet being only 35 weeks! I am getting very anxious however to meet this little man!

fhgrl21 · August 2013

My MIL just texted me that it's a full moon!!! Today is my last day of work, so I am kinda hoping to last a few more days so I can get some things accomplished... 38w tomorrow!!

happybride 276 · August 2013

Not me. I have four more weeks of baby baking time.

amief · August 2013

I just told DH I'm glad we have an appointment tomorrow because I am scheduled for a C section but was having much stronger contractions last night (nothing consistent though). I didn't realize it was the full moon either, but fingers crossed LO stays put.

Same here! (closer to 5 weeks actually!) I'm assuming baby will hold out until the 19th when the next full moon appears. hehe

Shanmarie1083 · August 2013

I have no shame in saying I hope it's me!!

tittytwistertortoises · August 2013

Last night I was thinking I would go into labor today or tomorrow. So hopefully this moon thing does some action for me because I am ready and over anticipating it. I swear this baby can't get any lower in vagina! I took a bath at 4 am and thought to myself, "Is there any way I can wrap my vag in a heating pad?" Today is probably the most uncomfortable I have been, so let's go blue full moon!

Ugh. I don't want to go over. I know I being a FTM I probably will, but I can see me getting upset about going past my due date. Lol.

Luckymomma4 · August 2013

I kind of hope it would be me but since I am on baby number 4 and I have never gone into labor on my own... the chances are very small.

CNS1212 · August 2013

The full moon can cause changes for up to a week, so I anticipate lots of labors this week!

Probably not me (35 weeks) buuuuut.... ya never know

Mom38673 · August 2013

Woohoo! I'm 37 weeks, I hope we are set on go! This dude has been killing me!

I wouldn't mind going into labor on the next full moon. I'll be a day or so short of 39 weeks.

AppleMuffins · August 2013

@Nukke me too! I checked out when the Sept full moon was awhile back. It's before my due date on the 25th, so I'm hoping she'll make an appearance then! I really don't want to go late, though in all likelihood I'm sure I will. I'll probably be a 42 weeker.

wlux · August 2013

I hope she doesn't wait for next month... that would make me 4 days late.

I was, however, up all night with contractions that came and went but were starting to get painful. Little too early for my taste but I guess I should be happy that something is happening.

erink7211 · August 2013

I'm kind of thankful that I am only 35w5d. If I were about 2 weeks farther I would probably be jumping at any little feeling today hoping that it was the start labor. This way I can rest a little easier and not be so paranoid (or disappointed if it didn't happen).

MrsClaus8 · August 2013

And tomorrow's my birthday so it would be awesome! But he's only 36 weeks and breech so I doubt it'll happen.

kimberlymacrae · August 2013

I will camp out under the stars (makingsure to turn off the sprinklers)... will this help?

@Shanmarie... you with me?

kailet · August 2013

I won't lie. I'm 38 weeks as of yesterday and I'd like it if the full moon helped me along. My sister went into labor with the full moon last month, but she was closer to her EDD than I am.

EMLYNNLERETTE · August 2013

I can't tell you how badly I wish it were me! But I sincerely doubt it since I want it so bad.

I don't know why but I read crap out under the stars.

I need to go back to bed

Also I'm probably not having my baby until October :l

@Mallard cool info! I love astrology.

sugarkissed · August 2013

I'm quite doubtful because I haven't really had any signs of labour or even strong BH... but I wouldn't mind if the full moon gave baby a bit of encouragement tonight.

I'm ready to meet her!

kimmykaye · August 2013

Shouldn't be me tonight. Still on the Nifedipine through tonight. I've been having contractions the whole time I've been on this higher dose, but not to the point of going into L&D again. So, maybe by the weekend? Who knows?!? Good luck to all those who do go into labor today/tonight!

coraggiosa · August 2013

I'm 39 weeks, and I would love for it to be me!

magdalina.h · August 2013

::talks to ute:: girlfriend...stay inside! You'll be old enough to see the Blue Moon in a couple of years. STAY INSIDE!

That's my due date, so hopefully mine stays put for this one. Though too many people have made "labor" day jokes to me. I just want to get through August, then I'll be more open to having this baby. I want it to get to 37 weeks at least!

averettgirl · August 2013

I'm 34 weeks (due the very last day of September) so probably won't be me but like a PP said, maybe by the time the next full moon rolls around on Sept 19 :-).

babybird12 · August 2013

here is an interesting article on the topic...

Takeabreath · August 2013

I've been teasing my DH about this since last months full moon. Tomorrow is DH's birthday so it would be pretty cool if it were to happen tonight. I've been super crampy, lots of pelvic pressure and back pain in the last 15+ hours so we'll see!

himymlover · August 2013

I am so ready. At my dr's appt I asked if I was lower than a +1 station now, because his head has been at that point for three weeks. He said that if he was any lower then I would definitely be in labor and he would be on his way out..... I've been having contractions a ton today and I did dilate and efface even more, so I'm crossing my fingers.

MegStark · August 2013

Won't be me since I still have over 5 weeks to go! I'm jealous of all of you who can actually hope that you go into labor today. I want to be that far along SO bad.
Maybe during my nightly insomnia routine I'll venture to the patio to watch some TV with the full moon in sight. And enjoy a bowl of cereal.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm sure 5 weeks from now we'll thinking that time is going by way too fast and be jealous of you and your tiny newborn.

EmyB30 · August 2013

I hope it's not me....as much as I'm uncomfortable, I want him to at least bake two more weeks until he's considered term. I have not had one BH or contraction so I think I'm good. Except I've had tons of "your going early" comments from everyone today. Yesterday I had a rough day and today I feel great, so I hope it's not the calm before the storm :-O

adoubleu12 · August 2013

I going to bed early tonight! I gotta make it to at least Saturday!!

jjkaye · August 2013

I told the little dude that I had a busy day today and an important 7:30 am meeting tomorrow, but he's free to come any time after that. Can't believe it will be 39 weeks on Friday!!

Jilly82 · August 2013

It would make me the happiest lady out there.

utahbaby · August 2013

Ooooh me!!!! 38 weeks today, been achy/crampy and not feeling well. Sorta nauseous. Dr. appointment in about an hour, so we'll see if she's coming along! I'd LOVE to be in labor tonight!
