    Do I let DH know sexy time will help with inducing labor or just let him think he is a stud muffin? :-?

    I vote the latter considering I want LO out ASAP and he wants LO out as late as possible.

    Hahaha this. I don't tell DH at all! :-p not that he would refuse... But he might hesitate!

    My big sister was 9 when my mom was pregnant with my twin and I. She was telling us how huge our mom's belly was with us. I was born 6 pounds 7 ounces and my twin was 6 pounds 8 ounces.
    That's really good for twins! I can't even imagine carryingall that around.

    I think DH has been spying on my Bump posts again... When he left this morning, he told me I'm on bedrest and that he'll do the laundry tonight when he gets home. Like a mind reader!

    Or he just feels bad that his mother was making more comments to him about how surprised she is that I don't want to be pregnant anymore. Some of you may remember that she looooooved being pregnant all four times, how easy and painless she tells me it was, etc. I love that woman, but everyone's pregnancy is different. It has been difficult from Day One for me--I literally cramped up for two weeks post-ovulation. Plus I've got a good ten years and 100lbs on her 1970's self.

    great! just fan-fucking-tastic. My pool pump or some pipe on the pool burst today and was spewing water into the street so bad that the city came and turned off our water. It has been backed up buy my H said he turned the water off to the pool so it wasn't running through it. so either he lied or he is a terrible handy man. anyway the only way to get the water back on is to fix the pump. the first people he called for repair can't make it until MONDAY are you FREAKING KIDDING ME!?!!? I can't be without water until monday!

    plus this is NOT helping my BP ugh rawr.

    I'm so upset.

    There's a new doctor in my practice and I saw her the appointment after my glucose test. I asked her what my results were and she flat out lied - saying everything was okay. The doctor I saw today, apologized a million times and informed me that my GD results got overlooked. I failed by a few points and should have taken the 3-hour. They drew some blood today and I'll go in next week fasting and they'll draw again. Not sure what they'll do if it comes back abnormal since I'll be 38 weeks by then.
    So now I'm 37 weeks and have not had the greatest diet at all. What if I do have it? What have I done to the baby?

    I would switch practices if I wasn't so close to the end.

    I have the most irrational fear in the back of my mind that I won't make it to the hospital so of course, I had nightmares all night. Question for those STM+ awake - did you have similar labors as your mothers? I'm the only child. Mom was induced and had me within 3 hours, the doctor was shocked. Now everyone in the family is saying it'll be the same for me and I better get to the hospital ASAP as if there's a genetic component involved that I'm unaware of. I ignored them up until recently when the thought creeps into my head. Luckily, I have an appt today to express my craziness.
    @Lindsay808 Mine actually went very similarly to my moms in that once they broke my water and I was dilated to a 6, the baby was out an hour or so later. My mom always progressed quickly at the end and so did I apparently and we both had really fast deliveries.

    I made the mistake of telling DH that I wanted to try to have a lot of sex after next week to induce labor. He just said, "well I want to have sex just to have sex with you and be close." Then I felt like crap. Definitely go the stud muffin route.

    I told SO the same thing, he didn't care about WHY I was using him, but now he's holding me to it and I'm too tired and sore!

    @pineconey that sucks. Been there. I definitely have resigned myself to drinking all the water all night long and getting up to pee a million times (even though the bathroom is all the way downstairs, boo).

    Can someone promise me that if I nap less today I will sleep better tonight? I'm still so tired, but it's after 10am and I feel like maybe trying to fight the sleepiness will help.

    I drink 4 liters of water (plus unknown ounces from ice) a day. I swear I spend my entire day on the toilet and it seems like too much water. Yet, the days that I skimp on it, I hurt and get dizzy. Thank god for whoever invented sugar free flavoring! I also made 2 liters of mint herbal tea and chilled it, so that has been helping break up the monotony.

    Thanks everyone for the TPs. I talked to one of the doctors in the practice for 30 minutes on the phone. He took the time to explain in detail the nature of the screening tests and GD itself. I haven't had any sugar in my urine so chances of me having GD, to a serious degree of harming the baby, is slim.
    I swear though, that bitch better not be the one delivering when it's go time. I don't trust her for shit.

    Nope... It's all a lie. You will just be super tired all day, and then super pissed at night when you're still tossing and turning. Aaaaaand repeat the whole process again the next day.
    That technique actually worked for me for a few days. I was exhausted and so very mean by 8:00 but I slept. I'm back to needing benedryl now though. :(

    Someone should pull out the Crystal ball and inform her that she's in labor.... Also, I feel like today is going to be a very snarky day. It's like my level of snark directly correlates to the amount of back pain I'm feeling. And today is going to be a doozy.!

    Just made a body scrub with coffee grounds in it that I found on Pinterest. My skin feels so smooth now. :]
    Please share the recipe!


    I used regular sugar and didn't have any peppermint oil, but still worked awesome!


    1/4 cup olive oil
    1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    1 cup pure turbinado sugar
    15 drops peppermint essential oil (Mentha piperita)
    1/2 cup used coffee grounds from a freshly brewed pot

    Wake-Up Scrub How-To:
    1. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl; using a fork, thoroughly blend. Transfer the scrub to a wide mouthed jar, and store in a cool place until ready to use. The scrub will keep for one to two weeks, longer if refrigerated.

    2. While showering, apply handfuls of the coffee scrub to wet skin in circular motions, starting at the feet and working up. The scrub contains oil, so it's best to do this over a rubber mat to avoid slipping. Pay particular attention to rough spots such as heels, ankles, knees, and elbows and cellulite affected areas.

    3. After scrubbing, cleanse skin as usual using a mild natural soap or body wash. Pat skin dry with a fluffy towel, and follow with lotion to seal in the moisture.
