Sorry to state the obvious but...

We are having babies next month... I don't know why this hit me so hard this morning, but it did. I think partially because I have decided on trying to give natural birth a go. Whoever is thinking about it and hasn't read Ina May's book on child birth, you should. That is really all I had this morning... just a tad freaked out!!<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

  • Next month sounds so close, but then I think about work and all the crap I have to do just in the next week, and I feel like a month is so far away!

    Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!

  • I've never been so glad to be due at the end of May as I am now that it's April.
    This is the one thing keeping me sane I think

    I had this same thought yesterday. Then I realised that quite a few of us could feasibly have our babies THIS month.

    I am not prepared.

    Also this! My friend had her sweet baby boy at 33 weeks 6 days yesterday! Little guy is as handsome as can be, but it still made me freak out.
  • I still have 1.5 weeks of work left and judging by how hard this week has been so far, it's going to feel like 3 months. I have to train my replacement next week and I'm already talking 90% jibberish.

  • Had my first "Wow, you're still pregnant?" comment yesterday. And now that I'm feeling humongous and exhausted all the time, the intense spring cleaning I was planning on doing before LO arrives is looking less and less likely, especially if he decides to arrive earlier than May 5th. Yikes.

  • i had the same thought during my Monday check-up when my MW told me Peanut was beginning to "engage." 

    I'm riding the hormone roller coaster, so of course I ugly cried all over the office.
  • I'm definitely starting to freak out a little! I will say though, my acid reflux has been almost unbearable this week, and part of me knows the arrival of LO will eventually bring some relief in that particular department, i.e. it will be nice to have my stomach and esophagus back in the right spot. Haha. Other than that, there's still so much to do! Little dude is approximated at over 4 pounds so hopefully there's a few weeks of bake-time left to get everything done!

    Baby #2 due 4/26/16!

  • Yeah I was feeling like time was almost up since I'm being induced at 37 weeks, untill at my appointment yesterday my dr said I'm still so early and have a WHOLE month to go.

  • Yep, totally starting to freak out. The doctor is probably planning on inducing me at 39 weeks, which is one month from today... Yeah I am totally unprepared!

  • I'm totally freaking out now that it's April. I mean, I have all the stuff ready for LO, but I'm not ready. I realized as much as I bitch and complain about being pregnant I am going to miss feeling her inside me and knowing she is totally content. 
    I'm also officially starting to worry about her position. I have my growth ultrasound coming up and if baby girl hasn't flipped by then I'll be scheduling a C section for 39 weeks which is in less than 40 days. Hold me!

  • I'm due in 29 days. A month sounds long, but 29 days does not.

  • I already freaked out yesterday when I realized come this Thursday I'll have two weeks of work left before going on leave and soon the baby will arrive if he doesn't arrive sooner.  I'm due May 5th, 33 days to EDD.  What how did that happen?!!

    Same here! He's not due till May 30th, but after seeing these announcements at 30- 35 weeks I'm realizing shit can get real very fast!
  • This content has been removed.
  • I'm 33 weeks and the Dr. is thinking about inducing around 38 due to my hypothyroidism and GD. LO is still almost 2 weeks ahead and heavy (32 week appt he was almost 5lbs). My 6 week due date is becoming less and less at each appt and it scared the crap outta me!

  • No no no.  Last pregnancy I was all eager to meet my baby, I was convinced at 37 weeks he would be here any minnute.  This time she better stay in until at least my due date.  Too....many....things...to...do...

    I've been talking about this. Sometime next month we will be having babies

    It's a BOY










  • I'm glad to know I'm not the only one freaking out, sometimes I feel like I am the only one. We have nearly everything we plan on getting, but mentally I'm not prepared. I went into L&D last week with PTL and flipped out, cried, etc. I still have 8 weeks until my EDD, at this point I'm just hoping to make it 3 more weeks. Not to mention at my ultrasound 2 weeks ago approximate weight was already 4.5lbs. I'm just not ready for this.

  • I am with you.  I am due May 20th, but have a csection scheduled May 15th.  Then last week my BP spiked again and my doc is talking about "getting me to 37 weeks"....um, that is April 28th.

    I have no bag packed and I started to freak out.

    But, I still am in denial because I came home that night and laid my tired, swollen ass down.

    I've never been so glad to be due at the end of May as I am now that it's April.


    Same here! Due June 1 actually. But I'm also trying to determine what 2 more months of getting bigger and more exhausted will feel like. Eek!

  • You would think having less than a month to go would motivate me to finish the nursery and do all the other stuff that needs done (like find the box of baby clothes) but ... no. Still going to lie down as soon as I get home and rest until it's time to go to bed. Oops.

    Can get done at all.

  • My midwife is going to "get things going" at 37 weeks because 38 weeks is my "term" I've had 2 babies by 38 weeks and this baby is measuring in the 91st percentile... I am 34 weeks so only 3 weeks away.... WHAATTT

  • Yeah....I'm having a baby this month. As in 28 days and my DD will be here. Holy crap!!!
  • I'm due May 8th, but DS came at 37+3, which puts me at Easter with this little one.  I know that what happened last time has zero bearing on when this LO will come, but I will seriously be surprised if I make it into May.  I felt majorly freaked out yesterday when I realized I could easily have a baby THIS MONTH!

  • Wow! It didn't really sink in until I read that. Well, that really puts things in perspective.
  • Umm I'm confused. I thought you all were just here hanging out and I was the only SS that was pregnant.
