Labor Buddies List Update in OP!

jg1011 · June 2014

Ok... I'm going to play too!

I'm due 9/10 but will have a RCS week of 9/2-- still deciding on date-- however my Ob feels based on Pre- E with HELLP history that I can go as early as August.

I'm AMA and high risk. This is my 2nd. I'm on east coast (Long Island).

I really have no preference--- group or individual is fine with me---just no crazies please!

Thanks @mrsdanielleM2010‌ for doing this!

dinodna3 · June 2014

I'm in!

FTM due on 9/21

Live in South Florida and I would prefer a fellow east coaster.

I have no preference on group or one-on-one.

deviousmuse · June 2014

Yes, please!!!

I'm 9/17 in Atlanta (Eastern time zone), though likely looking to move to Jacksonville before the LO comes (holy crap, I can't believe it!).

katiedollaz · June 2014

In due 9/29. I'm fine with group or 1:1 and I'm on Az time.

Irisheyes1247 · June 2014

Oh, me please!

I'm due 9/1 with baby#3

Living in NY, so EST

Group or one-on-one is fine

Thank you!

Texasgurly0313 · June 2014

EDD is 9/3. I'm in HST (3 hours behind PST, 6 hours behind EST). I really don't have a preference on who I'm matched up with though.

larkin2 · June 2014

Would love to be included. FTM, going for a natural birth but that doesn't have to be put into consideration. My EDD is September 15th, live in Missouri/Central Time Zone. I don't mind if its a group or 1:1.

EDIT: I forget things. Alot.

punnybunny · June 2014

I think I want in (FTM so a little unsure what to expect). I have no preference 1:1 or group. EDD 9/29. I'm in central time zone (Louisiana).

MMason12 · June 2014

EDD = Sept 29th
Time Zone or even City/State = Mid-Michigan Area
If possible I would like a PGAL lady but I'm not picky. :-)

Thanks!

mana8503 · June 2014

Thanks for setting this up!

EDD - Sept 16th

Im in Maryland (est) but doesn't matter to me.

crystangel · June 2014

I would like to be part of this too! EDD is September 27, mountain time zone, AZ, and group or 1on1 would be fine. Not that it is super crucial, but if there are any other natural birth moms out there that want to buddy up, would be the only special request, but again, not a big deal, all birth stories are great births!

NYGirl02 · June 2014

I'd love a labor buddy! EDD 9/19 Time Zone or even City/State: eastern/Ohio No real special requests. I'm planning a med free birth and taking Bradley classes, if that helps at all.

armylove240 · June 2014

EDD 9/2, and I would like to be in a group. I'm in GA/east coast if someone else prefers a local, but I have no preference.

@katiedollaz You haven't posted here once or at all since Sep 2013. Why do you want a labor buddy? AAnnnnnd AZ isn't a time zone.

LindsayMae84 · June 2014

I want in, please! My EDD is Sept 04. No special requests for me. Thank you!!

slowmo · June 2014

I'm in! I'm a FTM with an EDD of 9/22. I'm on Eastern time, but I work overnight shifts so it really doesn't matter. No preferences!

Also, serious props to @mrsdaniellem2010 for taking on this task!

anne0709 · June 2014

This is great, please count me in.

EDD: 9/18/14
I'm 37 so they say I'm high risk
I'm going for natural birth at a birth center with a midwife
I guess that's it!

I forgot to mention this- I'm trying for a natural birth as well- so wouldn't mind being matched with someone/group that is doing the same!!!

emmylu30 · June 2014

Thanks for taking this on. Due date 9/1, live in Kansas City (CST), would prefer a group, I have been high risk on and off this pregnancy but do not have a preference regarding fellow high risk buddies.

Nataliejean30 · June 2014

What exactly is a labor buddy? I'm due September 26th

You should probably read the original post that says, "please read before you post".

mrsH1112 · June 2014

How did I not respond to this before? Haha.

Im in!

Im due 9/26. Im a FTM with a baby boy on the way. I have gestational diabetes and am 34 which makes my dr put me at high risk status. So there is a chance that my LO will come a little early depending on his size. Right now he's a little guy in the 50th percentile but we'll keep an eye on him. Im in the central time zone (Chicago area)

Im not picky about who I get paired with. Id probably perfer a group but it its a 1:1 Im fine with that.

Thanks for coordinating everything!

anewadventure · June 2014

ms. danielle, i think you are a saint for putting this together. it seems a daunting task!

i'm down for one or multiple LBs. here are my "stats"...

due sept 15, FTM, it's a boy. I am EST (dc metro area). i don't particularly care about time zone. i also love breakfast food, har har, as evidenced by the waffle house discussion that dearfoam set off. i'm a monday ticker change gal.

erm, i'm actually kind of nervous about this? awkwarddd. i guess i'd prefer to actually recognize the name of the person(s) i'm lumped with. :-/

Mrs.Leah.Maria · June 2014

Due 9/19 and would love someone in CST, who loves birth photography, sushi, running and MN cabins.

Or, let's just keep it to CST and a med-free mama.

ritzgrrl · June 2014

I'd like a labor buddy! My EDD is 9/6. I live in Wisconsin/Central time zone, but that's not a requirement for me.

ETA: It might be cool to be paired with another STM (or third, or whatever), but also not a requirement. I can bestow my wisdom (LOL yeah...) on a FTM, too.

I still keep in touch with my labor buddies from four years ago, so I'm excited to have a new one(s) for this time around!

wrightpalomo · June 2014

Yay! Thanks for organizing this

My EDD is 9/7 and I live in San Francisco (I'd be happy with being matched with any time zone though!) FTM and I would like a group but will be happy with 1 on 1 as well.

LSN8308 · June 2014

Count me in

EDD 9/3 with twins, team purple!
Live in Indiana, CST. Don't care about time zones.
Prefer groups.

Thanks and GL on taking this on! @mrsdanielleM2010‌

Ecat504 · June 2014

Also I'm trying for a natural birth could I maybe be paired with someone/group that is too. If not nbd.

mrsdanielleM2010 · June 2014

@melw629 I will match anyone who wants a buddy, have no fear! Buddies for everyone!

cornflwr33 · June 2014

Count me in! I'm due sept 1 with my first. I live in Maine so I'm on est.

Roxanne

Groxb · June 2014

I'm super sad-panda that I missed 4 pages of gif fun. I need to stop being so MIA.

This is me, running into the thread, realizing I missed gifs, and dying inside.

rae+rob · June 2014

Hi, this is my first post - I don't know all the acronyms yet. Due 9/18 would like a labor buddy or group- located on west chester pa, outside of Philadelphia

This is exactly why I'm hesitant to sign up for a labor buddy.

@mrsdanielleM2010‌ is cool. She's putting all the randos together.

If only we could automatically filter their labor updates and birth stories...while I want everyone to have safe deliveries, why do they think we care about the details at this point?

Don't worry! One of the columns in my spreadsheet is post count - you'd get a good one.

purplestarz · June 2014

Ok, I'll bite. I've been a little hesitant but I think I might be sad in the end if I don't do this. DH will think this is weird, but whatevs.

I'm a FTM due 9/14. Oregon resident. Another west coaster would be fun, though not required. I would prefer a small group. Uhhh...I think that's it.

OK, you twisted my arm.

Due 9/12 with baby #2

AMA

Pacific time zone

Though the only preference I have is to be paired with a small group.

And thanks for coordinating this!
