Originally I thought I'd go a little early, but I honestly have no idea now. As of last Tuesday, I was 1.5cm and 50% effaced... hoping for more tomorrow. They talked about a possible induction due to HBP/gestational hypertension, but I really want to avoid that. I also have an ultrasound tomorrow to check for growth, so fingers crossed that all looks good. I will say that she felt quite a bit lower at points this weekend and I had more BH than normal (especially yesterday). I'm hoping we're revving up for the real deal!
I also have an inside baby at 36w2d, edd on the 23rd. I have my first internal check and the group b test tomorrow, so we will see what the OB says. Baby is moving around a lot and sometimes she is more head down, others she is putting tons of pressure on my left hip, which indicates a transverse/oblique position. If she is not head down tomorrow, I will be sent for an u/s.
I do think that I will go about a week early. I am shooting a wedding on Saturday and I have a huge work thing on Monday, so I will spend a lot of time being very active in the next week and I think then things will get moving. I know that I will not be going more than 2 days past my edd. I am 35(AMA) and had so many issues getting pregnant they don't want to wait and have more problems arise. Plus DH has a work trip on sept 2, so it would be nice to have a few days at home before he has to leave!

I'm 37 wks & 4 days atm, measuring ahead 2 wks on my fundal height - which I know isn't an exact science. I keep feeling like I'm going to go early, but that's probably FTM hopes lol
37+2 no indications he's coming early but I still think he'll be early. Maybe I'm just an optimist. EDD 8/16. Last week he measured 7.2. I haven't had an internal and I think I'll decline if offered. Just waiting. Last day of work will hopefully be this Thursday.
I am 36 weeks and 3 days due August 21st. This is my first so I do not know if I will go early or not. My DH was three weeks early and I was only a week so we will see.
I'm still here...and happy to have a inside baby still (so much left to do!). I'm not due till 8/30 so I am one of the last A14 mama's due...honestly I think I will end up with a September baby. I went to 42 weeks with DD, so I am expecting to go over with this one too.

Hi, baby girl is still inside. EDD is 8/22, and I'm 36.5 weeks now. I have felt awful because of high blood pressure and am really slowing down. I have no evidence for thinking I'll go early, but I think I will. I have had very few contractions but baby has dropped, and I don't feel myself. If BP stays up, they will induce me, though, so I am trying to rest and get it down.
38+4, and surprised. I'm a STM, first was born at 38wks. At my 36 week midwife appt I was 4 cm dilated, 50% effaced, -1 station...and I'm still there. Have lost my mucus plug 3 times, had bloody show twice, contractions off and on for 2 weeks...and I'm still here.
I'm feeling like a kettle of water that never comes to a boil...

"Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian." --Dennis Wholey
My EDD is 9/3, but that had changed after I had introduced myself and got familiar on here. I just didn't want to leave, plus baby has measured big the whole time.
At an appointment almost two weeks ago the doctor checked me because of some things going on. I was already dilating, he told me he would fall over shocked if I make it to then.
I'm still pregnant too. I'm 36 weeks and 2(?) days, due August 23rd. I go back and forth hoping she comes early so I can meet her and start getting comfortable again, and then panicking that I'm not ready and we need more time. I haven't had any contractions or BH or anything, also she's been low and pressing on a nerve causing lightening crotch for the last 2 months, so I can't even imagine her getting any lower at this point. She's measured exactly on schedule this whole time, so she'll probably come around her due date.
I'm here, 36+1 today, EDD of 8/24. I have an ultrasound tonight and am so curious to see baby. At my 34 week ultrasound she was 7 pounds. No CS scheduled, just growing a big baby!
Sooooo, who's still got an inside baby?! I do I do!
How far along are you/EDD? 37w3d
Do you think you're going to make it to your EDD? Or, do you have a CS or RCS scheduled? I am really hoping I don't make it to my due date bc I have been having contractions on and off since last Wednesday and it is starting to get annoying but I probably will.
For the longest time I thought I would go early, but with only 6 days left I'm starting to worry that I'll go over. At my appointment last week, my OB asked if I wanted her to strip my membranes. I said "no", but I have a feeling she'll ask again tomorrow. I kind of thinking I'll wait until I'm over my due date until I let her do it, but I'm so ready for an outside baby!
Baby's due date was moved from August 1st to July 27th around my 20 week appointment, but I like you and I'm staying (even if I mostly lurk) lol. I'm a FTM and would bet my life savings that he's going to be an August baby anyway. So still inside for me at 40 + 1
36w2d, EDD Aug 23rd, little while to go, can't wait to set a leave date for work! hoping to get a better idea of expectations at tomorrow's appointment
Still here! I'm 37w 4d, and last week was half a centimeter dilated. Everyone thinks I'll go early because she is measuring large, and I'm carrying so low, but at my appt the doctor said her head is not engaged yet. Of course, all of that info means absolutely nothing, so I have no idea if I'll be early or not! I'm just hoping I go into labor on my own, and not too late.
Another one due 8/28... I don't think they will let me go over since I have GD... And blood pressure keeps going up and down... They are watching baby like a hawk with weekly NST and ultrasounds...we still need to finish the nursery so I hope she stays in there a little longer
I am 36 weeks today too! I feel like he'll be late, seems to be pretty content in there and I haven't felt any braxton hicks or anything like that yet. I don't know if that means anything one way or the other...
I'm still here. My EDD is tomorrow 7/29 and I'm pretty sure I'm going over again. I have my 40 week tomorrow so we will see what my OB says. I have a lot of energy the last few days and I lost my mucus plug, so I'm hopeful something will happen soon!
38 weeks today and I feel like it will. Never. Get. Here.
Unless they decide she's huge at the ultrasound next week and schedule an eviction notice, I'll be late. (I've had two births that resulted in one 2-3rd degree epi cut and a 2/3rd degree repeat tear, and I'm concerned about tearing further since baby is already huge).
Still inside at 38+5 days and due 8/6! I was hoping for an outside baby just because I want baby girl to have her own day and August is jam packed with birthdays in our family... and she may just be one, but we'll see!!
i'm 36 weeks + 4 days! i have a feeling baby girl is going to be a few days early. hopefully not much earlier than that, as mama has a LOT left to do. trying to enjoy our last couple of weeks as a family of 3, but the heat is really getting to me and i am sick of sweating!
looking forward to a glass of wine, sushi, and runny eggs (not all together).
I'm 38w tomorrow and he's still inside. My due date is Aug 12th, but I have a scehdueld induction on Aug 7th so he will be here in 10 days or less. I am dilated to a 1, 50% effaced and lost my plug. But my contractions are so sporadic that I don't think he will be coming any sooner than the 7th.
36w4d here! Edd of 8/21. Family members seen to think she'll be a couple weeks early, but I have no idea. 50% effaced and beginning to dilate. I'm preparing to go over so that I'll be pleasantly surprised if she comes before then.
Inside baby still here! I'm also amazed at all the July babies!
How far along are you/EDD? 39ks 1 day. EDD of 8/3
Do you think you're going to make it to your EDD? Looks like we will right now!! Going to the doctor tomorrow morning and I'm guessing we will have a discussion about what happens next. I have been clear with expressing my desire to have as few interventions as possible, so I'm guessing we'll just ride it out for as long as it takes.
Another August 19 EDD here! I'm pretty sure I'll make it to my EDD (and maybe beyond), but who knows. She's super low already - my midwives felt her shoulders where they thought her head would be. I know that doesn't mean she'll come early, but hopefully she'll come out quickly!
38 weeks, 1 day here with an EDD of Aug 10th. It doesn't seem like much is happening at the moment. The pregnancy has gone really well so far, so I'm expecting to make it to my EDD.. I'm guessing +/- a few days, but who knows, I could be a week or more late. Definitely want to be done by 41 weeks so I don't have to go down the induction road. But hopefully the full moon/supermoon will work in my favor!

I'm still here! Due August 1 but kind of hoping she comes a tiny bit early because I am so uncomfortable. My last DD was born 3 days after her due date this one will probably do the same :-(
Re: Who's left?! (Check in!)

36w3d. EDD is 8/23. I have a feeling I'm going to make it to my due date. A few BH here and there but nothing major at this point.
I'm so lucky that he will probably come later then sooner!
