37 weeks today, a winter melon!! I'm officially (early) "full term". Baby needs to keep cooking though

This past week I preregistered at the hospital and that made it feel so real that it is happening VERY soon. Doctor said I'm now 60% effaced and 2 cm dilated. Not worried about going early at all. Only 21 days left!! Where is everyone else at?

36 weeks on Tuesday, so a honeydew. It's not easy...being green...

I found out Friday that we're doing an induction at 38 weeks due to my diabetes, so I have no idea if we'll be doing cervical checks or not. Regardless, I have only 17 days left, as I'll be induced the day before Thanksgiving.

37 weeks and a winter melon. Wtf is a winter melon?

As long as LO cooperates we have 2 weeks until induction. Having Braxton hicks and my hips feel like I'm 90 yr old

36 weeks! RCS is December 1st. Getting all the last minute things done. Especially the hospital bag packed due to the random hbp that they're not too worried about since it's the only symptom of preterm labor I have. I'm not wanting to take any chances so taking it easy these last few weeks.

Will be 37 weeks this week, so between honeydew and winter melon. Google + wikipedia say that a winter melon is also known as a honeydew -- which is BS b/c I don't know of any 19" long honeydews.

Also @allitor12 & @leosmom25 -- is hip joint pain a sign of BH or random contractions? A few times every day I randomly feel like this stabby pain where the inside of my thigh connects to my ladyparts... seems way too low for LO to be kicking but about the intensity as if some jerk was trying to rip my leg off. Good times.

@2JEL I'm not sure about allitor but mine is more like an achey, hips being spread really far apart feeling that is there all the time and gets worse when I'm sleeping or walking.

36 weeks today. Only 8 long shifts left until maternity leave. I've got the painful old lady hips going on. No fun. I've been really lucky with an easy pregnancy so far, this last week has hit me like a ton of bricks. Pain and serious heartburn 24/7.

feeshah · November 2014

35 weeks today. I've got a lovely bunch of Coconuts! Well, just one coconut

A coconut that can somehow kick my ribs AND headbut my bladder at the same time.
BH are a daily thing for sure. I average about 6-7 noticeable ones a day. I have also had a few narley painful ones and they remind me what is in store.
Oh and my hips. Yea those hurt.

I know that feeling. At least I think I do, I describe it as feeling like I've pulled a groin muscle on both sides. Sound about right? I chalk it up to everything loosening, preparing for birth and heavy belly/baby pressure. I've also got the feeling of achy hips were they feel like they're being spread apart. Lovely isn't it?

37 WEEKS! Only 3-5 weeks left O_O

It's so close now! I'm both really ready to not be pregnant anymore and really wanting more time. I've already sent out my "to those who are visiting" email with a request for them to get the flu vaccine.
Am I the only one getting nervous? I keep thinking of a 100 things I want to study/finish up before he gets here. Stay and cook just a little longer baby!

rshamos · November 2014

36 weeks and 1 day! I have my appointment tomorrow to see where Chalupa is. Last time he was butt down. Hospital bag is all packed now. Just need to go to Target tomorrow to buy new underwear (my treat to myself). I am surprisingly calm about having a baby. I'm sure I will start to freak out more once labor hits.

No way you're not the only one getting nervous! My son and husband were both soundly sleeping last night (which is not normal for my sleep hating son) and I was wide awake at 4:30 with this looming feeling that I had zero days left and baby was coming today. I'm sooooo glad I was wrong but yikes I'm panicked.

@MissChristineMarie I hate to break it to you, but you may never be emotionally ready for your little guy :-)

Thanks @leosmom25 -- I have that also in addition to the specific stabby pain.

@SLC1102 Now that I think about it, it does only seem to happen when I am up and moving, it happens a couple times in a minute and then goes away for a while. It happens almost exclusively on my right side (I'd say like 90% of my aches and pains are on the right), so I suspect it's just stuff getting out of alignment and not contractions.

@ebl2 Yeah, I think we're experiencing the same thing except that I have pulled a groin muscle and this feels significantly more sharp pain for a split second, and (at least for me) not constant ache every time I move. It's actually on the side where I did pull my groin muscle 18mo ago, so it could be related.

At this point, I'm trying to look at the positive and be excited every time I move and don't feel pain.

Will be 33 weeks Wednesday. Another 12/31 due date. Growth scan Wedsnesday but still have lots to do. The crib is bought but not put together. Still a lot cleaning to do and things to buy. Maybe I will get some deals black friday. Needless to say I am not ready.

racheldiaries · November 2014

36 weeks today. Officially hit that uncomfortable stage where pelvic pressure has made it uncomfortable to do anything even sleep. Boo.

@2jel this is how mine is too. And when I get up from laying or sitting for awhile I feel like I'm a creaky old lady
