How many are still waiting?

LaBellaVida · January 2015

I know a lot of us are still waiting for our babies, but I wanted to create a poll to see how many.

readyforround2 · January 2015

EDD is today. I'm hoping by some miracle she decides to make her entrance because the whole start contracting and get excited only to stop contracting a couple hours later is getting really old.

Jellybean707 · January 2015

Still waiting but I'm also only 39 weeks.

LaBellaVida · January 2015

Still waiting here.
I feel ya @kmf218‌ I got my membranes swept last Wednesday. I told my H on Friday we'd have a baby that night or Saturday. Nothing! My contractions basically stopped. Then I had a few on Sunday, and yesterday. Got swept again yesterday, only to be contracting randomly.
Either they need to stop, or be the real deal already!

stephchris0321 · January 2015

Still waiting. Due date Jan 29th. I might have a Super Bowl baby! LOL!

readyforround2 · January 2015

@LaBellaVida‌ yeah that would definitely upset me. I hope you don't have to wait too much longer!

I think I might end up getting swept at my appt tomorrow. I sent my H a text at work every time I had a contraction yesterday, but I told him not to get too excited because even though they were intensifying they weren't getting closer together. Unfortunately, I didn't take my own advice and when they stopped I bawled my eyes out for a good half hour. The waiting and false alarms are officially the worst part of my pregnancy.

Eyefrog · January 2015

edd is Jan 25th

nothing happening here and haven't been checked.

misslizzy82 · January 2015

Still waiting... sometimes I think she's coming today and other times I think I'll have to be induced... I'm so tired of everyone at work asking me when she's going to come. If I could predict that, I would be rich!!!

JessHy2012 · January 2015

EDD was yesterday and I'm still waiting...dilated to 1 but I'm only having random contractions. I hope things pick up and get moving!

LuckyPenny1231 · January 2015

Due tomorrow. Having random period cramps but that's about it.

WormyGo · January 2015

Not due until the 30th so still 1.5 weeks. Plus nothing happening as far as contractions. I have this feeling I may have a Feb baby.

mali3 · January 2015

Still waiting - RCS is 1/28, but been contracting for 19 hours now and they are about 9 to 11 mins apart, so just made the call about when I should come in. THey said why they get to 7 to go in...so could very well be having baby today.

LaBellaVida · January 2015

@kmf218‌ I have an induction I'd like to avoid scheduled for Friday.
I can always cancel it though, so I'm not sure yet if I'm gonna go through with it yet or not.
I'm only 39 +1, and I've been advised to not go past 40 weeks by my mw, and mfm. So even if I cancel Fridays induction. .. I'll end up being induced on Monday anyway if he doesn't come over the weekend.

readyforround2 · January 2015

@LaBellaVida‌ I want to avoid induction as well, but if she doesn't come tonight then tomorrow at my appt I'll have to schedule a date. Have you been induced before?

Yes. With my 1st. It was horrible! Pitocin sucks!
However, this will be my 4th baby. .. I'm already 3 cm and 60% so if I am induced it'll likely go very quick.

But anything can happen, and it could be unsuccessful also.

Ok, I knew you had LOs already but I couldn't remember if they all came without assistance or not. 3cm and 60% is promising! At my last check I was 1 and a half and 50% so part of me is preparing to have to be induced unless the contractions I had yesterday made me progress more.
Of course at this point everyone I know who had to be induced with their first is coming out of the wood work to tell me their story and I'm officially terrified.

This is me too. I'm due tomorrow and I'm SO done with the false labor twice a day, every single day.

LegallyMom · January 2015

Yep, EDD was 1/13, been at 3.5 and 50% since 12/30, and had a membrane sweep last week. Contractions on and off for the last THREE WEEKS and still no baby...

sunnysunsun · January 2015

I go by two two due dates for fun! We have our due date that is based off our LMP and the one that was given to us at a second trimester ultrasound. We stay with our original, but it's fun to follow both. If I follow the second one. I'm due tomorrow, if not I'm due Monday!

misslizzy82 · January 2015

My two dates LMP and Ultrasound are 9 days apart. I'm either 3 days over (LMP) or still have 5 more days (Ultrasound Date)

misslizzy82 · January 2015

I'm actually surprised so many are still waiting!

Jen524 · January 2015

Still waiting. Four days over. I have been having contractions for 4 weeks. The last week I have had them where I was getting ready to go in because they were 3-4 minutes apart and getting stronger. Then they just stopped. Extremely frustrating.

Jellybean707 · January 2015

I also have 2 dates. Based on LMP I am due tomorrow. Based on 8 week ultrasound I'm due in a week. I prefer today

Me too. It seems like everyone has delivered around here already.

48 seems like a lot for the last two weeks of the month, or I just didn't realize our group was so big...

Yeah. Or lurkers are voting too. I should have made an SS options.

49 seems like a lot considering how slow this board has been!

sunnysunsun · January 2015

Is it's because a lot of the most active posters have had their babies, so it feels slow around here?

probably. I'm sure that's what it is.

Smelh324 · January 2015

Still waiting! Due next Friday!! 1/30. That's the first time I've been able to say next week to "someone" which is really exciting. Thought my water was leaking yesterday. Turns out your plug can start coming out very watery in gushes too. Apparently! Good to know lol, thanks triage nurse :-??

Bigboneded · January 2015

I was due 1/27, but delivered at 35 weeks in Dec, we had a lot due end of month as I remember from spreadsheet. ...

tanya_erin · January 2015

Due tomorrow, but didn't think I'd make it to due date! My last baby was 6 days early...

marvan5 · January 2015

Due Friday! And as I read through this LO is head butting my cervix, reminding me she's working on it! I hope she arrives this week, but I have a feeling since the Hawks made it to the Super Bowl (again!!!) I will be in labor that weekend. I've had this gut feeling this whole time that scenario would play out, and so far... IT'S HAPPENING!!

Daniel&Naomi · January 2015

40+2 today, RCS scheduled for Friday at 40+5...

My H said I would be in labor during the championship game. Nope. But I'm surprised baby didn't fall right out, with all the jumping I was doing right at the end!
Lol.

LeLoLa · January 2015

Due date was 18th Jan. Still waiting,
no signs! May have a sweep thursday, hopefully not! Tried all the remedies!! Getting impatient!

marvan5 · January 2015

@LaBellaVida My baby actually dropped that night! I know it was from all the jumping around I did. My dad was wondering how on earth it wasn't "time" then, as well! The excitement of waiting for this baby AND waiting for the Super Bowl is paramount!!!

LittleB92 · January 2015

EDD 1/16. Induction set for 1/25. LO came on his own today!

GromMom · January 2015

I'm not due till the 28th, but getting impatient because ds was 11 days early, and I have a bad back and sciatica. Tbh at this point I almost want to go over because dh's parents are coming to help us around the first of Feb and this way I wouldn't have to worry about dropping ds off with friends to babysit when i I go into labor.
No labor signs yet though.

kilayla13 · January 2015

I'm still waiting as well. Due next week between the 26-28. Its more fun because those three days are from my visits. The 27th is the recent one. So that has been what I've been using.
I do not feel different... I have a appointment and ultrasound on Thursday so I'll see how I'm doing... this pregnancy is dragging on.

aremac · January 2015

My LMP and ultrasound dates are only a day apart, jan 30 or 31.

morrones8 · January 2015

Due on the 28th... So far no real contractions or any signs of labor... Betting on a Feb baby and likely a Super Bowl baby since my Patriots are in it again!
