I was granted my wish this morning! Got up with cramps around 1:15 am and my water broke. No mistaking it, so we've been at the hospital since 2 am waiting for our little man to be ready. I guess maybe my cramps yesterday WERE contractions.
I was just checked about 20 minutes ago, I'm between 4 & 5 cm dilated. Epidural are magic. So excited!

My Angel - Amelia Hope - 3/13/14, 22 weeks
BFP #2 - 6/10/14 Hoping for our rainbow baby due February 2015
We have snow here all day today and travel warnings. As much as I would like LO to come already, I do not want to travel 45 minutes to the hospital today in this snowstorm. So instead, I am enjoying a cozy day with DH and DD.
My spam is that I'm 38+5 and I feel like I've officially hit a wall. I haven't exercised in 3 days, my eating has been terrible and I'm just in a major funk. I know I will feel better mentally if I treat myself better physically so my goal for the day is to get it together and get back on track. Mind over matter. I just ate a healthy breakfast, am heading to the gym now and planning to take the kids to the park to get some fresh air this afternoon.
I'm also really starting to regret not scheduling my RCS right at 39 weeks. I chose to push it to my due date and I still believe that was the right decision but the days are just dragging and I'm feeling so over being pregnant!
I'm really hoping labor is coming soon! I've had a super easy pregnancy and it's all suddenly hitting me. I feel like the princess and the pea trying to sleep; everything is just so sensitive.
I think my cats are able to tell something is changing soon, which is a positive because they're sooo cuddly. If I can't sleep it at least helps to have a warm purring cat next to me:) Poor things are going to be so taken aback by the tiny screaming thing that'll be taking their place in my lap!
@junebugjam I'm so excited for you! I hope everything goes smoothly. Can't wait to hear your announcement!
We had a rough night at our house last night. C didn't fall asleep until midnight after going through 4 diapers in about 15 min. Then DS woke up around 3 and was wide awake. And poor DH had to go back to work today.

Same with my dogs! it's gotten even more lately, i'm thinking (hoping?) they know something i dont!
Today is the first actual winter weather we've had all season--so obviously I'm not dragging my 39 week pregnant self to work. They can suck it. Instead I've been laying around and drinking way too much chocolate milk, so now I'm sick to my stomach. Yay. I'm a responsible adult.
I feel like I should spend today doing squats and getting it on with DH to help bring on labor, but I just want to lay down and sleep.

Good luck @junebugjam! I am 38 + 4 and I can't sleep and am so tired during the day. I am still working and everyone keeps asking what I'm doing at work. Also, DD is 18 months and is waking up every night for the past week at 3:30 4 am wide awake! I know it's probably a sleep regression stage but I don't have the heart to listen to her cry. Her world is about to change any day now and I just let her come in our bed to cuddle and sleep the rest of the night. I know we are creating a monster but this is the only time she likes to cuddle these days and I'm taking advantage of it!
@Ace226 I know the same feeling of the princess and the pea!! I can't get comfortable and it feels off.
@yoursincelery I've been craving chocolate milk my whole pregnancy!! I drink it all the time!! Its so good!(:
My spam is im 39 weeks today and am so anxious to meet my little Matthew, that the suspense is driving me nuts!! I can't wait!! Other news is there's more trouble from my sons father. He's so pathetic and useless. He's been acting like a little high school boy, and telling everyone I told him my son isn't his. So today I got many messages asking who the father was. I want to rip him a new asshole. He has decided to ignore my message and not reply. Oh Well. I guess the DNA test that comes with child support will prove to him and everyone else, he's the father. Anyone else have Babydaddy drama? Or advice to help me with This screw up?
My spam is a rant. Alright so I have a younger cousin, he's 7 and hes a brat! I mean I feel bad saying that because I'm sure my baby won't always be a perfect angel, but this kid was never taught any discipline or how to respect peoples personal space. He never listens and is always right in your face putting his hands on you and when you ask him to stop he just doesn't, not to mention his parents see this and say nothing. He's jumped on me before and I flipped out because I'm sure you can understand why you wouldn't want a child jumping on you while pregnant. Anyways I don't trust him at all to come visit when my baby's born, I hope I'm not being harsh but I know he's gonna get all in the baby's face, touching him and such, plus he's very rough sometimes. My own mom has even told me not to trust him with the baby. I've decided that when my aunt asks to visit I'm just going to say that I don't want any kids in school coming for at least a month or two because of germs. What's really sad is that my boyfriends cousin is coming to take our newborn photos after baby's born and she has a 2 year old daughter whom I trust more with the baby than a 7 year old because she actually listens.
