Must be comfortable in there

hey all out there in the bump community! I am 38wks and 5d and I'm telling you this boy must me comfortable in there! I have done almost all I can think of to help with labor and still nothing yet! My doctor swept my membrane last Thursday had contractions all weekend went in Sunday night for lack of movement and he was just snug as a bug in there, still only dilated to 1cm, I have had all the sex ate pineapple and spicy food done acupressure and reflexology and still nothing, but As long as he his still getting healthy all is well, just so over being pregnant! I'm due March 27 so there isn't a huge rush to get him out he's just so tall he pushed on both ends! Anyone else due the 27th or around there? How are you all feeling?!? I know we are all excited to meet our little ones! Any tips for sleep?

Re: Must be comfortable in there

  • Due the 29th but in the same boat as everyone else still pregnant at this point. Sleepless, anxious, miserable, and in pain. Might I add completely sick of hearing "any day now" or "it won't be long now", how excited everyone else is as if I'm not!

  • I think I feel the pain the most I was due the 9th and don't get induced until the 22nd I'm 41 weeks 2 days and still feel nothing 3cm dialated ..my baby is to comfortable I swear I'm ready to meet this little boy
  • Oh my gosh girl why are they making you wait so long after your due date?!? I am so sorry I would hate to be that past due! As for the omg your still pregnant comments there are a few people I'd like to punch when they say it everyday or the oh no baby yet?!? It's like duh people if I had the baby last night lord knows I would not be here the next day!
  • I have no clue I just want to cry ! This sucks this is my first and it makes me not want anymore having to wait this long ! I'm so frustrated I had a countdown until the 9th and had my hopes up this sucks !!! But right I wouldn't hop right back on this maybe in a month or so
  • I'm due the 27th too...I feel nothing going on...feel like I'm going to be pregnant forever ;-) I'm getting a lot of BH's and some achiness, but that is it.  Haven't had any cervical checks, so I don't know if anything is going on down there.  
    PPD/PPA Mom...it has been super hard, but I'm making it! Slow steps...

  • @mybabylove3415 I had the same thought when I left my OB appt today and was told I'd need to wait until next week to be induced. I was due on 3/15, so not quite as overdue, but after the anticipation and waiting eight weeks with preterm labor and constant contractions, I am not planning on repeating this any time soon! I know for certain that it is not just a miscalculated due date after two early u/s confirming an earlier date than the 15th, so I can't even take solace in that! I just want to be done and was prepared for Friday, but when they said I'd need to wait until Monday I just couldn't help but start sobbing.
  • awww i feel you ladies! the best thing for sleep i have found is calcium supplements - that said I am about to go on a long walk, every little bit of gravity helps i guess...
  • I'm also due on the 27th, Ive been 1cm since week 35. Nothing has changed in starting to think she wants to stay in till April.
  • Hi Ladies, in the same boat.  Im due this Saturday, the 21st, but I have gotten absolutely no indications that she's getting ready to make an appearance any time soon.  It's so frustrating and I just feel more uncomfortable with each passing day.  I'm hoping that this Saturday when I see my doctor, he'll tell me that I meet the requirements for elective induction (which I didn't meet last week, unfortunately).  Fingers crossed!
  • Because of my gestational dieabetes and not having good numbers, he will be Inducing me On Monday. I just found out and I'm in shock I hadn't even thought about being induced. I'm freaking out now
  • Due the 21st and he still shows no sign of coming despite my best efforts lol
  • Oh yeah...and the constant "where's that baby?" Joke makes me want to hurt people. -_-
  • Glad to hear that I'm not the only one feeling "done" with this pregnancy, everyday I spend hoping today is the day! The contractions will turn into real labor and we will meet our boy then nothing
  • Glad I'm not the only one in this boat of being so ready to have baby out.
    Due the 27th, dilated to a 4 since Monday (3 1/2 for the week prior to that and 80% effaced), membranes swept Monday. They scheduled me for induction Wednesday morning, called and said to wait because they had 2 other inductions still happening, said maybe the afternoon, then rescheduled to Thursday morning, then rescheduled for the afternoon, then rescheduled for Friday morning (this morning) and then pushed it off until later this morning before calling to tell me to plan to come in Monday morning. (They keep putting it off because they have had so many people come in while in labor that they don't want to try and induce me and be too far over extended staffing wise - feeling like everyone but me is having a baby...).
    They keep saying to come in if my water breaks or if I start contractions but since we were monitored yesterday (worried I might have preeclampsia because of a long lasting headache - but no high blood pressure) for an hour and baby just powered through and there wasn't a single contraction recorded. I have tried everything I can think of (though I draw the line at castor oil personally) and am about ready to scream while waiting. Not to mention, the doctors haven't thought id make it this far along so my parent have been here a week and have to leave before Monday (thankfully, I have good parents, happy to have them here, but they live 10+ hours away so they can't really just go home). This baby is content as can be and I am beyond ready to have her out. Emotions = fried. Deep breaths...
  • I'm due March 30th. Baby Boy is still high. No signs of him coming this weekend. He's teaching us patience already.
  • I was due March 24th with my second child... As of yesterday I am 3cm and 50% effaced and now scheduled for induction Tuesday morning if he doesn't come sooner. I too have tried it all and am still quite sure he will hang out where it is warm until he is forced to come out into the world! I'm 40 weeks and 4 days today!!
  • Good luck to you all still waiting! And, if it helps at all, I went into labor the night before I was supposed to be induced. And I had convinced myself that it simply was not going to happen on its own. So you really never know! But one way or the other, the end will come.
  • March 27th as well! I'm super anxious and not feeling much of anything. Friday doctor said I was at a 2 and his head was-1. Definitely tired of everyone asking me many times a day if I feel anything ... Driving me crazy!! Just wanna see my baby boy!
