Pregnancy: The Ultimate Waiting Game

in May 2015 Moms
Anyone else feeling the way they did when they first thought they were pregnant? The constant googling "Is this a sign of early labour?" feels so similar to "Is this a sign of early pregnancy?"

I'm finding myself constantly googling my "symptoms" hoping that everyone else in Internet land will have had the same thing as me and their baby came within X amount of days. And hoping that I'll get a definitive answer that yes, this means baby WILL be here in X amount of time - no questions asked. Ha yeah right!

Lost part of my mucus plug yesterday and it had some bloody show in it. So that set off a whole new sets of Google questions.

Tell me I'm not alone in this!!! Pregnancy is the ultimate waiting game. You wait for the stick to change colour, you wait to announce, you wait for the morning sickness to be over, you wait for that first ultrasound, you wait for water to break (or any other sign of labour) and then you wait to hold LO in your arms.

I can't wait!! :)

    I agree. It stays like this once baby is here as you go through the stages too. We are so close though!

    Oh well! I'm not a patient person at all, so this is sad for me and very true. Have been on this app searching for signs and reading birth stories to no end. What I learned is that every pregnancy and every labor is different, don't expect anything to go by the book. Wish you a fast and easy labor!

    Yep, I like to think it's 9 months of preparing us to be more patient people for our little ones. I feel like I've changed as a person over the past few months and just hope that I am ready to be the best mom I can be.

    This is going to sound so corny, but try not to play your life like a waiting game and the next stage. That's really hard to do at this point in pregnancy. Try to enjoy the kicks and movements. I missed them when they weren't there after my first baby (although a snuggly baby is awesome too.)
    You can always be waiting for something else to happen in your life. But then you more what's happening now.
    Ok I'm done with the corny words of wisdom. And yes, I'm sick of waiting to find out how this chapter will end! (Go into labor by myself/induced/c section???)
