^^^^ agree with all of the above. 3 days past EDD & my main symptom is jealousy & the fact that I've never wanted to feel pain so bad in my life! Come on labor!
Feeling a good bit of contractions but not consistent. It's been going on since Thursday morning. My doctor is inducing Tuesday evening if I haven't delivered by then. Oh yeah, my doctor informed me on Thursday that he would be out of town for the weekend so needless to say I'm a little worried.
For me it's denial. On one hand I want it to just happen already, on the other, I'm acting like its never going to actually happen, ie still putting off the whole relocating to my moms house thing
The last 4 nights were lots of contractions, but tonight, nothing. I'm awake with fiery heartburn, nesting by cleaning the bathroom and kitchen fixtures. Kind of wishing the pain from the last few nights would come back though. It feels like a step backwards to not have them.
So jealous!!!!!! Give me the baby! Give it to me! I can't go in for another 14 days! Shoot I thought it was 15. Good surprise just now looking at the calendar! But..... Id love for it (labor) to get started on it's own considering my baby is so low I feel like dying from pelvic pressure. I think the pressure gets my hope falsely elevated that things will start on their own.....
I cried last night due to anxiety again. Bleh. Ok.... Something positive to say....
I slept tonight from 1145 to 245-3 with only pee break being once!!!! Yay. Heartburn has been better !
Have a nice day ladies!!! @rrcameron21 when you said you have rolls on your toes...... The 90's song "let me see your tootsie roll... To the left to the left, to the front to the front..... " busted into my head!!!!! And I laughed pretty hard.
Good morning. Its 349am. I'm hungry. I don't want to get up. I want to go back to sleep. I probably won't be able to for an hour, so I should probably get up and get a snack. But then once I'm up I most likely won't be able to find sleep again. Its a vicious circle, y'all
I just ate the piece of wedding cake our guests brought back that was sitting on the counter....... Was it for me? I don't know...... Do I care? Not really. =D>
Today is my due date! I'm feeling very jealous because I just want my baby and I don't want to be pregnant anymore. In fact, I feel like crying because I have no control over it. Friday I noticed mucus/discharge that was pink and I started having contractions that felt different than BH. They were coming about every 30 minutes. Since Friday, I've have more of that discharge and the contractions seem to be getting more painful and more frequent. It has been a very SLOW process though and I'm not sure about what's happening. These contractions feel like the worst period cramps of my life. (
Five days overdue, tired, pain in hips, back and legs, but mostly feeling super jealous and emotional!
Scheduled to be induced tomorrow. I'm so excited, anxious and conflicted because I wanted things to happen on their own but at the same time I want my baby!! I haven't felt a contraction in days so I'd be surprised if this procrastinator LO decides to kick things off today. 24 hours until we bust into the hospital. Ahhh!
I'm still pregnant and pissy. 40+2 today. No contractions to even give me hope. Baby is staying forever, I have become convinced of it. I might try to waddle around the neighborhood today. That will have to pass as the walking everyone keeps telling me to do. I need a shirt that says, stop looking at me!
Still two weeks away from due date, but the anxiety of waiting for something to start is killing me. This is my second pregnancy so everyone is telling me I'll go early. But I feel nothing happening! Just some intense pelvic pressure and intense, but not painful, BH. Still have a ton to do to be prepared for baby. Lots of laundry, cleaning, packing hospital bag. Hopefully that will take my mind off the waiting torture.
A little less than 2 weeks... Still waiting for baby ! I've had zero contractions, and not even close to being dialeted...this baby doesn't want to come out.
40+1. Made it through my brothers wedding yesterday so now baby can come, like today! So ready to have my baby in my arms! As for symptoms, exhausted, awful hip pain and my poor sprained foot from a fall the other night (and being on it all day yesterday).
My symptom is I'm still pregnant! EDD was yesterday and I was hoping the little guy would come on his own but he obviously hasn't. Considering I'm going to be induced Wednesday I only have a very limited amount of time for this to happen naturally before I'm induced again * sigh*
Woke up yesterday morning and piled a bunch of pillows under my hips trying to get baby to flip, shopped for groceries and made freezer meals, then went swimming trying to get him to flip. Got a little excited because I felt his head down on the left, but this morning it's centered directly under my boobs. Why? I feel ok, back pain is pretty bad, but I am having serious anxiety about the potential of a c section. Also, if I do, this baby will be here in less than 2 weeks. I'm ready to meet him, but this makes it so real.
40+3, no contractions yesterday despite Target run, about 4 miles of walking, and Mexican food. The days before had been crazy with contractions. Total mindf*ck. Going in TONIGHT for induction, can't wait.
4 days until due date.. reality has me in an emotional whirlwind. Back & forth from GET OUT and STAY IN IM NOT READY. Im feeling super crampy and random contractions.. But nothing too exciting. Strangely comfortable being across the country from family. I feel blissfully distant. Thought it'd be hard. But its quite nice. Im still expecting to see some sort of mucus plug while whiping... But its a no go. Hmmm
At work, I have all of my open projects in a great place, so I dont feel horrible about taking time off. Now, I just want the baby to get here so they don't try to pile more on me! So, a little anxious. Not due until June 27th, so I have a ways to go! Hopefully he comes early.
Enough anxiety to eclipse the heartburn, back pain, and pelvic pressure. Like full on, "OMG what am I doing--I can't have a baby--all of my potted plants are dead" panic attacks. On the regular.
So much pelvic pressure/cramping. Still don't think I've had so much as a BH contraction, or at least not one I've noticed. 37+6 today. Was fingertip dilated on Friday so hopefully SOMETHING is happening down there.
Long walk yesterday and very nonromantic hilarious sex last night. I am so fat. Swelling continues in my hands/feet. Not sure how active I'll be today due to cramping but I at least want to grocery shop and vacuum. And then float in the lake a bit.
Super jealous of all of the ladies that have their babies...this will prob continue for weeks since I'm not due for two more weeks. Sigh.
Well after all day of pretty consistent contractions yesterday they have now stopped an my baby isn't coming also super hateful of any ladies posting birth announcements, It's ok I know it isn't there fault I am still prego. Actually I am pretty anti public right now my baby is so low I feel like a horse kicked me or he is gonna fall out. Just feeling down I guess
I've still got two weeks until EDD, also but I don't really fell like he will wait that long. I've been having contractions, but he had not dropped yet at our last appointment so there's no telling when this guy is coming. Otherwise, feeling okay today. Pain, obviously. Hungry like I've never seen food before, yup. Constant crying, of course. Baby, nope (
So tired! Pelvic hip and lower back pressure and pain last night was no joke!! It seriously had me in tears at one point, probably didn't help that I was exhausted :-< finally fell asleep around 630 so I got about 3 hrs of sleep. Then I wake up and my pain is almost completely gone. Seriously?! Why can't it happen when I'm not trying to get some sleep? Tonight is my last night sleeping in my bed before baby is here (CRAZY!!!) so I really hope I can sleep tonight. As for now, I'm off to lay by the pool and maybe take a nap if I can. 40 hours until my induction!!! Am I seriously down to an HOURS countdown?!!!! Oh man, I don't know if I'm ready to do this... :-SS
Barely getting 2 hours of sleep a night... so ready for him to be here. Also having these horrible cramp like pains that are soooooo much worse than any menstrual cramp I have ever felt. Both me and dh are ready for him to be here. Everything is set up and since it is the first boy on my side of the family the pressure that everyone is putting on mw is starting to get on my nerves. I don't wanna talk to anyone really because the Convo goes the same... "baby here yet?"
Ugh, pressure in my Virginia! My kid is going to come out with a head shaped like one of Sigourney Weaver's Aliens, all elongated and tapered. Conehead probably isn't even going to enter into it. Just, ugh! Pressure down there!
Also, earlier this morning when it was flashing and booming with the thunderstorm, I had two really weird sensations. Like an adrenaline or serotonin dump or something - just whoosh! Like a hot flash but without a temp change, so hard to describe. They didn't make me feel faint but I was glad I was still laying down at that point. For a minute I thought I might puke, not because I was nauseous but because that whoosh felt like the kind you get right before you realize you have to bolt for the porcelain god. Each time after I swear I felt an increase in the pressure down there for a minute.
Its either proof of my weather theory or its my mind creating a placebo effect because of the weather. And I'll probably never know which it is. Unless I go into actual labor during a storm. My mind runs amok with speculation. :-/
Anyway, back to facts. Ow, my Virginia. Seriously.
Stay away from me if you don't want to bear the brunt of my emotional wrath. There is no filter. There is no holding back. Frustration level=Mount Everest. Contractions fizzled out again. Get.this.baby.out. Please!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: June 7: Daily Symptoms
Denial and gas.
I'm kind of mad that I feel pretty great lately. I'm just really puffy. Everywhere! My toes have rolls! That's not cool.
I can't go in for another 14 days! Shoot I thought it was 15. Good surprise just now looking at the calendar! But..... Id love for it (labor) to get started on it's own considering my baby is so low I feel like dying from pelvic pressure.
I think the pressure gets my hope falsely elevated that things will start on their own.....

Heartburn has been better !
Have a nice day ladies!!!

Not really. =D>

And to others who have just a couple of days-- Target runs, but no castor oil!!

For symptoms, I'll share that I forgot I had this app and when I opened it today it notified me that my period is 241 days late. Well shit.. Lol
