Had my 40 week appointment today - still pregnant with little to no progression so we scheduled my induction for 41+1 (July 8th). This was both the latest doctor would let me go and the earliest she was allowed to induce...I have mixed feelings. I was so unprepared to be pregnant for this long!
So, my water broke around 1:30am and contractions started around 5 minutes apart. When we first arrived she was too high to even tell if I was dilated at all. We are all checked into our room at the hospital and I'm currently 4cm, and contractions are 3-5 minutes apart so they're happy. It looks like she wanted to be a June baby after all!
Every morning I wake up not in labour I get disappointed. I'm not sure why I apparently think that labour is something the exclusively starts overnight.
@lwyz@Addelie that makes three of us. I get contractions normally starting late afternoon and they will last all through the night and my morning everything has settled down!! I am always so disappointed that there is no progression.. (

Me too me too! I wake up and I'm just like "well... I guess I'm pregnant another day!" As if he can't come during the day haha it definitely feels that way.
I just want to go into labor before this weekend. My MIL is coming and I don't want to go into labor while she's here.

My husband told me this morning "this baby is not Santa clause. He doesn't have to come at night" LOL.
40 weeks and 2 days.. starting to wonder if ill even notice labour signs. i feel like im one of the only ones ok with a july baby. >.<</p>
I have nothing against having a July baby other than having to wait longer!! Haha. My target run did nothing, unfortunately, and I think baby is holding out. And now my thunderstorm is looking like it's not going to happen! Darn it!
I totally feel like this is the only thread left that i can participate in. Am so pleased that there's a group of us still here or else i think i'd just give up! When it comes to newborn support Nd questions will you ladies post in the July group? Not sure i could handle "use the search function" responses from mums who are so far ahead - so much has been discussed already...
@Addelie this is exactly how I feel. I follow this and the birth announcements....they keep me motivated, it is so wonderful to see the little ones. 40+2 for me, guess we are all having July babies at this stage.
@aabernathy23 yes, I had a sonogram done to make sure everything was ok. He's happy as a clam and content. He was just in there chewing on his fingers...little stinker has no intention of coming out on his own. We'll induce tomorrow night.
I am being induced on Thursday July 2nd at 7 pm. I had a stress test done yesterday and the doctor said baby is loving it in there. Yes that is comforting that baby loves my uterus but baby is being evicted in less then 48 hours!

I don't think it'll be an issue for me. Any specific questions I'll search, but to me this board is mostly moral support/commiseration. If I need a specific answer I typically head to google first.
And @Addelie, another unsuccessful night for me, too. And I even felt kind of like things were starting to progress! Yet, nothing. Fingers crossed for today. Would love a Canada day baby!!
Due date was June 27th. I'm getting a serial induction starting tomorrow. My dr will be out of town after the fourth so we decided to go ahead a do the induction. Any advice? Let me know and wish me luck. Praying for all to have healthy safe deliveries!
I also just had a doctors appointment and they did a membrane sweep... Hopefully this will start things up but I was only open a fingertip they also scheduled me for an induction on July 8 which seems so very long away
I had my 41 week appointment today. Ultrasound showed only two pockets of fluid and was at 2.5. Then had nst and baby was good, but bc of low fluid and a 5 on bishop sale she sent me hospital to be induced. I'm here now and started cytotec a few hours ago. I'm having cramping and contractions now for the first time. Let's hope I'm dilated some when they check me! They said I'll most likely deliver tomorrow just a waitin game now
Made an induction appointment for Friday at 630pm! Finally the end is in sight! I would love to go into labor before then but I can wait a couple days )
@PhoenixFrances hang in there! my first sweep (four days ago) i was only a fingertip and today was 1cm and she could get right in and do it properly. An induction booked on the 8th is great - you have time how many weeks/days will you be on the 8th?

I am 40 weeks 5 days, saw the dr a few days ago and cervix was still closed. Not doing anything else till Monday! Tried all the at home labor kick starts! So discouraging! Hope you ladies have some luck!!!
I tried EPO last night and felt a ton more pressure today. (40+1) I don't know if it's a coincidence or it did something but I'm really hoping he comes soon. I'm scheduled for a induction on the 9th. I'll be so upset if it comes down to that. And second on the full moon! I'm hoping it does something.

My original due date was the 30th. My doc changed it to July 5th back in Dec (after I joined this group). I still have a few days. This pregnancy is just so different (meaning more painful) than my first and it is so hot here that I am just so very ready to have this baby girl!!
Re: Still Pregnant?
I just want to go into labor before this weekend. My MIL is coming and I don't want to go into labor while she's here.
starting to wonder if ill even notice labour signs.
i feel like im one of the only ones ok with a july baby. >.<

@BridgetRoche I have mixed feelings about the birth announcements page these days - sometimes it motivates and sometimes it deflates me!
And @Addelie, another unsuccessful night for me, too. And I even felt kind of like things were starting to progress! Yet, nothing. Fingers crossed for today. Would love a Canada day baby!!
I've pushed my induction back one day to 41+6 which is Friday 3rd. I just wasn't ready for it to be tomorrow.
It's 95 degrees - feeling pretty hot
Hope everyone is hanging in there!
@lwyz fingers crossed for your canada day baby!!
@Kovak when are you due?
@PhoenixFrances i'm scheduled for an induction on friday when i'll be 41+6. Hope you go before the 8th - you have loads of time!
