I didn't see this thread so I'll get it started. How did everyone do with the fireworks last night? I'm kind of glad I didn't have my baby yet a last night would've been hard to get thru with a newborn. What's going on today, ladies?
Scheduled c section tomorrow. Kinda freak'n me out that today is our last day as a family of three. Had strong contractions for hours last night but I knew it wasn't the real thing. By this time tomorrow I'll have a daughter. Crazy.
I'm continuing my lifestyle as a hermit and dodging people and their overbearing questions about baby.
Last night, police cars, fire trucks and ambulances were parked in front of our house to respond to something from the house across the street. It was like at 1am. Nothing like that happens here in Northern Colorado... Oh yeah, my husband had his car window shot at when he was driving on the highway a couple of month's ago. Crazy stuff!!!!
Congrats @corndogrobot! Mine is on Tuesday! I'm STM, but still scared. @smccall3838 I said the exact same thing last night! My random is that I managed to sleep all night without a problem even though I slept all day yesterday. I can not wait to have my energy back!! I feel like a slug!
I actually enjoyed the fireworks last night. I watched my son and my bf as they popped some.
Good luck on your cs tomorrow @corndogrobot! Pray everything goes smoothly.
I'll be getting induced on Tuesday. I was really hoping she'd make an entrance on her own this weekend but she's seriously just in here relaxing. Lol I'm up trying to get cleaning done, just finished fussing at my bf because we need to finish cleaning the baby's room today. Something he's been promising to do for a few weeks. Smh.
Baby is pressing on my bladder and I can't control my pee! I'm literally leaking! No one ever tells you this side of pregnancy. Just counting down the days now.
Dh and I went to a nice dinner late last night and got some amazing deserts to take home. We went for a drive out to a wildlife preserve and saw all the cut baby Buffalo and prairie dogs running around. I love that kind of stuff. Then we went home and watched a movie in bed and ate our deserts. We skipped the fire works this year which was OK with me. It started storming anyway so we got a good lightning show that's still going this afternoon actually. Were just hanging out watching TV today cause itsnpoiring out. Maybe labor will start today. . . hopefully.
I swear, my baby is playing games with me. Thursday night/Friday morning I was in L&D, and they told me I was in early labor. They released me to labor at home some more, but said they fully expected to see me back within 18 hours. Everything I find in my research says that early labor can last "up to" 20 hours. So why am I still showing all the signs of EARLY labor?
@corndogrobot I also have a scheduled c section for tomorrow!
I am so tired today from being at the lake all day yesterday.. I feel like I could just sleep the entire day away but at the same time I feel like there's so much that needs to be done before we meet our baby girl tomorrow!
I am a STM and I didn't have a c section with my first so I'm a little nervous as to how tomorrow is going to pan out. I'm also really hoping that breastfeeding works out! But I am determined.
Husband asked if I wanted to get on our roof to watch fireworks...I didn't think it was a great idea. Walking hurts, I don't think climbing a ladder would feel any better. It was super overcast last night anyway so I went to sleep instead.

@ashleytiff glad you didn't climb that ladder up to your roof too :-SS
Havent posted anything on here in a long time but i need to vent. 39+3weeks, ftm. As of tuesday i am 80% effaced, 1cm, and -1 station. Been having bh for 3 weeks now. Im soooo ready for my little girl to be here already. Anyways i live with my mil and for like the last three days everything she says or does is driving me absolutely insane. She keeps asking me how im feeling and it seems that every little noise she makes is making me go crazy. I love my mil but ahhhh this is killing me. I cant be the same room as her for longer than 5 mins anymore. My dh knows she is annoying me but yet still abandons me today to go hang with his buddy. Goodness.... I think the only solution will be is getting this baby out of me and i have tried every little thing and she is not wanting to come yet.
4th of July was okay. Spent a lot of time in the car showing my boyfriend's friend around our area and then grilled out and drove up to the hills to watch the Fireworks.
I'm feeling kinda sad and sorry for myself. My boyfriend just flew in Friday after being gone two months and his friend comes to visit for the weekend a couple hours after he flies in. Just feeling not very special.
Up early this morning... My hunger woke me up. Decided to fix up a banana with peanut butter...yum... that'll hold me over until DH wakes up (he's the chef of the fams).
Was able to cross one thing off of my list so far today- cleared out my Dropbox folder so I can delete pics off of my phone to ensure enough space for when baby boy makes his arrival! Oh, and I uploaded the 3d/4d ultrasound pics to my computer, too!
Now I'm back in bed being a bum, lol. Hopefully, I'll get more energy to finally pack our hospital bags, make my padsicles, and return some baby stuff later on today!
I have to rant, because if I don't get it out of my system, I will end up going off on my husband and he doesn't deserve that.
I am not necessarily tired of being pregnant, but.... my hormones are all over the place today and it's only noon! I can't seem to stop sweating, even though it's only 85 degrees outside. Everytime I move from out in front of the fan, I start dripping sweat. Putting on makeup today was ridiculous because it kept melting off or streaking. And, I feel like I have to wear makeup because I have some melasma due to - of course - hormones, and I look like I have a mustache without foundation and concealer. I feel so gross all I want to do is scream and/or cry. And, I hubby is only trying to help when he tells me I'm pretty or asks me what's wrong. But, really, I just want to be left alone.
Ok, I think that's it.... hopefully, hormones will balance out thru the rest of the day. Or, maybe I should just stay away from everyone and lock myself in my room until this passes...
Prayers for you ladies delivering tomorrow! I'm proud to say my 5 day old princess slept most of the night! =D> I woke her to change a dirty pamper and for a feeding. We bonded for about an hour and she went back to sleep! And today is my due date... Kinda surreal that I'm already holding my sweet Alaila in my arms! ">
38 weeks today and I am feeling it!! My pelvic bone is killing me and lightning crotch is so real. My feet decided to swell up last night out of nowhere. I think I'll just keep my butt planted on the couch with my feet elevated all day @-)
I feel the same way. I had contractions for 5 hours on Friday. Yesterday I felt back pain and extreme pressure. Then today had more contractions that were very intense. I tell myself it is most likely not the real deal so I don't get my hopes up, but I still get excited and immediately disappointed when they stop. My due date is tomorrow. I just took a 3 hour nap. Hopefully this is a sign he's coming soon. DH and told the baby he has 24 hours or he's gonna be in big trouble.

This is me exactly!! I didn't have a CS the first time either and having it scheduled with a count down Is freaking me out. My best friend just got here and while I took a 2 hour nap. I woke up and she had cleaned my whole house. God bless people with OCD
Due dates today and it's bittersweet. I've been so sad all day. One because it's so real now that hubby and I just spent our last holiday as just us together yesterday. And then two because I dont have the baby yet. Ugh hormones are making me a mess
My best friend leaves town tomorrow so we had a girls day and grabbed lunch and then went shopping! Her bf is proposing soon so we went ring shopping and it made me so excited for her but also seemed crazy to me that I was in her place just 3 years ago and now I'm having a baby haha. I got a little teary eyed. I got some froyo (craving dream come true) and now I'm hanging with the hubby before we go to my dads for a bbq.
Pretty annoyed of the constant contractions and walking like I have a stick up my butt. My goal was to make it past the 4th so now I'm really ready for this baby to come! Till then, I just keep walking my heart out; my dog doesn't mind
I'm sooo tired today. I love my family & having them here for the weekend was awesome but 4 super whiney kids is stressful & very loud so SO & I are enjoying the quiet now. Best of luck to you c section mommas tomorrow. I look forward to your birth announcement.
Yeah fireworks used to be fun before a scardy dogs and toddler who got scared awake.
My rant, I would love it if family, friends, neighbors, and aquantances could just wait for me to tell them when I deliver baby. I am tired of the daily reminder I am overdue from everyone asking everyday if LO is here yet.
Have my ECV tomorrow at noon. I'm a little nervous but not overwhelmingly so. I'm hoping he turns head down and then my water breaks in the hospital.... A girl can hope right?
I was hungry when I went to bed early Sunday morning and so I had a dream, me and my friend were hiking up a mountain and along the way , I kept finding these vending machines! I had to stop at every single one we came to. And my friend was so mad that I couldn't pass one up. Hahaha The things you dream when you are hungry!!!
