July 2015 Moms

Saturday randoms!

I'm 40+3 today and I'm hoping this is the weekend LO comes! My doctor is on-call at the hospital this weekend and I slept well for the first time in a week so come on baby!

What's new in your world, mommies?

Re: Saturday randoms!

  • Not much. 40+5 today, still no baby...or signs that s/he is coming anytime soon.

    DD is gone for the rest of the day, since she slept over at her aunt's house. DS slept until about 7. No real plans for today, but I might do some meal planning for my 21-Day Fix challenge group that I'm starting on August 1.

    I'm trying to stay busy so I don't think about the fact that we only have one more paycheck coming in for quite a while.

    Still pregnant! I'm still kind of hoping she comes on her own but if not, we are going in for induction tomorrow night so at least I know she'll definitely be here in a couple days!

    In the meantime, hubby and I will just be spending time together. Btw folks, if you go to https://www.chipotlefriendorfaux.com and take a short quiz, you can get a BOGO coupon. I know what we're having for lunch today!

    Waking up again...almost 9:00...went back to sleep at 7:00. Last night was my first I guess false labor, if you will. DH & I really thought it was going to progress into something, but I ended up able to fall asleep. Every time I was up to pee & then went back to sleep I had a different, stressful, weird, bad dream (??) just woke up from another one. Baby feels lower than ever after another long walk yesterday. Anyways I have a pedicure at 11:30, might request extra ankle & foot massage to see if we can get something going! Need to hit the grocery store up as usual over the weekend. I just want my LO to come this weekend before my 40 week appt on Monday...or on his Tuesday EDD.
  • 40+1 today and still no signs....bought a birthing ball earlier today and have been bouncing around the living room lol. Boyfriend and I are going out to an Italian restaurant this evening so shall me making the most of what technically should be our last date night out for a while. I can't imagine still being pregnant this time next week although I have a sneaky suspicion I may be! Hope all you ladies are well xx
  • Aw man @tkduke that is funny! His heart is totally in the right place lol!
    I too am still pregnant. I'm 39 +2 today. If I'm still pregnant tomorrow, this will be my longest pregnancy ever (of 4). Last night my husband and I were praying that he'd be born today--figured it doesn't hurt to ask--I started up with contractions and they went all night long. But alas, no baby as of yet. And really, no more contractions either. I know I'm being super impatient, esp because I'm not even at my due date yet, and some of yall are a week or more overdue. But seriously. I think we're all done with the whole pregnancy thing. Let's just all have our babies and move on with life \:D/
  • Still pregnant. 40 + 1. I have been patient all along but am longing to see my sons face n to hold n cuddle him. Bouncing on my ball, walking, pineapple, uncomfortable sex n nipple stimulation havent helped at all. No dilation or baby drop. Still carrying high. Praying for a quick miracle. Doc wont induce me till sun the 2 nd!!!

    40+6 over here! Can't believe tomorrow is 41 weeks!!!
  • Finally have a relaxing day of doing nothing!!!!! It's fantastic!

    Ok...one more pedicure before this baby comes!! Also a good foot & ankle massage...maybe it'll get something going!! Wish me luck friends & family & send me all the "labory" vibes you can!!
  • My little Letty bear is now four days old. I cannot believe how in love and attached I feel to her. I no longer care about anything other than her and her daddy. It's such an amazing feeling to be a mom. I could watch her all day, stay up all night with her crying, and miss girls night out and not care. As long as I'm with her I'm happy. ☺️ I hope all of you FTM are having as much fun as I am. Even with no sleep. (:
  • Having movie night tonight! Excited to watch one of my favorites--Clash of the Titians!! (1981 version)
    Nerd.
  • My LO is 13 days old! It's crazy how fast the days are going by and how much she's changed already. Breastfeeding has been challenging for us, but she's the sweetest baby and loves to snuggle! That's my favorite part of the day.

    That's a good one @corndogrobot ...I just bought 300 on blue ray!!
  • I'm taking full advantage of the Harry Potter marathon on ABC Family today! Camping on the couch with my 12 day old baby girl :) 
    DH even went out to grab In-N-Out for me!

    I still feel overwhelmed at some points (I've been suffering from some Baby Blues) but all in all, it's been a good day! Hope the same for everyone else!
  • I'm still waiting on this little guy to show himself! After having crampsThursday night, shopping Friday and some contractions here and there, and then last night, I was having them stronger than I've had this whole pregnancy, I Thought he would be making his appearance today. But now, they are slowing down some so may tomorrow. It just really stinks!!! 40 week appt on Monday so we shall see in a few days. 
  • Had lunch with my dad and he bought DDa toddler bed for her birthday so now the crib can be used for the baby when we're ready. One more day till DH leaves town for a week. Baby either needs to make a move tonight or settle in until after next Friday. I'm betting on her waiting it out.

    @mahlissah i've never had in and out burger! I don't think we have it here in Colorado, but I've heard it's amazing! Enjoy your treat :D movie day

    I keep seeing all these post that say post partum in the title, makes me more bummed, I wanna be post partum, especially since I had contractions all day yesterday and they just stopped!! When is it finally going to happen :(
  • I'm thankful that there's still some of us waiting on our LO's it's nice not being alone. It's so hot here today i don't want to go outside at all! Visited my dad at the hospital, he's doing better but not great. Like the rest of you, hoping this baby makes an appearance but no labor signs :-q
  • I had my 39 week appointment on Friday and my chiropractor appointments worked! Baby has officially dropped! Labor is still probably far away, but I am trying to walk as much as possible to see if I can convince LO to make her move.
  • I'm getting the distinct impression my family's getting upset with me that the baby hasn't been born yet. If it were up to me, he'd be here, trust me..... but all this waiting, they've got a serious tone with me like i'm doing them a disservice by not delivering, like, a week ago.

  • I am extremely tired today. I tried to bend over to get the laundry out of the drier and I couldn't bend over with out some severe pain very low in my pelvis. The girls dropped and There just isn't enough room down there for both of them. I just can't wait until my c section date 7/30. I want to meet my girls and not be pregnant anymore. I'm pretty sure this will be my last pregnancy and as much as I love having babies this is probably it for us. These twins will make 3 kids for us. That's more rooms then we have in our house right now. We'll make room. It'll just be difficult. So I want it to be next week at this time. I'll be in the hospital with my girls and finally be recovering!!

    Oh man last night had some intense moments! We really thought it was going to progress into something, but I ended up able to fall asleep. Body was definitely practicing or something... definitely different than the Braxton hicks contractions...like strong menstrual cramps...but then just kind of tapered off with emptying my bladder several times, drinking water, & changing positions a few times. If you can fall asleep eventually...you are not in true labor :-/
  • @ecloho - I've had that happen a few times now! I get so excited and then wake up pregnant :(

    It's our first wedding anniversary today!! Hubby made me breakfast in bed and is bringing home my favourite indian take out for dinner!!

    It's less than 48 hours until bub is here as well!! I am sooooo excited :D
