EDD is Sunday... Miserable.

Went in for my weekly today and all the nurses were shocked I was still pregnant. I guess they were all convinced I'd be early. I have to admit I was too, I'm 5 foot and petite and never thought I would carry so long (especially since DH is 6'6 and like 200 some lbs, I knew this baby would be huge). I feel like there's a milk jug in my belly! He must be at least 9lbs already, Lord help me. Maybe it would be easier if I had gained weight more over all? I only gained in my belly so the weight is pretty noticeable for me. Anybody else still pregnant and totally miserable? I actually sulked all day after the doctor did a cervical check and said I wasn't even dilated. Cervical checks in my OB are regular and I don't mind them, I also know that they aren't a reliable way to predict labor. But it would be so reassuring to see some kind of progress. Now I'm cramping non-stop and having some bad BH contractions. I just want this day to end. And to not be pregnant lol but I suppose I can wait another week or two. If I have to. How are you ladies?

Re: EDD is Sunday... Miserable.

  • My due date is Sunday too. Same boat. I haven't got a cervix check because I'm pretty positive that I'm not dilated or anything either. I'm not even cramping or having BH contractions. But this is my #3 and I was induced with my first 2 and never had any of those symptoms either. This baby actually seems to be my smallest so far which makes me nervous that I'll be pregnant for 2 more weeks for sure. I'm just so tired and starting to get mild headaches. I'm so over pregnancy but still scared of labor ha

  • @kheitic4 aw you've got this momma, already had two! Surprisingly enough labor doesn't scare me at all, I'm so ready for it now it doesn't even make me nervous. You know you're miserable when labor sounds inviting lol! Hopefully neither one of us has much left to go... This heartburn is gonna be the death of me!
  • Sounds like I'm reading my own story too. I'm due Sunday too and went for my appt today too and still am not dialating at all. Having contractions & 70% effaced but no real activity. Everyone thought I was going early too and I'm all belly only gained about 10-15 pounds this pregnancy. Im so ready to deliver this baby. I was hoping today they'd say lets go straight to the hospital. If I don't have her by Sunday we are planned to induce on Monday.
  • Thanks! I'm so tired I'm worried I won't have energy for labor lol I had so much energy last week so maybe this is just resting up for Labor. We'll see I really hope we don't go over 40 weeks! Good luck
  • Wow we must be twins! My doctors won't induce until 41-42 weeks, which I personally wouldn't do until then anyway, but good luck! I'll be sending some positive vibes that way, you're so lucky! I can't wait to hold my little boy but at the same time I really enjoy these foot massages and long baths... But the belly pain is so miserable. 15 extra pounds in one area is a lot harder on you than most people think! My husband and I were so sure we'd be sent to the hospital today too, I was in such a horrible mood after the "see you next week!" @TIARA0322
