Anyone still pregnant?

I'm due April 30th.. I had a scheduled c-section this past Monday (two days ago) due to a breech baby. I came in at 5:30 am with everything packed and ready. They did an ultrasound, and he was head down! (38&2) So my OB gave me the option to go ahead and have a baby while I was there, or wait til NEXT Wednesday for an induction(high BP) to give my body a chance of natural labor. I know that he needs all the time inside, so I chose to wait. Now I'm wishing I hadn't, because it seems like everyone has had a baby, and I'm still waiting!

  • Still pregnant over here so you are not alone. I'm due this Friday April 22nd, but not terribly hopefully that this little girl will want to come out by then. We are getting very impatient waiting for her arrival.

    I am due April 26th and no baby yet. I've had two sweeps but nothing is happening. Don't worry, our babies will be here very soon :) 
  • I feel so huge and uncomfortable and I'm getting impatient. I've tried everything to induce besides castor oil, but that's not going to happen! This last week is going to creep by so slowly!
  • Still pregnant here, too, due April 26th. At my hospital they won't even consider inducing until May 3rd (41 weeks) unless there is a problem. 
  • I'm also still pregnant. Due the 26th
  • Still pregnant. Due yesterday. I went a few days early with my first two boys so this was unexpected. 
  • Still pregnant. 41 weeks today! Was due the 13th.

    How much longer are you allowed to go before being induced?
  • still pregnant. 40+3. Membrane sweep yesterday and induction scheduled for the 25th. Really not pleased I am past due at this point but there's nothing I can do about it now....

  • 40+1 still pregnant. Baby hasn't dropped, not dilated one bit but cervix is soft. Will talk about induction at my next appointment. I'll be 40+6. Hopefully I'll have a squishy baby by this time next week. We can do it ladies!!! 
  • Yup. Still pregnant. Due April 30.

    Last night we had a L&D visit as I was contracting every 2-3 minutes for about 2 hours. Got to the hospital and they slowed to every 5-6 minutes. I'm only 2 cm dilated and 50% effaced so they sent me home.

    Today? Nothing. Nada. 

    Sigh.

    We haven't talked about it yet. I am planning on delivering in a birth center which won't admit me beyond 41+6 though so if I do get induced it'd be before then. I'm dilating and effacing and baby is low though so thinking I won't need an induction. Friday if I'm still pregnant she'll give me an exam to stir things up, or a membrane sweep.

  • Due April 27, currently 2cm dilated. Doc suggested membrane sweep today, so I went with it. Part of me is hoping for some action over weekend, but the other part of me just wants one more weekend to get things done. The struggle is REAL.
  • *raises hand* Me! Im still pregnant!

    Baby was due April 15th, but I think she's really due this Friday, the 22nd, based on my calculations. 

    I have a midwife appointment today, and I know she's going to ask if I want a sweep. I really don't want one because it hurts, and I'd rather let things be. BUT! I don't want to be pregnant anymore either, sooooo....

  • Yup! Due April 29th. Only 1 cm dilated, and my cervix is still high and thick. Im starting to get worried my pelvis is too narrow for baby, as he's never very low and if he does drop a bit, he always comes back up. C'mon, baby! 
  • ***Raises hand*** Not due until the 26th. I will discuss induction with my NP at the next visit if I'm still preggo by then.

    Still pregnant and due the 29th. I am NOT rushing this little babe. He/she will come when it is ready! I want to enjoy these last several days as a duo before we become a trip! 
  • Due the 29th, but I was early with my others, so I've got my fingers crossed that this one will be too. All of the real life people I know that we're due this month (5 of them!) delivered by last week. My OB predicted 8-8.5lbs, my doula predicted 8lbs, 4oz. After this past week's growth, I'm leaning toward 8.5lbs myself.

  • Still pregnant here at 38+4. Due on 4/30 but I still believe she'll come this week. Doc said she wants baby out by the 30th but if she doesn't we will induce at 41 weeks. 
  • Are y'all jealous of all the birth announcements and stories too?
  • Omg I'll be 41 weeks tomorrow. Getting induced at 11. So hopefully baby by Friday at the latest. I wanted to post of my jealousy last week!   This is my 2nd (first was also a week late!)Why is it waiting and driving me crazy already?!
  • @LjljljlTotally jealous and anxious to meet my own :smile: 
  • I am still pregnant I was due April 10th! I am 41 weeks and 4 days! I am so happy they are inducing me tomorrow.
  • Due April 30th and still pregnant here. Having some signs labor is coming soon but nothing in the area of contractions, or water breaking. Feeling very uncomfortable and ready for her to come out.
  • Still pregnant here too. Due tomorrow 4/22 and feeling he's not coming until later. My first was a day early so I was really hopeful. So past ready and my emotions are starting to take over. Poor DH. 
  • I am still pregnant. I'm not even really uncomfortable. I'm due either the 28th or the 5th. My doctor never decided which one was correct. My husband is attending a wedding as the best man I'm the 7th though so I'm not scheduled for an induction until the 9th...hopefully I'll meet him before that though.
  • Im due on Monday and am getting SO impatient and emotionally drained! Tried every which way to naturally get things moving after my doctor "swore" I would go into labor at 90% effaced and 1 cm two weeks ago and alas..."no progress". Ugh! Next appointment is scheduled for Tuesday where we'll plan inducement for sometime during 41 weeks. I love seeing all of the baby announcements but they have me super jealous! All in good time, ladies :). They can't stay in there forever! 
  • Due today 4/21....still pregnant. 8-10 minute contractions for 3 days now...3 cm dialated as of Tuesday. Sigh..
  • Due today and don't think she will be showing up today. Hoping she arrives before Monday. Really sick of going to work and everyone saying your still here. 
  • Due SIX days ago! The wait is brutal! I swear these past few days have lasted longer than the previous 9 months combined, let's go baby!!
  • Due 4/25, still waiting. Doc thought it might happen before then, but if not he'll do a membrane sweep on request at my due date appointment. I'm pretty uncomfortable and not getting any sleep and out of leave, so I hope she makes her debut soon!
  • I'm still pregnant due the 29th 
  • Still pregnant and was due on 4/20. I'm hopeful that this LO will make an arrival this weekend. If it doesn't come on its own by Wednesday afternoon I'll be 41 weeks and I go in for an induction. 
  • So, as of my appointment earlier today, I may possibly be induced Monday night rather than Wednesday. I have to go back Monday at 11AM, and they'll tell me when my induction is based on BP/Protein. I know it's possible to go into labor any minute, but I wish they'd give me more of an advanced notice rather than the day of!! I'm going crazy!
  • I am still waiting as well. Everyone has already had their babies, and today is my official due date 4/23/16. I have no symptoms at all. No cramping, no braxton hicks contractions, no soreness. I have not even dialated.
  • Still waiting also... due 4/26... yesterday when I woke up I had a small trickle of what I thought could possibly be my amniotic fluid but haven't had anymore. Been having tons of braxton hicks and my hips feel like they are shattering into pieces! 
  • Not due til 4/29 but I've been 5 cm and 90% effaced for over two weeks now...come on baby! 
  • I am officially passed my due date now and do not feel like she will be making an appearance soon. Waiting 9 months to meet her has been hard enough!
