Woohoo! It makes it seem so much closer. I'm not due til the end of the month, but at least November will be here eventually! We'll have to start a labor thread where everyone can post their 'could this be it?' moments. I'm stalking the Oct board's, but it will be much more fun for it to be ours!
So exciting! I set my repeat c-section date last week for November 7th...5 weeks from yesterday. Its so confusing because 5 weeks doesn't feel that close but then it seems too close at the same time.
I'm due November 1! But we got our c section date today- October 26!!! Just 3 weeks from Wednesday! Unless baby flips before then he will be here in just 3 weeks!!!!
I'm sure Nov 2nd... I'm less than a month out and u confirmed with the OB that they will not stop my labor at this point once it starts. I really just want to make it thru this weekend for my baby shower so that I feel more prepared. Right now I have a crib and a high chair at home so I just don't feel ready to take a baby home.
November can't come soon enough. After my gestational diabetes diagnosis, I'm done. I don't have time for the extra appointments and crap like that. Plus I was hoping I could be induced early if baby was measuring big to avoid a section and she said since I've had a section in the past regardless of a successful vbac she can't induce me. So this kid needs to cooperate.
I'm due the later part of November and super excited to be a mommy!!! I can't wait to see the birth announcements and read the labor stories. I too creep other boards but nothing like having our own little group experiences ❤️ Can't wait!!!
This post gives me butterflies. I realized when I came in today that I have 4 weeks left of work before maternity leave which is just not enough time! I'm kind of nervous about not being at work anymore and I'm just hoping things go well while I'm out. I really hope baby doesn't come until November 1st at the earliest; I really don't know what I'd do if he came early... Yikes! One more thing to worry about!

Same due date! But I feel so fkn ready. one more month seems like torture now that I'm so uncomfortable every day. (Plus I already had my shower - have fun!)

I think I'll be OK after Saturday.... At least that's what I keep telling myself.
So I'm on bed rest at the hospital and I've been here a week. BP has been shitty. Anyway, doc told me they're gonna take her at 34 weeks. That's two weeks from now. You can imagine my panic lol...but at the same time, relief. I don't want to do an injustice to my kid by continually feeling like shit and not being able to take care of her. Anyway, I'm done, done being here, done sitting around doing nothing. It's no fun at all.

I hope the light at the end of the tunnel has you going - save all the hugs for the little baby!
I am so excited and so ready! I'm not due until Nov 20, but LOVE looking at our birth announcement board and seeing the pictures of the sweet teeny babies! I can't wait to be a mom and snuggle on my baby!
@jenesiso I hope the time goes quickly, I can't imagine how hard it must be to wait when you are just stuck there. Hoping for good things and health for you and baby in the coming weeks!
I think I was ready/excited back in Aug/Sep and now that I realize it is next month it is like oh crap what am I doing. I think after next week's baby classes it will really get real and I'll start full on preparation.
I'm due November 8th!! I am ready and not ready for this little one to make their entrance! We are team green, so it will be amazing to find out what we have been growing this whole time!! I keep telling my daughter it is a unicorn lol! She of course wants a baby sister , but says a brother would be ok ! Good Luck to all the mommies to be!!!
Due date is end of November (28th) so it still feels like a lifetime away... I had my babyshower so I know exactly what's outstanding to buy which I'm looking forward to completing probably very soon. We feel ready mentally/physically, so the last stretch is going to drag. My biggest concern re: time is to do with making freezer meals! I have no idea how long it will take me to whip some up but I really do want to accomplish that before I get too big and uncomfortable standing in the kitchen.
I will try to pass the time with crafts for baby, might crochet a second blanket, still have to finish the paper mobile I'm making. I'm trying to save those fun crafty activities for the end when I just want to be on the couch!

my co workers are way more excited than me lol.. at this point im panicking slightly... i come to work daily with a sticky note of the days remaining... cause that doesnt freak me out worse or anything.
I am so excited and so ready! I'm not due until Nov 20, but LOVE looking at our birth announcement board and seeing the pictures of the sweet teeny babies! I can't wait to be a mom and snuggle on my baby!
I'm due the 6th but have a feeling he will be here the next week or so.... My body is ready for him to be here but mentally I hope he stays in there for little longer!!!
My mom told me tonight she thinks I'll be having DD around the 16 this month. I'm not due til Nov 10, so I'm hoping she's wrong. Our shower is t even until the 22nd, and I have GBS so she needs to stay put at least another week. Here's hoping.
The first time I posted in this topic I thought I only has two weeks and I was going to be induced a 34 weeks...NOPE. I got screwed and was told they're not doing anything till 35 weeks. I've been here over 2 1/2 weeks with 11 days to go. I even partially joked with the doctor to have me transferred to the psych wing...being cooped up in this room is by far the hardest thing I've ever done. So anyway. As long as I make it to ambien hour at 9pm, I consider it a successful day.
Hang in there @jenesiso. So ambien is safe? I used to take it daily but haven't had one the entire time I've been pregnant. Sleeping has been really difficult lately so I wonder if I can take one? I wouldn't want to take one everyday though, because the wothdraw was pretty scary at the beginning and I wouldn't want baby to experience that. But obviously if your in the hospital and taking them it's ok?
@Justpeachier13 I would ask your doctor before you take any kind of medication. It could be safe for her, or needed, but it might not be for someone else.
