Two weeks from today

[sonrisa]

I'm going to have a newborn. One week if she goes on her sister's schedule. Ay yi yi. What am I getting myself into? 

What are you thinking about today?

[Deleted]

In 9 days I will have the anatomy scan and see how baby is growing and what the sex is! I'm nervous and excited because I'm hoping baby is healthy and also finding out the sex seems like it will make things more real. I won't be having just a baby, it will be a son or daughter... something about that just seems so much more real!

[AHappierHour]

I feel like all I do is complain. I hate how I feel. I think when I go to the Dr today I'm going to bring it up. I think I might be depressed.

17 days until my DD....hoping sooner! Just got a pedicure with blue nails in honor of my little boy

Exciting!

I had false labor 2 nights ago and now I'm super anxious about not knowing when it will happen. Its weird though...I'm not scared about L&D but the "not knowing when it will happen" is causing anxiety. Birth kit & tub are here so we are ready to go!

Are u birthing at home?

[hillarywhitney]

That's exciting! I have no advice about newborns or already having a kid and having a newborn. But I'm sure you'll do great!

6 days until my first appointment! I'm excited and nervous.

So exciting!! I feel like I am really slacking, but I just can't get motivated to get anything ready for the baby. We bought most of the big stuff, but really need to start setting up the nursery/paint, etc before I get too big and it makes everything hard to do. I wish that nesting thing would kick in!

2 weeks is so close.

I can't wait for my appointment on Thursday and hearing the heart beat again.

[sporklemotion]

Exciting! My birthday is in two weeks.
I'm just thinking about how the days are flying by. I have no idea what I did all day today. Doing well, though!

[BaliHai]

Thinking about how quickly time has passed this year, but mostly about finally being able to meet/hold our baby in three days at the most, probably two!

[JayhawkGirl]

Today I've been thinking a lot of holy crap she's almost here. Suddenly it feels like all this time has flown by.

I'm trying to be a bum, really. DS and I are vegging on the couch watching sprout and we skipped nap today to play outside on our last decent day before the cold sets in.

[redpenmama]

I am stressing out -- I suddenly feel like I have so much to do in the four weeks between now and my due date. I finished my Christmas shopping today, so at least that's done. Now to the other 500 things on my list...

I want this baby here NOW! 2 days until my due date, and I really, really want to go into labor. COME ON, BABY!

I went into labor two days before my due date, hopefully Baby BB decides to do the same!

Omg I have the same problem. I described it as not having any control over when it happens. It's driving me nuts.  I keep having dreams about going into labor. And I'm not really worried about actual labor either, just like "when are you coming!?!?"

This is the silver lining for having a preemie!  

I'm ready to see your babies too, damnit!

MH says as soon as the sun goes down I start complaining! 
I think at this point it's just so uncomfortable that's it's hard not to complain. 
Hang in there, only a little bit longer!

I'm just mostly thinking about how I have to work until birth and I want to cry.

I'm not liking this because you're working until the end and that makes you sad, but because I am doing the same! I AM AT WORK TODAY, ONE DAY BEFORE MY DUE DATE. I HATE IT.

I have an appt this afternoon. I do want labor to happen naturally and all, but I almost wish that my bp would be just a little too high and they'll induce. I feel like that makes me a foolish person, but I don't care anymore.

I am over this waiting and uncertainty. 

Ugh! I hate this for you guys! 

I feel insanely lucky that my boss has been so super during this entire thing. I think I'm the most spoiled employee in the history of the world. 

Fingers crossed for you today, @bunnybean !! I hope you have some progress that requires you to be admitted. Will they admit you if you're Xcm dilated? I know for my sister they admitted her at 5cm for all 3 of her kids.

@bunnybean

Nothing feels different at all. I'm guessing you haven't had any internal checks yet?

[sporklemotion]

@bunnybean-- I hope your baby gets here soon!  I know what you mean about wanting a reason to stop working-- I felt the same way, a bit.  Relieved that my BP was good, but a little disappointed that I couldn't justify taking off early.  

namasteak-- I guess that's one advantage to having your water break all over your last two clean pairs of pants.  There was no question about what it was!

Yay! Good luck sonrisa
