Baby Watch

[brandienee]

I feel like there's a lot of us that are almost there, or have gone into labor already. I thought it would be nice to do a quick check up, because I am weird and worry about internet friends. 

Who here is close to delivery this week? 

How are you feeling? 

Need to vent or need good thoughts heading your way?

Bah! I completely forgot she is due this week!! I've been living under a rock. (Or more appropriately, academic journals)

I kind of hope they have a girl. Can you imagine how gorgeous she will grow up to be?

My due date is Wednesday. I see the doc tomorrow and if I'm not in labor prior to that or dilating or showing any signs (last week my cervix was lower but that was it) we talk induction.

I'm DONE. So very, very done.

I'm only 37 weeks, but people keep telling me I could have the baby "ANY DAY NOW!!!". It is freaking me out. I'm kind of hoping she arrives around 39 weeks. That would be perfect. I think we're mostly ready, H seems to be freaking out a little about last minute things. I don't really care anymore about the nursery being "done". We have the essentials. I'm mostly just over being exhuasting, not sleeping, peeing every 45 mins, having Flinstone feet that don't fit in any shoes and hurt, getting out of breath, not being able to reach my feet or get up without help! It is so sad, and I still have up to 4 more weeks to go!!!!

I've been having sporadic contractions for a few weeks and I'm 2cm and 80% as of my last appointment. I'm fairly certain I lost whatever was left of my mucus plug this weekend and I am GBS+ so I know now that I'm looking at a 48+ hour stay at the hospital. I am mostly done with the nursery, though I need to continue to purge the rest of the house of crap we don't need, and I need to order replacement pump parts and a baby bath tub, though Amazon Prime can come to the rescue there. I'm going to try and get the rest of my stuff packed and ready to go to will this to happen.

My midwife said that she would induce at 39 weeks if I'm still hanging around. H wants me to hold off until May 10th (LOLOL) to hit a deadline at work and I have a few things left to handle at work, but I don't even care.

Closer than I thought I was, had my baby today! Well, technically yesterday, since it's after midnight. I'll do a new post
