i have been having contractions for 2 weeks, and i get excited every time.  i have days where i am exhausted and days where i have a little more energy, but im so emotionally charged, there isn't much room for physical energy.

im beginning to have a very bad attitude.

hugs, octolars.   my #2 was due in late march, and i remember being really discouraged as my DDC filled up with birth announcements & being one of the last few still remaining.  take heart in knowing that whatever is happening with your baby and your body right now is important- your body is intricately preparing you and your baby for birth at the right time.  those contractions are working for you- make sure you are resting and eating well!

Oh Octolars, I hear you. I'm also really uncomfy and not dealing well. I'm basically a graceless grouch. I wish you peace and rest while you wait. Know that you're not alone!!!

[octolars]

thanks for the love everyone!  still no Charlee, but i'm dealing with it pretty well.  I hope everyone else is doing well.

Hugs to all of you still waiting!   It is really hard to wait.  Like lovetomercy, I have been at the tail-end of two DDC's now and birthed my babies in the following month.  It is not fun!  If I ever get pregnant again, I want a due date on the first of a month. :) 

[ThreeLittleBirds]

still here...and bitter, very very bitter

[octolars]

threelittlebirfds, im here with you!  8 days late with no sign of approaching labor.

sending you peaceful vibes.  

[tolovemercy]

threelittlebirds and octolars...how are you ladies? 

[ChristSavesAll]

I am still here too, course today is my due date and aside from some nesting for a couple days, cramps last night, not much else goin on to indicate labor is on it's way... but I'm hoping with the full moon tomorrow that baby will decide to come then.

[lisarenee25]

Still here, but it's no surprise.  I will probably be here for another 2 or 3 weeks.

Ho hum.

I just want to know why I can't incubate like a normal woman?  Why does the end of my pregnancies always have to be so stressful?
 

[tolovemercy]

sorry, lisarenee!  is your baby breech?

[lisarenee25]

No, not anymore.  We think it turned about 2 weeks ago - so that's at least a good thing.  I am hoping it didn't turn back though.  I have been feeling low kicks for the last week, but been trying to ignore it.  Everyone tells me that it's impossible for baby to turn again - cause of the size. 
 

[octolars]

Well she was 11 days late but she finally arrived on august 1. Im in the hospital recovering from a suprise cesearean. Birth story to come. I hope you other ladies get to hold your little ones soon, and wish you wonderful, perfect births!
