:irked: how many of us still have babies in thier bellies??

[irish_mom_to_5]

JUst courius I feel so alone.

[MahBearRI]

You're not alone......Agh....

I wish you some good sleep and a comfortable last moments of holding LO in the belly.

[EmmaJean]

Me too! I'm a few days late so far. The packers come on the 4th, so I really would love to have the baby SOON........

[kristen1978]

: I'm still here too. Only officially "over" by 4 days, but GRRRR. I tried sooooo hard not to take the date seriously -- and always encourage clients not to as well --- but dammit, I want to meet this baby!

[plummum]

Well yep me too (no grr on my side actually, I only stopped working 2 days before my "EDD" so I'm enjoying the holiday!). I guess some aren't even at 40 weeks, but for those of us over 40 weeks (but say still around the median for actual births!), here are some good links I found:

So I will keep answering folks that my baby is due in the next week or so My OB must know this stuff too, but I think I will let him know that I know if he wants to hassle me with induction in Tuesday. (I'll wait till 42 weeks on the dot thanks, or at least get a second opinion from the midwife).

[EkkaGrrl]

I'm still here too. I'm not "officially" due until Friday but I'm getting really worn out by the on again off again contractions. I'm really ready to meet this little girl. I just wish she was ready to meet me. I hate feeling so impatient.

[Twinklefae]

Still here. My LO has decided to be a tease. Thought I was in labour yesterday, but it didn't last. :

Hopefully soon? I'm a week and 2 days over....

Thanks, good links.
I'm only 2 days past my EDD, but I don't really feel rushed to have the baby, yet. I really had no inclination that the baby was coming early. I expect him around the 3rd, although yes the 28th full moon baby would really cool, too. I'm just ready to tuck into the house here and watch movies and read books and sew. I did all my *big* projects my first two weeks of maternity leave and now can just piddle around until this boy decides to come out.

Oh no. I really though that was it for you. The teasing has got to be hard. At least I can honestly say I feel no sign baby is coming...therefore do not expect him anytime soon!
I'm still pulling for you. Hopefully just another day or so.

[bellinismama]

I am still here too, sfter two falso labors, one lasting 24 hours! And now nothing! I am very ready, though not "due" until this Wednesday. DD cam at 38 weeks, so I thought wrongly that I wouldn't have to wait so much for this babe.

Good luck everyone, wishing everyone babies in arms soon!

[bellinismama]

Thanks for the the links. It helps to remind me that the babe will come when it is good for him!

[dctexan]

I am still here. EDD is 8/30 so I still have a few more days before people really start hounding me about the babe. I must say I am quite anxious to meet him though and SUPER ready for these contractions to actually mean something!!! My heart goes out to you "overdue" mommas. Here's hoping that the full moon works its magic :

[Twinklefae]

I'm cramping again, and having lots of "show" and bits so hopefully today...

[BoringTales]

I'm still here too. I'm due on Thursday. At my appointment last Friday I was 2 cm and 50-75% effaced, baby was way down low, mw stripped my membranes...

Yesterday I had some plug coming out, but nothing with 'bloody show', just some very snot like mucous...gross...

No contractions though. My MW said she'd be surprised to see me at my next scheduled appointment on Friday, but I'm starting to think that I will see her there.

My family went for a walk tonight after dinner along the golf course by the light of the moon. It was so beautiful. I did a couple of moon salutations and talked to baby about coming out now. Meredith even told baby "We're ready for you," before she ran off into the sprinklers.

Can we get a headcount? Or have some of you started lurking : over in the Sept. DDC?

[plummum]

Still here! 41w5d.

[EmmaJean]

I'm still here too! I was wondering if those left weren't checking in our ddc anymore...... I just can't bring myself to look in the Sept. group. I've got TWO more days for an Aug. baby.....

I'm officially one week "past" today. I really didn't think I'd be preg. still, but I guess baby is really happy in there.

And ZERO signs of progress besides one or two "interesting" ctx a day. And baby is pretty posterior, although not completely.

[skydancer]

I'm still here and pregnant...

But I joined up with the Sept. ddc from the beginning, since I figured this would happen. I'm only just past 40 weeks, so I could still have a while. Just wanted to let you mamas know that you have company! Best of luck to those still waiting!

[SunChild]

My DD is today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so excited and so impatient not knowing when or how she will decide to come out!

I never thought I would go through to september because I had contractions 2 wks ago, she dropped very early and I sometimes had show.
She's staying put for now.

I wasn't expecting a virgo baby....
