Who else is due near Halloween??

[Wildecat]

After reading many posts the last month I have seen other people due on Halloween(10/31) or close to it. I just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully hear back from others due the same time as me.
My name is Jaime and I live in NW Arkansas. I have been visiting this forum for about 2 months now and LOVE it. I am planning a waterbirth at home with my wonderful Midwife. My DH and I want everything completely natural with no interventions at all. I am not going to do any herbs or self-induction methods either. I am a FTM and just want everything to happen naturally.
DH and I took Bradley classes and they really helped to instill confidence in both of us that we can have the natural birth that we want, the birth that my body was intended to have.
Many people are due the begginning of the month and I know that those of us due later on will continue to need support from eachother especially that close to labor. I would love to hear from all late October Mammas!

I'm due on halloween! It's our first, too, and I'm also not planning on doing any natural induction methods (well, not now anyways, talk to me in November when I'm still pregnant). My DH and I thought about doing a pool, but we're worried that it will be too much for us to think about, so maybe for the next birth. We have a great private deck off of our bedroom, and if we were pg in July I'd say we could put the pool out there, but there isn't really room for it anywhere else in the house.

I'm due Oct. 28...so we could easily have a Halloween baby. DH is against that for some reason. If we DON'T have a baby by then we plan to paint my belly as a jack-o-lantern!

30th is my due date. Welcome

[kleines]

I am due the 16th by US, but by MY calculations it is closer to the 25. Either way, I am sure I will go past my EDD!

[Apryl Srissa]

I'm another due the 30th too. But I'm doubting I'll make it till the 15th lol

But if I do, I'm painting my belly too (or, well, someone is painting it, not me I guess lol

[cherubess]

I'm due on the 30th and really hoping that I'll make it to then.

I have a lot of family and friend's whose birthdays fall in early/mid October and I would really like my baby's birthday to be separate from theirs.

Unfortunately if this baby remains breech it will mean a c/s and I don't think that I'll make it to the end of the month then.

Welcome!

I am due the 25th, but I expect to go later. You sound so confident, that's so wonderful! I'm glad you and your dh liked your bradley classes.

I'm due the 26th by my dates, or November 5th by ultrasound/fundal height. I'm thinking around November 1st. We shall see!
I'm glad there's a few other late October mamas! I was sort of expecting chirping crickets and tumbleweeds in our DDC by the time I give birth.

[Quirky]

Another Halloween due date here, although I'm hoping for some day other than the 31st.

[2bluefish]

I'm due the 26th. Hoping for the 10th - mom's birthday.

[zak]

EDD is the 28th based on ovulation date... I fully expect a November baby.

[Belle]

I'm due on Halloween too. I expect this one will be a week or two early. My dd was born 10 days before her edd.

[kconterio]

i'm due the 27th, and hoping i'll go early! but it would be nice to have a halloween baby, instant birthday parties for her whole life!

[jlmack45]

I am due sometime between the 22nd and the 30th. I am just hoping for a medicine free, natural birth.

[marlygf]

I'm not due on Halloween, but I'm the 21st and could potentially go to the 2nd of November. It's funny how some have gone early but there are still those of us who have lots of time
Welcome!

How is everyone feeling? I just started to feel different. I think I actually feel my hormones changing and am starting prelabor. I will probabely make it to my due date or close but just be in prelabor the whole month. I am glad that I am having so many braxton hicks contractions because then my labor might be eaiser. I dunno, I am a FTM and very optimistic. I read all of the birth stories and am getting excited!
Anyone else feeling the begginning of labor yet?

[mittendrin]

Nope, and I am pushing it by going on walks and carrying stuff Not intentionally tho, cause I don't wanna go early. But I have two kids and a 3 story condo...
My babysitter will be out of the country from the 5th on so that baby better come on time! I don't have a backup

[Maeve]

I'm due the 30th also.
