So, who's going to be The Last?

I'm on the fence here.

I definitely think I might be going into August...

But not sure about Last Baby.

Well, I suppose I could throw my hat in, since my actual due date is August 9th, but I never dreamed I would make it that far! 38 weeks tomorrow.

My actual due date is August 8 and I thought I would have at least dilated to 3 cm by now. No, nothing. I'm still pregnant. I fear I'll go over my due date.

Maybe if we want to be last we'll all have our babies this week...

If there was a prize for being last!

hmmm...

I had a dream last night my mw called me and broke the news to me I was the last hold out for July. I talked to her this morning and learned there are still 5 babies to be born (including mine) for July due dates!! I still have this suspicion that I will be last...

Ooh, I should ask my mw how many July EDDs she has left...

Well, if it's true that a baby's birth can be delayed if the mom doesn't feel ready, I think I may have a shot. I've been trying and trying to get these stupid projects done for work before the baby comes, and more stupid work stuff keeps coming up that prevents me from making any real progress on the original projects--at this rate, I may NEVER finish! And then I'll NEVER be ready for the birth! Argh!!! :

But, this baby might decide she's coming, whether I'm ready or not, so I think the smart money might be on those with official August due dates. lol.

It might be me. My original EDD was 8/1 but then 20 week ultrasound jumped it today. No sign of anything, so I could go as late as the middle of August.

Well, they changed my due date to 8/3 after my zillions of u/s, so I thought I would be one of the last "July" babies. Then I had all that PTL so I thought, okay, maybe not! But then it just seemed like things kept getting in the way (like baby being transverse, etc.), so again, I thought "Watch! This kid, for all the troubles and PTL and my other 2 being 38 weekers, is gonna be a 42 weeker!" But now that my fluids are going down AGAIN and I am being induced on Monday, it looks like it's NOT gonna be me! *sigh* I have been on SUCH the emotional roller coaster!

Hyz - best of luck getting everything done before your LO decides to show up!!

Maybe me but with all these August due dates who knows. I am due on Sunday and last night she stripped my membranes. I was kind of taken by surprise when she offered and wished she had asked earlier in the day and given me more time to think about it. Part of me is nervous to wait too long- I am very small and my husband is very big. And part of me feels like however long this little bubs needs to cook is fine.
Good luck, hmmm, prize for last, sounds like a deal. Maybe mothering would get in on the action? A free subscription would be nice (jk of course)
