Yep, still here. And desperately need to hold out until at least Sunday/Monday. My OB is out of town for the night tonight and the backup handling his patients is a "NO VBAC" OB. So legs closed ...

39w today!

Yay Zoie!

I'm 40wks and a day. I think I might have just lost part of my mucous plug. My doctor stripped my membranes on Wednesday and I've had tons of painful contractions since then, even getting down to 6 minutes apart but they tapered off. I had spotting after that, but this was a big nasty chunk of brownish stuff and some more stringy light brownish stuff after that. Could be the plug, right? Does that mean maybe these painful contractions are making me dilate a little bit?

If you feel contractiony (: for that not happening) please send those feelings over to me. I'll trade you for some completely non-productive Braxton-Hickses.

Update us soon Zoie!!!

I'm still here cookin' a baby. I'm VERY grumpy this morning, as my 17 mo ds was up ALL night to nurse. WTH is with this, the last couple of nights he's like a newborn!

Anyways... going to an amusement park with some other mama's and kiddos, maybe all of the walking/running after lo's will shake the baby out!?!

He's doing nipple stim because he wants to see the new baby soon.

DD is getting so bored --- since I feel like doing nothing compared to our usual active schedule. So, we are going to open gym at the gymnastics center today. I think I will jump on the trampoline some!

Good luck, Zoie!

I'm still here, and am 41 weeks today. Tons of BH again last night, but they've since fizzled out. Going for my first NST tomorrow A.M.

Despite my best intentions, I did end up being slug-like and crabby yesterday, and didn't accomplish much other than pitching in on a project for work (I was bored and happy to help).

Well, today is a new day.

So...eggplant parm for dinner, anyone?

I asked this on the other thread, but I'll ask here too...anyone know if you actually have to make that recipe, or can I go to an Italian place and order some? I really suck at cooking, I don't want to attempt to make it if I don't have to.

I think this may be my last day posting here. Last night I thought for sure that things were gonna happen. dh and I dtd twice. Which resulted in ctx 5 min apart and 1 min long for a couple of hrs. Nothing too heavy though, lots of pressure. Those petered out eventually and I fell asleep with an electric heat pad on my abdomen. I lost my mucus plug and I still have bloody show coming out on the toilet paper every time I pee. Hoping my water breaks today.

Yay Zoie! Hope all goes well!

Good luck Megan!

I've been having cramps and bloody show all morning. DS and I went for a nice walk, so we'll see! I'm due tomorrow and it would be crazy if she actually showed up on the right day... I didn't think that actually happened!

Still pregnant. 40 weeks +4 days. I had a doctor appointment today and she said that baby has dropped sinse I saw her on Tuesday and I actually lost 2 pounds. I celebrated by having an ice cream.

I have an order for an ultrasound Monday morning to check fluid levels if I don't give birth over the weekend.
