Ladies at the very end...

who else is going bonkers...yesterday i had a really bad meltdown....i'm so upset, i really really thought i'd go a few days before my due date, esp. since this is second baby. My leg hurts so bad, my crotch area kills, i can't keep up with the mess in the house (mostly from my 3 year old son)..and yesterday i was soo damm hot! Hoping for a better day today...next weekend is memorial day and i don't want to be in the hospital then..plus its my son's birthday weekend...ok, vent over...needed to get that out!!!

Re: Ladies at the very end...

I am right there with you I need this baby out asap!! I keep crying for no reason and yesterday I snapped on DH and felt really bad after.. This is taking a toll on me, especially since DD is 4 and DS is almost 14 months Hang in there.. I'm trying..

Re: Ladies at the very end...

aww i'm sorry. DD's birthday is also next weekend and im hoping im not in the hospital for her birthday!

Have you tried long walks? walking up and down the stairs ALOT, and squats?? I remember doing some squats the day before DD was born.

It's frustrating but the day will be here before you know it.

Re: Ladies at the very end...

Yep in the same place and I'm only 3 days past 40 weeks :( Just so much pressure and discomfort that I can't really walk anymore. I'm frustrated and scared of whats to come at the same time. I know we will all go within the next 2 weeks but it is hard to get through day to day sometimes. I'm looking forward to at least having my husband with me over the weekend, it helps to have company.

Re: Ladies at the very end...

thanks gilrls..but at least we can go through this together..well somewhat..lol.

I never cry and yesterday started crying uncontrollable. My son was trying to cheer me up...

Personally i think i'm going to end up getting induced again..i dont think my body knows how to go into labor on its own. I haven't even had any false labor..no cramps or anything.

And so we wait.....

Re: Ladies at the very end...

Right there with ya sista! Been having cramps/contractions for 2 days and got nervous/excited when I found some blood this morn thinking things were happening. Ironically had a doc appt right after, and he shoots me down and says nothing is going on... Cervix still high... Really?!?!

I left feeling so depressed. So I have another appt next week and found out if she doesn't come on her own, he will schedule me for an induction on the 30th. I'm praying she comes before then

Re: Ladies at the very end...

I'm so there! I'm beyond DONE! My scheduled date is only 4 days before my due date. I went 15 days early with dd do I'm praying I'll go early again but I don't feel anything! My house is a huge wreck! Just started putting together all the gear and I forgot how much room all this stuff takes up! My dd has come down with a nasty cold. I can't wait to
Give birth and not be pregnant anymore.

Re: Ladies at the very end...

I hear ya. Im almost 38 weeks. Sleeping is an absolute nightmare. Every position either hurts or cuts off circulation. And the fact that I dont get any sleep during the night makes me a real ***** during the day. I have no patience anymore. Everything hurts. I was hoping to hold out until my scheduled csection date of May 30 because it's also our wedding anniversary and things would just go a lot more smoothly since it will be planned. But now Im kind of really hoping it happens earlier.

Re: Ladies at the very end...

I am sorta felling the opposite of you but it has me equally frustrated! I am 38 wks +1 and while I am uncomfortable, I am not overly so. I am still working, taking the subway, walking a minimum of 30 minutes daily and still feel pretty decent doing it! I just want this baby to drop or my body to give signs that I am close! I was 10 days past due with DD and really don't want to be late again.
