tikoberry99, I'd personally avoid the castor oil. I've never done it, but a coworker did, and she just ended up with diarrhea and was miserable!
I'm going out tonight with some friends who are throwing me a little baby sprinkle. I'm excited to get dressed up and have a fun evening!
This weekend is moving weekend. So there will be no engaging in any possible activity that could result in me going into labor! But I'm pretty sure DIY labor strategies don't work for me. I walked this 2 mile loop 3x/day for about 3 weeks with my son as well as had sex, bounced on a ball, and pretty much everything, and he was a week late. I should have spent my time relaxing which I fully intend to do this time around!
rungirlrun I'm sure I'll still be here too. EDD is the 26th and I'm thinking I'll go that week. I hope I don't go much later, but this part of the pregnancy is all new to me. With ds we were praying to keep him in week after week, so being this pregnant and not having any monitoring is making me feel very nervous! I don't know what to expect.
I hope people stick around. Jan14 died off quickly after we had our babies. I think there was a strange FB/private board split and I wasn't that active so I didn't join in.
It's interesting how many of the July group has already given birth - and everyone has gone before their due date. Statistically speaking, about half of us should give birth after her due date. So I guess those of us left who haven't given birth and have no induction/CS scheduled are bound to go late. I'm putting myself in that group just to not get my hopes up for an early delivery. I'm already planning on having an August baby so hopefully some of you will still be around at that point!
I don't want to go after!!! lol Although it looks like with GD they won't let me go past 40. Which I am totally fine with. July 1st looks fantastic though! lol
rungirlrun I don't like the way you think, DNW to go over 40 weeks haha! Either way I plan on sticking around once Sam arrives, I've really enjoyed having all of you to talk to and commiserate with.
beebe918 I'm so glad that things finally progressed and your little one arrived so quickly after your water broke! Congratulations!
mugster ahhh, how exciting! I just remembered I'm your labor buddy! Let me know if you want to PM and swap numbers and I can keep everyone updated, or you just do your thing. Whatever you feel like doing

I'm due July 21 and honestly wouldn't be surprised if I ended up with another August baby. DD took her sweet time. Everything seems more "active" this time but I'm not getting my hopes up.

I fully expect S to stay in until I am induced in 3.5 weeks... Not that I'm counting down the days or anything.
I was so busy today at work and didn't have time to TCF! It was stressful but I'm ok now. No real plans for this weekend. I get off at 11:30 am on Friday and am off until Tuesday with L. We will set off some fireworks Sunday night and H will work on Monday for double time and a half.

This is true! I'm a part of the second FB group but some people are in both. I don't remember, what was your SN on TB? I have noticed our littles are close in age before!

It was something very similar. The numbers were probably different. Melody is my dogs name, but the numbers are totally random.
TB app sucked and it was difficult to navigate the page on mobile so I barely participated

Gotcha! It was impossible on mobile, I primarily posted at work on a desktop until FB.

I plan on sticking around, I like having others that are in the same boat as me when things come up, like sleep regression or teething or tips for baby wearing, etc. Even as a STM I'm sure there will be times I need advice or at least commiseration.

I'm struggling with the first half of the night, sleep-wise... Usually up to pee a million times, hard to get comfortable. Tonight I've got awful heartburn and I've already taken a Zantac (with dinner) and two Tums (just now). Chewing gum now and propped up on four pillows. I just want to sleep!
katelou yes to diy induction....we have had a lot of sex, lots of walking and spicy food. I won't know until Friday if I'm dilated. My neighbor swears by castor oil, but I don't think I'm that hard core. She used it to induce her last two pregnancies.
I've heard great things about castor oil but also heard it gives you awful diarrhea, and I'm just not sure that's something I'm wanting to deal with haha
On the other hand, I have a friend who used it and she still went for another week and a half, but had terrible shits for 3 days. /anecdote
I just typed out more than anyone probably wants to know on the pregnancy board in the randoms thread if you want to condense and post an update on paif that would be great!
