I have a growth scan, NST and appt this morning. I'm glad it's first thing. I can't wait to see if anything has progressed. Going to talk more about my induction since 39 weeks is only 12 days out and reaching that point is feeling more realistic. I'm hoping she's open to doing it a few days before that point, for emotional reasons. Someone that caused me a lot of stress and trouble has a birthday of 3/14 and I'd prefer DD not share a birthday with him.
I'm hoping I can take the car in to the mechanic today. Or tomorrow would work too. I also need to wrap something up for work so I need to force myself to do that before noon.
erinshelley21, hope the appointment goes well! I'm sorry about the association with the birthday thing Hopefully it works out that babe comes before or after that day, but if not your bay will make a new association for you in time.
erinshelley21, my OB said they won't do it before exactly 39+0. I am still kinda hoping my girl comes on 3/17 because I think that would be a fun birthdate!
TMI, but I know the mucous plug doesn't always come out in one piece. Did anyone have theirs come out without blood? There was a ton of mucous today, which I haven't had all pregnancy, so I'm wondering if this is the start of the plug, or if it's just random.
Mine has coke out slowly without blood both times.

This is how I've decided to approach it. Induction is scheduled for 3/14 at 8am and if she's born that day then it's now her day.
Exactly. Bit, I don't require downtime to fall asleep. So basically as soon as the baby is out I crash.
So much this. Even though my baby isn't home yet, I'm setting alarms to wake up and pump MOTN. Unlike my months of pregnancy insomnia and struggling to fall back asleep after getting up to pee, I'm pretty sure I'm falling asleep within 1-2 minutes of my head hitting the pillow again.
DH and I are EXTREMELY good sleepers.
An example of this is when he was on his submarine while active duty. DH could sleep on the metal floor if all the beds were taken.
AFM, I'm in the middle of prepping 33 freezer meals. If DH wasn't home to help I'm not sure I would survive this b/c my back is DONE already, and I'm barely halfway done. This better be worth it when I don't have to think about dinner for a month!
Also, I woke up this morning and DH said, "woah, you dropped". I think he has said that several times now, but considering DD1 definitely didn't drop until 41w, I'm as hopeful as ever that this baby will decide to come on her own! Anytime before 4/1 would be good..I just really don't want an April Fool's baby (if it happens, it happens, but any other day would be great).
I feel like an icicle I am so damn cold. I just want this spinal to wear off so I can get in a wheelchair and go see her.
They're saying it may be a whole day now before we get her. Originally they thought it'd be 4hrs or less. I know it could be so much worse but every minute that passes I'm feeling less and less OK with her being away. Whenever my H comes back to see me I'm like "thanks now go back to her please".
