[wegrowsheep]

0 weeks left. Today is D Day!
Team Blue, TTM, Round 2
Appt tomorrow, with NST.
How are you holding up? After having 2 due date babies, I'm a little sad not to be in labor. Yet.
What's left on your To Do List? Not freaking much! I finished planting the garden yesterday, so now I feel like I can legitimately do nothing.
And of course, who has an outside baby?? Congrats to carolyngrace and txngrl31, and probably a few others that I can't remember because it's not quite 5am here...

1. One week left exactly until EDD!! June 8
2. FTM!
3. Weekly appointment and NST scheduled for Thursday this week.
4. Nothing--really. I'm feeling really good. I've been ready for weeks, I feel like. Everything that I can control, I've controlled up to this point.

--Called Dr this morning as I've had severe menstrual like cramping for about 24 hours now. Of course, she said, "call back when you have REAL contractions every 5 mins!" Alrighty then!

3 weeks left but I think this kid will be early.

Ftm, blue

Bpp tomorrow and NST & ob Friday

Clean my living room/dining room/kitchen. Sort through all baby gear. Returns. Wash everything I'm keeping. Assemble swing and bouncer. Buy postpartum supplies. Decorate his room. Install car seat bases. Make a list of everything I still need for baby. Pack hospital bag. Wash a million loads of laundry. Paint the trim in the nursery. So yeah. Looks like I still have to do pretty much everything! We got the big furniture set in place, cleaned out the fridge and freezer, got thank you cards mailed out, and our room is clean.

39 weeks today- but only one day to go! TTM, team green

C/S tomorrow at 10:30 (of course barring getting bumped for any emergencies)

Holding up fine but not looking forward to the no eating or drinking deadline at midnight. I feel like hunger naseua plus iv and spinal will lead to an uncomfortable feeling.

Left to do: just little things like making sure all the trash cans are empty and tidying up the house. Then really just putting the bags in the car and getting a good night of sleep!

How many weeks LEFT? technically 1, but we have our c/s today so NONE!! 6 more hours assuming she is still breech and the hospital is running on time. This is too freaky and amazing at the same time.
Team/FTM, STM....? Team PINK FTM
Appts/Inductions scheduled? C-section at 1pm Pacific Time today
How are you holding up? Ok I think. Scared. Excited. Hopeful.
What's left on your To Do List? One last vacuum, shower and head to the hospital

Regular appt on Wednesday. So far no talks of induction or anything

How are you holding up?
Alright. Bad moments but mostly good days! Definitely excited especially now that it's officially June and I will have a baby this month!

What's left on your To Do List?
For the baby? Nothing really. Having had DS premature we started slowly bringing the baby stuff out in the last few weeks

And of course, who has an outside baby??
Just my almost 2 year old lol! He's still my baby!!

I just wanted to pop in between naps and feedings to say "hi" and "I thought of y'all this morning" to all my Monday ticker change mamas. Our baby girl is one week old today and I am slowly learning to get in the groove.

I cannot wait to see birth announcements and celebrate your little ones with you. Y'all got this !!

[holliberry28]

Good luck lc1158 today!

[carolyngrace]

Hey Monday ladies! I thought for sure I'd be with you today, at least one more week! But baby came one day shy of his due date. I will be following along the Monday ticker change as each of you get closer to meeting your babies! Here is a bonus picture of Oscar for the Monday ladies :-)

[tjanca22]

1. Just 1 week to go!
2. Team green, FTM
3. Normal weekly appt on Thurs
4. Still hanging in there. Something is telling me that I'll go past my EDD since baby is still sitting pretty high.
4. Not too much left in the To Do List, clean my house and do some laundry. I'll feel better once things are a bit cleaner around here.
5. No outside baby for me.

How are you holding up? I'm ready for an outside baby! So uncomfortable...I won't bore you with my list of complaints.

What's left on your To Do List? Hang nursery picture frames and get car seat installed in DH's car!

[redlipz]

How many weeks LEFT? 1 weeks!

Team/FTM, STM....? Green baby ttm

Appts/Inductions scheduled? Had my 39 week apt today. She freakin asked me if I EAT! Yes I freakin eat! She said "you must be one of the ones that just doesn't gain a lot of weight"...this wasn't my regular doctor.

How are you holding up? I'm tired.

What's left on your To Do List? Have a baby. I think everything's done. I won't be deep cleaning anymore because the house is upside down 5 minutes later with my 3&4 year olds.

And of course, who has an outside baby?? Not yet

[amber311]

How many weeks LEFT?
4 weeks left....I'm dying
Team/FTM, STM....?
Team pink FTM!
Appts/Inductions scheduled?
appt on wed for first internal check!
How are you holding up?
I'm exhausted. I have so much pelvic pain I don't k ow how long I'm going to make it at work.
What's left on your To Do List?
We close on our house next week thursday so essentially everything

[amber311]

carolyngrace‌ omg he is perfect! I was thinking about you earlier today wondering when you'd pop! Congrats!

[ombradellarosa]

How many weeks LEFT? 0. I expected to go late but I was so hoping to be on time. I guess we have all day, but it sure doesn't feel like anything is happening, especially compared to having contractions all last week.
Team/FTM, STM....? Girl, FTM
Appts/Inductions scheduled? I have an appointment first thing tomorrow morning and if I haven't had the baby they're planning to schedule me an induction for 41 weeks. I don't want to be induced. I have no medical need for it and baby is doing fine. I'd rather she come by herself. I'm thinking of asking if they can schedule it for 42 weeks instead. But my doctor is very secure in his experience and firmly believes there's no reason to wait longer than 41 weeks and the risk is too high. We don't see eye to eye on delayed cord clamping either. Combine this with the long wait times in his office, I'm not sure I'll be seeing him for the next one. In the meantime I am just praying labour starts spontaneously this week so I don't have to deal with it. I am so nervous and I know that's counterproductive
How are you holding up? Not well. I want to punch all the people who assured me I'd have a burst of energy right at the end in the face. I had a burst of energy all right, I was so motivated to get everything done, and now I'm exhausted and sleeping all the time. I am going crazy not knowing when labour will start or if I will recognise it when it does. People keep saying I will but considering how many people don't know and how much material there is on the subject I think that's poppycock. Besides it is absolutely no help to me NOW. I didn't realise how disappointed I would be even though I expected to be late. Not least because I am so terrified of getting a medically-unnecessary induction. I don't know whether to trust my doctor's experience or all the reading I've done on the subject that says he's wrong. Not to mention that due to my cycles before conception it's very likely I am actually 39 weeks right now. I just don't know what to do.
What's left on your To Do List? Few enough things that I feel comfortable with baby arriving. My list has gone up to 191 items and I only have 20 of them left to complete! So I am feeling good about that My primary concerns right now are getting the room ready for baby, general tidying up around the house, and putting the finishing touches on the hospital bags.
And of course, who has an outside baby?? Congrats to the ladies with babies!

[wegrowsheep]

ombradellarosa I feel the frustration. I am choosing to drown mine in baking (Rhubarb Delight) and making DH rub my feet while I potentially cry about not having a third due date child. This may or may not be completely shallow, but I'm okay with it right now.

Sounds like a plan. I've just been doing nothing all day And now I'm realising that I have an appointment first thing in the morning and I can't find the preadmission form it took me weeks to fill out and I haven't picked out a breast pump for the doctor to prescribe me. So I'm trying to eat dinner, find the form, and pick a breast pump and I'm falling asleep. 

[megd893]

I'm late but I'm here!

How many weeks LEFT? 3 as of yesterday.
Team/FTM, STM....? FTM
Appts/Inductions scheduled? Not an actual induction, but doc is planning a sweep today at my 37w appt. We'll see if I'm a) dialated so he can do it and b) what happens
How are you holding up? Sleep is an old, OLD friend now. No position is comfortable for more than 45 minutes. Also, my fuse is much shorter than its ever been. Pregnancy rage is real ya'll.
What's left on your To Do List? Throw a few things in the hospital bag and look into renting a pump for the first few weeks.
And of course, who has an outside baby?? Not this guy!

ETA:  carolyngrace he's so WONDERFUL!  A friend just named her baby Oscar as well.  I love it Congrats!
