+1 for last day of work but I haven't even went to work yet and I'm a mess. I am super stoked that I'm lucky enough to get over 14 months of with LO but it's soooo hard to leave my kidlets.
Also I didn't sleep worth crap last night because I kept panicking about my water breaking (doctor said that because my amniotic fluid is so high that if my water breaks naturally there is a risk of cord prolapse....she said not to worry about it and just make sure that if my water breaks I go strait to the hospital to get checked but I couldn't help worrying).
While getting in the car this am, DS1 said "mama, I'm sad that little brother is coming out of your body soon."
Why don't you just stab me in the heart, my little one?
A friend of mine (who's due date was 9 weeks after mine, but will deliver in 5.5 weeks)'s oldest son asked her "how come Mrs. Silv3rlining's baby is already here?" He doesn't understand due dates and is eager for his baby brother to be born.

I'm freaking miserable. I can't sleep, can't breathe, can't eat, and I'm uncomfortable no matter what I do. This baby has to come out of me soon. I can't take it, I can't stop crying.
Also, how long would you let a headache go on before calling your doc? I woke up with one after an hr-ish long 'nap' at 10:30 last night, and then it continued this morning. It has eased a little since I woke up with me drinking 50+oz of water so far this morning. (for reference, BP was 110/76 on Wednesday, so I'm leaning more towards dehydration than anything more serious)

bendherova, I'd wait a few more hours, and if it gets worse, call the doctor.
pghtruelove, sorry you're feeling so miserable. We don't have too much time left to go.
My urethral bleeding continues. I left msg for my OB yesterday at 2. Never got a call back. I understand I'm a bit of an annoyance, but is it too much to expect a call back at least that day? Doesn't help that this whole prolapse is making me panic that something terrible will happen during labor...irrational fears.

My LO decided last night from 3:30-6:30 was party time. He was also up at midnight to eat and I didn't fall back asleep until 2am. So fucking tired today. Ugghh.

My 7 year old nephew has 3 younger siblings that were born via c-section so he doesn't understand that we don't pick the day the baby is coming. But he very firmly informed me that I cannot have the baby on his birthday which is the day after my due date. I told him I have no control over it and he said to tell the doctor that date was already taken.

I'm officially 41 weeks pregnant for the second time in a row! I'd be lying if I said that I was excited about that fact though... haha. GET OUT ALREADY.

Eta - because quotes didn't work
Yeah, I just think DS1 doesn't want baby brother to come at all. Not that he is interested in when.

41 weeks! Oh honey! It's time! Sending labor vibes your way! Come on baby!!
Just checked in with the hospital to confirm my noon induction, and they are behind. They will call me in a couple of hours with a new time. Am I ever going to have this baby?
39 weeks today. Woke up with a backache and some menstrual like cramps higher up that usual. Had a decent poop (after 3 false starts) and still feel the same. Ob in an hour, fingers crossed for progress from "a finger tip" 3 weeks ago.
Eta: also had a gush of what I can best assume is discharge before I got out of bed. Makes me wonder though...

OMG 3 days to go and I'm falling the fuck apart. Yesterday towards the end of the day, I started having pain the the left side of my right heel. By the time I got home from school, it was excruciatingly painful to walk on it. Tried to rest/ice it but no pregnant lady can resist the bathroom for very long stretches. Also around noon, I started to feel a little congested and thought it was allergies, but by the time I got home from school I had a sore throat too. Today there's a small accompanying headache. Add these two to my UTI and I'm starting to freak out that they're going to want to reschedule my c-section. Even if they don't, it's going to be tremendously un-fun to give birth while sick. WHY GOD WHY? I'm so close to the end! Being 39+ weeks pregnant is miserable enough without all this nonsense too. Oh, and it also forced me to be the speshul snowflake who called out sick on the last day of school. Fabulous.
bendherova my OBs told me to call with each headache that lasts more than half a day. This is likely why I'm getting induced Sunday - they don't like to mess around with my combo of headaches and other things!
Holy hell I'm having a baby Monday. Well, likely Monday. Suddenly all of my pregnancy complaints don't really matter and I'm kind of nostalgic for being pregnant haha.

given that we have the same OBs, I'll call at noon if it's still around. It's sorta half and half right now.

I never had bp issues (minus two high readings), but I still ended up with pre- e because of other indicators. Like other PPs, I'd call. Is the pollen count high in your area?
OB appointment in a couple hours and I'm crossing my fingers that I've made good progress since last week!
My ILs are getting car maintenance in the town over today so they want to take me out to lunch. I really don't want to have to get dressed and sit in a public restaurant right now I'm just so damn big and barely fit into anything anymore! And I'm just not up to hanging out with them without H. How do I get out of this tactfully? This would be an excellent day to go into labor.
Sadly no contractions, cervical mucus, or bloody show going on down there aside from the occasional mild cramp. Womp womp womp...

pollen is low. I did have some ankle swelling (that has gone down) yesterday, but I attributed that to it being 93 degrees and me being on my feet all day.

Hopefully you just need to rest today and you'll feel much better come your c-section date. Feel better, I know it's hard when you feel like your body is just working against you so close to the end...
Today is my first day on maternity leave that I have nothing planned. So I'm binge watching Parks and Rec. Mucus plug is gone and last night before bed contractions were up to 5 and a half minutes apart but I was able to sleep (best night of sleep in AGES!!). Now I have no idea how far apart, I'm kinda just feeling them ... Might not be the smartest thing but I figure they're just there right now, nothing too bad. My parents are coming in for a cousins graduation so I'm hoping we can go walking and kiddo could be here soon. Or he'll show up in 2 weeks
