We can have the baby.
In a panic I ran out last night and got the rest of everything I needed for the baby. Ever since the baby dropped in the past 3 days I have been feeling things, certain pains, settling in my pelvis, my leg even felt like it was coming out of the socket at one point. Also this urgency to get everything NOW. Baby bag is packed and today I'll pack my hospital bag.

Lovin, are you ready? I mean, you're the pro, even though I have 1 child I never felt any labor, not even dropping.

Anybody else have that urgency/panic at the end?

With my first kid, I had bags packed but only because I didn't know when I'd need them. He ended up being 2 weeks late and they induced. With my second, I figured he'd be late too so I didn't do anything to get ready. I ended up going to a regular appointment about 3 weeks before my due date and they said I was 7cm dialated and in labor. I felt nothing. They told me to go to the hospital immediately. I said no because I had no arrangements as to where to take our then 3 yr old. No bags packed. Nothing!! I told them that if I started feeling anything I'd go in. I went home and got stuff ready but didn't go into the hospital until almost 2 days later, still not feeling any pain but was bleeding.

Awwww, MB :huggy:

I'm sooooo excited for you!! :biggrin:

Whoa. I love hearing all the possibilities.... I really think deep down inside we know when to react and right now my body says get ready.

I got everything ready for the boy and the pups too :yay:

I got my "nesting panic" about a month prior to the onset of labor for both my babies.

My sister is due in 3 weeks. She's got several bags packed - one for her, one for the dad, one for the grandfather (her dad/my stepdad) and one for my other sister. I think she's more than ready! :lol:

The only one I wasn't packed and ready for was the last one. I had a planned c-section on the 28th. She came on the 26th, three weeks before my due date.

chasey does your sister think everyone is going to move into the hospital with her when she has the baby LOL ?

When are you due chasey?

BTS, Morningbell, I dropped a little over a month before labor.

My sister is due on belvak's birthday!

:fixed: :biggrin:

Morningbell, Good Luck and Happy Baby!! :buddies:

When are you due chasey?

yeah chasey. When are you due? :killingme

someone may need to first break the news to her that she's pregnant.

:clap: I didn't even know Chasey was pregnant!!!! :thewave:

With #1, I was packed and ready to go early as I didn't know what to expect.

With #2, I was barely prepared, but winging it posed no problems.

With #3, I finished my prep when I dropped (much like you're doing now).

With #4, I got pregnant with her so fast I didn't have time to unpack from #3! No preparation was really needed, as it was already there.

Four kids, all done differently. :lol:

Bottom line...trust your instincts. :yay:

then why does it say its a boy due october 2009 so i gussed she was preggers unless soemone else is and she just put it on as one of her quotes.

She is going to be an aunt :clap:

With my first... 2 1/2 weeks before labor... I went through a bout of Braston Hicks I thought for sure was the real deal... became really noticable at 20 minutes apart, progressed to 5 minutes apart... went to the hospital only to be told I was "practicing" go back home and wait for the real deal. Sure enough it was only practice...:ohwell:

Good for you girl! Glad you have everything together and are ready to go!

I have nothing packed :lol: I have never gone early, I have always been late and had to be induced w/ the previous 4.

Dr. Polko told me when I was pregnant w/ Baby Jack that since it had been so long between the other kids that it would be like being pregnant for the first time again (in regards to labor, dropping, etc...)

In spite of any past disagreements, fusses, I wish all the present, soon to be, & future Moms all the best with their new family additions. u r welcome in advance. See I can be nice after all. After all I am a Libra also.

That was nice of ya!

MB,

I am so excited for you! :clap: Could you remind me when you are due again?

Dr. Polko told me when I was pregnant w/ Baby Jack that since it had been so long between the other kids that it would be like being pregnant for the first time again (in regards to labor, dropping, etc...)

I was told that as well with the 17 year difference in pregnancies. They said it's like the first one all over again.

I knew it was the "real deal" baby day with both... For both, my water broke while I was sleeping...:doh: One of my fav baby stories is when my water broke at 2 a.m. with our first baby and I shook the hubby awake saying, "Hey, we are going to have a baby." Thinking it was another one of my pregnancy middle-of-the-night philisophical moments he said, "Yes dear. Yes we are and proceed to go right back to sleep." :lol: I said, "Ummm. today. We are having a baby today... my water just broke." He jumped straight out of bed as if his azz caught on fire...:lol:

wow that is quite an age difference between your kids. How does the older one like the younger one?

The oldest one is jealous of her, the middle one could care less. He's only seen her twice.

I would love to have a funny story like that! for some reason my babies like to cook longer than normal :lol:

that isn't good the oldest is jealous. Its not like you ditched him/her and give all the love to the baby. I am the youngest and I am not jealous of my brother at all as a matter of fact my brother doesn't even live in the same state anymore.

The oldest one is jealous of her, the middle one could care less. He's only seen her twice.

Really? She is jealous of your little one? :popcorn: So SoMDGirl42 please tell us more. Is your little one jealous of your eldest's little one? Or her oldest? :killingme :confused:

So any news? How long do they say after you drop do you normally go into labor?

"Yep, uh-huh, sounds about right".... my Dr is my yes man :lamo:

Today was my official last day of work. It wasn't as crazy as it was on Saturday night when I worked, I SWORE I was going to go into labor on Saturday night when I came home from work, I felt things moving down, possibly opening? Turns out it was just back pain and some serious practice contractions but I'll need an internal to see if my cervix is open.

The woman doing the child birthing classes at SMH said that because of the space between my son and this one it could be like I'm starting over..... so I guess then 4 more weeks it it :ohwell:

How about you? Any feelings/signs that labor is near? I'm hoping this moon should be helping us bring labor along....

Nope nothing new my way... I am 1 centimeter dialated :bigwhoop:

I am so exhausted I am ready... but then again I am not ready mentally, financially, etc... So I am content w/ being miserably big and preggo :sigh:

Why on earth would you want to deliver your baby 4 weeks early...:confused:

First, I really think my due date is off. I was keeping track of my cycle in the beginning when we first started trying to get pregnant. The further we got into it it was becoming frustrating keeping track and nothing happening. Then came school and I wasn't keeping track at all. So my last cycle was a guesstimate. Other reasons for delivering 4 weeks early.... there is no more room for this baby to go. My first child was 10lbs 5oz and a week late, this one isn't as big but there is no room left in my short torso.

In my birthing class they said that anything from 37 weeks on is considered full term.

I am really tired too, just the few hours I worked this morning has me :yawn:
Plus the constant waking at night to pee.... do we really get any good sleep? As far as you're concerned, you need it to be over.... soon. I feel for you :huggy:

We can have the baby.

Gotcha... it's the normal "wishful thinking" in the last month ramblings...:lol: I wish for you a happy health baby that doesn't make it's presentation until it's done baking! Hang in there!
