39 wks!!! My countdown has officially begun! Though something tells me I have another 41+ weeker on my hands. Just once I'd like for my kid to show up a little early. My SPD has kicked into high gear so I'm in quite a bit of pain at the moment, so another reason to wish away my pregnancy. I didn't have this with either of my other two & wholy wow does it hurt!!! Been having prodromal labor for the past 2 wks, but at my 38 wk check I was closed & maybe 50% thin, so definitely not encouraging that labor will start anytime soon. I'm just so beyond ready to meet whoever is in my belly.

Finally got the "arrivals" thread updated. If I missed anyone please let me know & congrats to all our mommas who are holding their squishes.

38.5 weeks - last day of work, so hoping I'll have a few days to relax before baby comes. My DS1 said baby will come on Saturday, after his friend's birthday party. He also said he's having a sister "with special robot ears," so I'm anxious to see how many of his predictions might be right!

39 wk checkup & my awesome dr still has me on track for a vbac. He said he's not even thinking rcs unless it becomes medically necessary or I hit 42 wks. I just love him!!!

38 weeks and 5 days! Getting closer and so excited to meet this lil boy or lil girl!! We still have NO girls name at ALL other than that, everything else is ready. Boys name is good to go so we'll have to just wait and see!

41+1 today. I now feel like this little girl is never going to come out. My in laws came for the week and are now leaving before she is born I'm scheduled for induction on Wednesday if she doesn't come over the weekend. Hoping that is'nt the case though! Come on baby, let's do this!

Guess what Monday is mommas?!?!? That's right its a full moon AND my due date! Fx the moon will work its magic over the wkend & first few days of the wk on somebody. I'm actually pretty sure I have at least another week. My babies are usually 41+ weekers. Though I surely wouldn't mind an exception.

Baby girl is here. 1:44am name not decided on yet. 7#5 oz. 19 inches. Dr. Didn't make it to delivery. Nurse delivered head then let dh deliver body. Coolest thing ever. 6 girls and a boy. My son is still super cool about another sister and feels special mamas intuition was right again.
Babies smell like sugar. I forget quickly how intoxicating that is.
Labor vibes to those still waiting----
Pics later. Haven't sleep since Thursday night.

I haven't been keeping up with this group, but I am due July 24th with my 2nd and trying for a VBAC. this pregnancy has gone amazing so far! Now I just need to go into labor! I've been losing my mucus plug for almost 2 days!! No bloody show yet, though. I'm also hoping the full moon Monday night will work its magic!
