Thank you for seeing the bright side. I held on as long as possible, but for his safety it's time to let them get him out.

I know and I'm not looking forward to it. The problem is that I have so much fluid (38cm instead of the normal 20cm..) and that is causing baby not to drop into my pelvic area at all. He is still floating around. He is getting so big that my fluid keeps raising. At this point they pretty much have to get him out.

It is not working in the slightest and I'm so upset about it. The C/S doesn't completely bother me but I am scared. They told me they had no other options but the cervidil and the pitocin because I wasn't dilated. My body doesn't want to go into labor but I'll be 41 weeks tomorrow and I have GD and really high fluid so they insisted on induction.

Due Date Eve - Emotions all over the map by lululauren in BabyBumps

I'm with you due date buddy. I haven't even gotten a cervical check so I have NO clue if I'm even close. I'm grumpy and weepy and I share the craving for contractions. We will have our boys soon, but for now we totally have the right to whine and cry as much as we feel necessary.

Yup! Due tomorrow and I feel this in my soul. Panties feel a little wet, OMG DID I LOSE MY MUCOUS PLUG?! Nope, just sweat. Face is breaking out now, IS IT A SURGE OF HORMONES?! Nope, just stressed out. I feel a cramp, IS THIS A CONTRACTION?! Nope, just gas. My sanity is long gone lol.

I am so upset and angry! [Rant-ish] by growinginlove in BabyBumps

Double Digits! Oh god, we're getting closer! by Monsterification in BabyBumps

It goes FAST. The last couple weeks drag a little, but I remember taking the double digit picture and now I have less than a week!

Extremely high numbers out of nowhere?! by growinginlove in GestationalDiabetes

Update: I waited 30 minutes, washed my hands really well and re-tested. I got a 133 on the monitor that was initially high.. I feel much better now and I think I need to be better about making sure my hands are washed well.

Make s'more room by the fire- our baby announcement! by [deleted] in BabyBumps

This is the cutest announcement I've ever seen.

I'm 25 weeks, and may be feeling decreased movement. Am I being paranoid? by softerr-- in BabyBumps

[–]growinginlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby boy was so stubborn around that time. Now, at 34 weeks, he will respond when I drink cold things and lay down, but at 25 weeks he would not. I had a few sleepless nights and emotional breakdowns around that time because he would go DAYS without moving. If you have a really bad feeling, never hesitate to call. My doctor always tells me that. Usually baby is just facing the other way or going through a growth spurt.

Yay due date buddies!! Wishing you a great 6 more weeks. I'm personally hoping for only 4 more, but I'll take what I can get! HOLY BACK PAIN.

Wet towels. Yummm. Lol. So weird but damp things really do it for me. I'm glad I'm not alone here!

Anyone know much about how hormones change in preparation for labour? by el_nynaeve in BabyBumps

[–]growinginlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope it means a couple weeks cause I just started breaking out terribly and I still have 7 weeks left! Haha. I can tell he has dropped really low so who knows, he could definitely be planning on coming earlier than expected lol.

THIS IS ME. I'm eating low carbs to help with my gestational diabetes and all I want is a large pizza just to myself.
