Re: Check In!! Mommies' due 20th-31st (and Julie!!)
I'm still here, but finding it hard to get the time to post. I usually only have 5 or 10 minutes here and there. Today we had an appointment with the breastfeeding clinic (I had a bit of trouble with getting her to latch on properly this weekend and now things are just great!), we went to see "daddy" for lunch and then we went shopping for girly things . Tomorrow we have our first checkup with Dr. Carson and we are going to take Emily to my school so that my coworkers can get a chance to see her. Public health nurse comes to visit later this week, and my mom (Grammy) and brother (Uncle Mike) are coming from New Brunswick this weekend to visit and help out for a week. I can't wait! I haven't seen them since Shawn and I got married this summer!!!!
Guess that's the news for now. I will try to post my birth story tomorrow morning when Emily is sleeping.

i am still here.... noticing it keeps getting quieter and quieter, and quieter on this board... LOL dont leave me!!
Appt. this morning wasnt too promising since I hadnt progressed from my previous weeks 1 centimeter although I am 50% effaced (midwife trying to make me feel good? :) ) and babies head not engaged yet. Today I planted a garden of tomatoes and zucchinni and peppers and tonight I am having LOTS of bh contractions... wowow. Hopefully they will eventually do something :) Until then, I am going to go enjoy another nights sleep (something that will not be happening for much longer!)
Re: Check In!! Mommies' due 20th-31st (and Julie!!)
Was due March 19th but still here. May be here with the end of the month due dates as they won't consider inducing me until 2 weeks after my due date. Had my second NST and everything was fine. Scheduled for an U/S and another NST for thursady if the baby doesn't arrive. Labor vibes to all.
Re: Check In!! Mommies' due 20th-31st (and Julie!!)
I'm still here also six days over due, for the last two nights I have had contractions but nothing has happened with them. Early Monday from 1:30-3:30 they were 8-10 min apart, again last night and this morning from 11:30-2:30 they were 6-8 min apart and a little stonger but nothing now.
I have a Drp apt at 11:00am, and with any luck she will induce and get this show on the road!!!!

Now - hopefully today
Re: Check In!! Mommies' due 20th-31st (and Julie!!)
Still here...still hopeful.
I have a NST today at 3:00 p.m., a scheduled drs. appt. next Monday and an induction set for the 2nd of April if this little one doesn't make her appearance soon.
As far as I know, I'm still 1 cm/60%. Not having any other "fun things" happening either, like losing the MP or cx. Sigh. But, hey--it WILL happen. She can't stay in there forever. I think she just wants to be born on April 1st (to humble her mom). The one cool thing about that would be that our birthdays would begin and end the month. But I would hate for her to be born on April Fool's Day. No one would believe me that I was in labor!

As the deer panteth for the water,
So my soul longeth after Thee.
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship Thee.
You alone are my strength, my shield,
To You alone may my spirit yield.
You alone are my heart’s desire,
And I long to worship Thee.

I am still here. I had a dr appt. today and am still about the same. Which is 3cm and 80% effaced. I have been this way for 3 weeks. I am due on Thursday. We have scheduled an induction for Friday!!!!!!!
YAY!! HAppy Birthday to me. That is the best present ever.

I'm back after having Nolan on the 20th. We are getting some kind of schedule if you want to call it that. Since I'm feeling better i'm really enjoying him.
It's a boy
I was due March 21. Regular contractions started about 11pm on the 21st. I labored at home until 3:30 the next day. The baby was born totally naturally 4 hours later at the hospital. He's doing great and DH and I are glad to be at home with him now. Will post a birth story when I'm feeling better!
Re: Check In!! Mommies' due 20th-31st (and Julie!!)
I'm still here too. I'm due on Saturday. The doctor said last Friday she didn't think it would happen this week. I'm 1 centimeter and 50% effaced. Hopefully on Friday (next appt) I'll be a little closer. If she hasn't come by the following Friday (4/4) they'll induce! Amy

I'm still here!
I'm due today (March 26) and am still here. I have an appointment on Monday and they will induce next Wednesday (April 2) if he doesn't come before! Hope everyone is well. Good luck.
Re: I'm still here!
I am still here. I am due tomorrow, but spent last night in the hospital due to my blood pressure and am now on bed rest. I was supposed to be induced on April 1st when my doctor is back in town. But they are inducing me a day early so I should still give birth in March. The doctor who is covering for mine thought that I was 32 weeks not 39 and 6 days. I think that is why she moved me up a bit. Good luck to those who are still here and congrats to all to have had their babies.

EDD March 28th, a girl.
BTW, I signed up for a global account so they changed my sign in name.
Still here and that's OK (for now)
Yesterday we went to the closing for our new house, which was the last thing on "the list" - felt weird Wednesday night and thought that Little What's-Her-Name was going to arrive at the absolutely least convenient time! But apparently it was just from being out shopping with my mom (who's been here almost a week already). Due date is Monday, so I'm trying not to get crabby until then, but I'm ready. I think
Actually I think a birthday of 03-30-03 would be really nifty...
Good luck to everyone!

Thomas is here
I was due March 26 and went into labor on March 28 at 4:06am. Was in labor for 12 1/2 hours (with epidural), pushed for 30 minutes, and had Thomas at 5:00pm. My husband got to deliver him. It was truly wonderful!
