Widget you are wrong!


My widget says that I have 1 day left...wrong--I am one day LATE! I've never been pregnant for this long and I don't think I like it. At least some people tell me I don't look "that ready" for whatever that means. My doctor said, "Oh, I know why you haven't had the baby yet, it's because you haven't even reached the minimum weight gain." I guess that's okay, but it still doesn't help my hugeness. I think I've tried all the things I can (minus the cohosh and castor oil--sorry, I can't do it!) Soooo, I really hope things happen soon. I almost started to think she doesn't WANT to come out... for heaven's sake, she doesn't have a name AND she has two big brothers who will drown her with kisses and "love". Here's to a baby this week!!!

I am disappointed to hear that the eggplant didn't work. I was hoping to be able to use that one myself. Well, it really can't be that much longer, can it? When will they induce you? My doctor told me that they don't induce here until 42 weeks- even if you are measuring 3 weeks ahead like I am and already had one 9 lb baby like GRacie- I can't imagine!!

Hang in there Girlfriend.. I know those feelings of anxiety, and uncertainty. When is she coming, you say? I have a feeling it will be on Friday morning April 4th, unless you are induced earlier. I'm telling you our sweet little girls made a plan together. Kaedyn was due Sunday, January 20th and she came Friday January 25th, at 9:15am We Love You, keep us posted

Darn it baby girl! Come out! :) I hope, for your sake, it happens soon! But I am WAY jealous about the weight gain. Unfortunately, my doctor says the opposite. :) What's your trick? Did you gain more or less with your boys? Not that I'm dwelling on my weight, but my doctor doesn't seem to let me forget about it. :) You don't even have a list of names?? Good luck with everything!!!

You are so cute! It was so good to see you. I thought for sure you would go that night. She will come when you least expect it.

Well, look of it as a good thing. Addison just didn't want to come either. She as 2 days late, and that was WAY TOO LONG!!! And then it took her 28 hours to come! But she was the best baby, and loved to be cuddled and comforted, and still does. So maybe she'll be like addison and will be a mommy's girl. You have just made her so comfortable and warm that she isn't ready to leave! Good luck. I have also heard that if you drink lots of red respberry leaf tea from the healthfood store that it puts you into labor. I tried it an it didn't work, but you may give it a shot.

It was so good to hear from you, I had to find your blog. I've been there girl! I was three days late with David (also my third). The night before I went on a really long walk and pushed my self hard. I had meaning less contractions all night. The next morning I went to the hospital, told them this was my third baby, I was three days late, and I that I wasn't leaving until my baby was here. Tada it worked! Good luck-I love her room. You did a great job!

You're just going to have to give her a name then. LOL

And be sure to post it on your blog so she knows you mean business. *wink*

I bet you'll go into labor tonight. (I hope I'm right because that would be all the more disappointing if I'm not). My fingers are crossed for you!

Good luck! I don't know what to tell you. If you won't try the castor oil by now I am no more help!! I know you don't want to have her tomorrow, but you just might have to give her a name and deal with an april fool's baby!
