Oh wow so maybe the c-section will be pushed up??? My doc is not on call this weekend so my husband has told our soon to be born son to stay put until Monday. I don't think we will have any problems with that I don't have any labor signs. I have a little pressure and some cramping and BH contractions here and there but nothing too much. Well let me know how your appt goes tomorrow.

I have that same feeling!! It's the same feeling, too, that I got when I just knew that I was having a girl, before they even confirmed it!! I keep telling my husband she'll be here by Sunday, if not before. Just everything I've been feeling. Like you - the loads of pressure, and I've been having contractions on and off all day today. I've gotta pick my hubby up from work in an hour, and I'm gonna walk around walmart beforehand, to see if I can get anything to happen!

Good luck at your appt tomorrow. Keep me updated! Especially if you go into labor!

bdubb - 41.9 hours ago
Oh man that is strange a virus? Are you feeling any better?

pinkb00h - 43.3 hours ago
My hubby does the same exact thing.

How come you don't think you'll make it to your c-section??

I'm doing alright. Went to the dr today and was checked cuz I said I was feeling a lot of pressure. She said she could "definitely feel the baby's head, but can't get around to feel how dialated I am" so I have no idea if I am or not. I probably am if she can feel the baby's head so well, but her head is probably pushing on my cervix in a way that it distorts it or something.

I've been having contractions on and off all day today, too. So hopefully something will happen toniight!

thanks you too! I just wish that they could switch spots with us for 1 day just to experience the hormones and everything else, maybe then he would understand! Lets face it though, no man could handle it, am i right or am i right ;)

Thank you! and I will, my husband is also taking great care of me..
Good luck with the arrival of your little one,
: )

Doesn't it just grate on your nerves that hubby comes home, sees you sitting on the couch, and jumps down your throat cuz the stupid dishes aren't done?? My husband has done that a few times, and it just makes me so mad, and usually I cry when he does so. Men don't understand what it feels like to be 9 and 1/2 months pregnant!! They don't understand that most of us WILL feel tired! I mean.. we're carrying around an extra 40 lbs (i am at least.. lol), and that creating a child inside your own body TAKES ENERGY FROM YOU!

My mom just drives me crazy.. I've tried to calmly explain to her that I only want my husband in there with me... I can't calmly do it anymore. She brings up such stupid stuff, and brings up lies from the past. (ie: she claims that when my sister and I were baptized forever ago, that she was never invited. It's a bunch of BS. My dad AND the pastor called her several times to let her know, and she ignored it. And then yea, my husband and I eloped 8 months before our wedding ceremony, and didn't invite her. But my dad was there. Why didn't we invite her? She would have caused a big scene, and tried raising hell, to stop us.)

My plan is that nobody is gonna know that I'm even IN labor, until a few hours after my daughter is actually born! That way, it'll give me and my hubby time to bond with her, get the hang of it, and I'll have time to start breast feeding. I don't need a room full of people!

But thanks for letting me know I'm not alone.. It's actually very comforting to know that I'm not the only one wanting to rip my hair out!

And thanks for the compliment on the belly slide show.. It was fun making it! The only bad part.. when I want to add a new week pic, I have to go to photobucket, add the new picture, then come here and delete this one and get the html code for the new one, and add it!

that is pretty much the time schedule that they gave me. Mike and I think we won't get a wink of sleep the night before. it is so crazy how fast it all happens. Get to the hospital by 6 and have a baby by 9. That is funny that your mom wants to be there at 6 how sweet.

I am having some stronger contractions today but they are totally managable. We have a great weekend planned so we are hoping everything goes on schedule.

Hey there! So has baby moved head down yet? Or still breach? Mine seems to be staying head down but he won't engage. He seems to be going up and down. It's wierd. Well only a week or so left. Getting nervous? I am!

bdubb - Tuesday, 13 May
I know it is crazy only 9 more days for me and 10 for you. It does seem kind of surreal. I like the new photos. I did the green walls as well and really like it. It is so calming. Is the bedding Pottery Barn. I think I saw it there. I am getting used to the idea of a csection. The thing I am going to miss getting to see how Mike would react to me in labor but there are pros and cons and at the end of the day I would so much rather have a scheduled csection than labor followed by an emergency csection. I am working on coming up with a song. It sounds stupid but instead of just laying there I want to sing a song it goes by so fast I thinnk it will help me not be scared. I am still thinking of what song to sing..btw I am a horrible singer. So how are you feeling. Any signs of labor? Bradyen is so high up. I had some BH this weekend but nothing today. I don't think I will have any problem making it until May 20th.

bdubb - Tuesday, 13 May

Great family photo!

awww!! cute pic!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh that is funny 1 day apart - so the baby is still breech? My guy is still blocked by the fibroid. At least they kept trying to see either of us would change up until the very end. I am feeling a lot better today but am really taking it easy. I had a horrible day yesterday and don't want to get like that again. At the u/s today the baby was 7 lbs 5 oz so still a pretty good size. How are you feeling?

posie - Tuesday, 29 April
I did the frozen veggies on top and music below but I don't know if that's what caused him to turn. I just remember one day having ALOT of uncomfortable movement from baby and I guess he just decided to move. Try not to worry too much (how can you not, right?!) you still have time. Sometimes they turn right at the last minute I've heard. Take Care and i'm sending your baby "MOVE" vibes!!! :)

bdubb - Sunday, 27 April
uggh the evc doesn't sound fun. I don't think I would want to try that either. When do you go back for the final us to see if the baby has moved? Well I wanted to lay low this weekend but I ended up going shopping to do some exchanges and ended up being out most of the day and then came home and washed and organized. Our washer has a Baby mode - it take 2 hrs for each load! It is taking me forever. I have three more loads today (so thats a good 6 hrs). I got a little bigger this week and am a little more uncomfortable for sure. It is getting a little bit harder to get around...I knew it would be eventually. Hope you had a good weekend.

bdubb - Friday, 25 April
Well it looks like we will be in the same boat with the need for a c-section. It will be nice to have some one to talk about it with. Exactly like you there is a small chance I might not need one but it looks like I should start prepping for it. I found two books on amazon for like $2-5 bucks that I might order and a work out video for csection recovery. Have a good weekend.

bdubb - Friday, 25 April
Well the massage class was great tonight. They actualy say there are some exercises you can do to get a breech baby to move and they mentioned accupunture. What is ECR? The doc appt when good today he still thinks a csection will be necessary so has booked it with the hospital for the 20th. I go back for one more ultrasound in two weeks and if the baby has moved passed the fibrod then we will just cancel the csection. The doc really thinks we will still need a csection though. I am glad that they are at least continuing to look at the options. I guess we will both know in a 2 weeks or so if we will be csection gals. At least we can talk about recovery together. what are you up to this weekend?

bdubb - Wednesday, 23 April
Looking forward to seeing the pics of the nursery. Are you all done with it? Did you try the acupuncture? Has the doc tried to moved the baby. I just had a co-workers sister that had a baby that turned at 37 wks. Let me know how the ultrasounds goes. I am playing a waiting game as well and as of right now have to have a csection but go back in 2 weeks to see if I have a chance of regular delivery. I go to the doc on Thurs and then we have pregnancy massage class - jackpot. The instructions said to bring massage oil and a pillow...can't wait for that. Hope all is well.

jenlove - Monday, 21 April

We could never be sick of looking at your puppy! But good to see you ~ you look great! Hope you're feeling good!

bdubb - Monday, 21 April
The dog is very cute but I am glad you posted a pic. How many weeks were you in the photo? How's everything going? Been feeling good??

Hope all is well.

Hi, bubs turned two days before the next doctors app. took about a week. Yep i knew when bubs had turned cos i could feel the feet/kicks up by my ribs! don't worry too much i'm sure bubs will turn for you... they like to keep us guessing! i'm 4 days overdue now and time is standing still... although i'm not too keen on being induced (even though i can't wait to meet our little one)... would rather let nature take its course. will keep you posted. love the dog pic, we have a black lab, who has been very protective of me since i got pregnant :)

mummyvicki - Thursday, 17 April
ill let you know what ever happens along the way, its all very new and interesting to me as i dont know anyone else who has a stubborn little baby like mine lol. i know so many people who are pregnant around here and im the only breech pregnancy. lol. good luck with everything xxx

mummyvicki - Thursday, 17 April
Hey hun, im 37 weeks on monday and my baby is breech and face presentation,.. i have an appointment for another scan and to talk to a consultant on tuesday if the baby doesnt turn and you want them to try and move him/her. well what they do here is give you a drug to relax you and then try and manovoure the baby into the correct position, if it doesnt work they say they will most likely schedule me in for a c section, trust me to have an akward baby lol... anyways best thing to do is just stay relaxed and do what ever is best for you and the baby, im happy enough to go with the flow, whatever will be will be. hope your feeling well xxx
