What's the little girl name so that I may call her name unto the LORD.


maybaby:) - Tuesday, 22 April
hey!!! awe!! I love your new pictures! You look awesome! Its all baby! Havent gained anything anywhere else---good for you! I, on the other hand, look completely bloated and "chubby" b/c the weights been evenly distributed :(!!!!
I have a feeling your big day is only 1 or 2 days away...I'm so excited for you! Cant wait to see a picture of baby Hunter:)
Hope youre feeling well. Im doing ok...just still not sleeping well ---like at all!! and im still working full time. Im just up having a little snack right now so I thought it was about time i came on here and wrote to some people!
Hope to talk to u soon,
take care :)


vickersbaby - Tuesday, 22 April
yea, i happen to be one of the ones to dialate at the time of labor i gave birth to my baby on 4-18-08!!!!! he happen to be early when everyone said he'd be late!!! so hey you could be a lucky one too . .GOOD LUCK HANG IN THERE


sarahnicely - Monday, 21 April
I have alot of clothes for Madalyn...but only four things fit her :( BUT she is growing like a weed...tomorrow is two weeks. (So sad how time flies) I think I'll be taking all of her 3-6 months summer clothes back and exchanging them for winter clothes. I live in WY and the weather SUCKS! So by the time she is big enough to fit in that size she'll need the warmer stuff. Good thing I left all the tags on!!!

Work is time consuming, thats about it though...I SO wanna be at home with her, sometimes I stress because I feel like I'm feeding her to much or playing with her too much and my boss will make me chose wether to work or have a baby. :( So far its all in my head because no one has said anything to me. I'm just paranoid! She is a really really good baby, she hardly cries at all...so that is a good thing.

So your a week away from BABY TIME!!!!!!! Are you nervous? Excited? I'm both for you...hee hee! One good thing for me to tell you though, other than being tired I'm all healed up and feeling better! So it doesn't take to long to get back on your feet afterwards :)


sherryh - Monday, 21 April
how are u? I go back to the doctor thursday and if I'm dialated any she's gonna scrap my membranes and she said then I should go into labor within 24-72 hrs. I hope so I feeel I can't take it anymore. My poor feet, ankles and legs are ssssooo swollen. Let me know how your doing,


aine - Monday, 21 April
hey they should do but it might take a bit longer ....try the resberry leaf tablets and evening primrose tablets ....not sure if they work but i wasnt favourable for induction and now i am ... im thanking them ...good luck


springbaby - Monday, 21 April
Well I guess It didn't matter that I was'nt having any symptoms, my water broke, I had my baby girl! I'll update later.


courtney - Monday, 21 April
Hey... In answer to your question 3 things have to happen before you can give birth vaginally... your baby has to drop into position, your cervix has to be 100& effaced.. and then you have to dilate to 10. In order for your doctor to induce you have to be 100% effaced, i was at 50% effacement last week, and my doctor cannot induce until 100... the drug they use to induce doesn't cause effacement, it causes dialation..
effacement is basically your cervix thinning, softening, and shortening in preparation to be dilated.
(I took a class) Hope that helps... wish me luck im off to see if ill be induced today or not!
blessings to you!!


sarahnicely - Monday, 21 April
 holy moly that girl has got clothes! My goodness you've been a busy girl!


chaseversion - Monday, 21 April
yes u will have to be induce , ur dr might let go to 41wks to see if u can go on ur own but other than that u will have to be induce, it gets dangeous to hold a baby @ 42W , fl level decreases ,baby can pass its bm inside etc.


mandyy - Monday, 21 April
Hey! Yeah I think thats what it is. Mine seem to have stopped though. Whenever I think somethings happening and maybe labor is starting it stops. LOL. Oh well...I'll find out on Tuesday if they helped me dialate some more! Hopefully something will happen soon! =)


MomKatt007 - Sunday, 20 April
Thanks a Bunch! I hope you have a smooth and safe delivery! Any day now!!


chula735 - Sunday, 20 April
how you feeling..


momofboys - Sunday, 20 April
Unfortunatly it was NOTHING! I guess it was a urine leak. The nurse was a hag & I am glad I did not deliver with her!


ladyintexas - Saturday, 19 April
Thanks!pix are on the page now!


rosangela - Saturday, 19 April
hahaha, your praying she comes out but I, on the other hand, am praying she stays in at least until after the 28th or even my due date so I can take finals!! I went through the whole semester and it'd really irk me if I missed them considering my professer is even allowing me to take them earlier!!


njstewy - Friday, 18 April
yeah. .i've been kinda iffy about calling the doc. .but I was just there yesterday so I think that I'm gonna be ok


rosangela - Friday, 18 April
I know exactly how you feel. I'm in your shoes. Not effaced, no dilation, no dropping...no signs of ANYTHING!! I'm tired of being pregnant thal all I'll do is complain about being pregnant!

Best of luck to you! Let me know how everything turns out next week!


melbell - Thursday, 17 April
Thank You! :-)


mom3boys2out1in - Thursday, 17 April
lol the wost part is i dont know, sigh, i didn't have contractions or b/h untill i was in the hospital and even then i didn't feel them untill after my water was broken (induced with both boys) so now if my stomach tightens or does ne thing i keep wondering if its normal. i really hope its a contraction or something but it doesn't feel like the contractions i had in labor that i felt, they feel more like a tightening, that roll's down your stomach sorta like a rolling pin i dont know if that makes sense or not, but back contractions feel like you get a back spasam in your lower back that holds and then slowly goes away so who knows i hope some of that helps its not much lol but its all i really know from my other 2
