@sorrycharlie: Was just reading my Oct 2012 posts and I lost my mucus plug evening of Oct 18th, had her the morning of the 20th!!
DH and I are going to dinner the same place we went (and I will be ordering the same thing, turkey dinner!) tonight! We went on the Thursday night, had her on that Saturday, so foolish us trying to get things going!

@Beebug: eeeek! well s/he has to come out at some point, right?

@whodat: Aw, hoping labor comes soon for you!
@Beebug: That is so annoying about the dr/residents at your practice. Like you want to meet someone new at this point. Awesome about your knee unlocking even though it took a scary fall to make it happen.
Today was my due date! Crazy how I waited for this day for so long and now here I am with two 12 day olds. Here are a couple recent pics:
Blake's little gas smile
Sleepy Alice

@twodoghouse: awww Blake's smile is the cutest! And Alice looks so peaceful. do you tandem nurse?
honeydew / 7230 posts
@Glitter: Right now we're not tandem nursing because they don't have good enough head control. It takes me two hands to support a head and my breast (I swear my boobs are bigger than Blake's head) so I do them one at a time!

Gahhhhhh I spent like 30 min typing out a post here and Hb ate it I hate Hb- ing on my phone. Can't take time to type again but I am thinking of you all!!
And of course gratuitous baby pics. (Excuse the fact that she is a bit jaundiced! Still gorgeous even if she's a bit of a pumpkin at the moment haha)

Well my contractions turned painful and quickly got closer together so here I am in L&D! 4cm and getting fluids for my epidural. Forgot how much this hurts.

Hi everyone! Little Miss Margaret and I are just checking in! She's doing great so far! We're feeding with a shield right now as lactation thinks she has a bit if a tongue tie. She's doing a good job with it though and is able to latch for long stretches. They're having me pump in between which is quite the experience! Recovery is going okay, my incision is a bit more tender since the bandage and packing were removed last night but it's definitely manageable. I've attached a couple more pics of our new family!

@caity713: you look amazing! As does little miss Margaret! I feel you on the pumping too... I've only been at it 8 sessions and already I feel like a bit of a cow haha

@Mae: boo about eaten post, I hate that! Loveeee the pics!
@whodat: eeeee! Good luck!
@caity713: love the pics! And great to hear your little miss M is doing well!
No news over here, lost lots of mucus yesterday, some dull, but solid cramping all day and into the early evening, but just got a great nights sleep, getting some good morning movement and that's about it!
Long weekend here this weekend, I wish the cottage was closer! Also one of my fave dog show weekends the same distance as the cottage, but opposite direction, oh so tempting, I'm mostly kidding!
DH and I went to dinner last night where I went into labour with DD, ordered my turkey dinner, but aside from it being fun to go out, nothing came of that either! Aw well, yummy food!

Contractions ladies, they woke me an hour ago, timed the last 5, avg just over 1 min, avg 5:23 apart. Long and strong, but still really spaced! We will see if it keeps up, try to let DH sleep as long as possible, but I'm so excited and hope they keep up! 40+5, let's do this!
honeydew / 7230 posts
@Beebug: Yay!!! Good luck lady! Hope you'll be meeting your little one soon!

@caity713: @whodat: Congrats to you both! Go babies!
@Beebug: Yeehaw for you! Hope it's ramping up and your little team greener ( ) comes soon! I'm still waiting on mine... Going to the beach today to soak up some wave-making energy, hoping maybe my body picks up on the pattern and tries to copy?
Been losing mucous plug and feeling more uncomfortable the last few days, some irregular semi-uncomfortable nighttime contractions, but always less by morning... 41 weeks tomorrow! Must be getting close! Induction appointment Monday night but might postpone depending how I feel that morning. What a trip!

@whodat : yayyy congrats!!! Can't wait for pics
@Beebug: hope everything is going well and that this is the real deal for you! I must admit that I'm slightly jealous whenever someone else goes into labour hahaha! Can't wait for an update!

Hi ladies, quick check in, can't reply to everyone, got to hospital 9am or so. I was walked right into a room and admitted right away!
It's been a roller coaster day, but it is baby day, update hopefully soon!
papaya / 10343 posts
@Beebug: yay so excited for you!!
@whodat: congrats!!
Also-- if anyone on this thread (maybe someone not due for a little while?) would be willing to take over or at least do the next round of updates that would be awesome. I prob won't get to it for a long while. I can email the calendar to whoever if they want it?

Colin Michael! Born 4:29pm, 22", 8lbs 13oz!
All good, better update later, what a day!
apricot / 309 posts
@Beebug: congratulations! Love the name. Was DH surprised?
@Mae: I would offer because I feel like I will be awhile but I can only get on hb on my phone so I'm not sure I can do it from a phone.
persimmon / 1281 posts
@Beebug: congrats!!! You look like labor was a breeze! Can't wait to hear DH's reaction
