    @MapleMoose: Unfortunately I don't know if I would count any of my "stuff" as progress since dilation and mucus plug don't mean a whole lot haha. I am glad though that I'm not the only one here who is still pregnant! @MrsClownfish: At least there are a few of us left who are still holding these kiddos in.

    @MapleMoose: Right now dealing with the immense swelling and blistering is far worse than the tiny bit of pain left from my c-section. I think I would've felt pretty back to normal today if it weren't for that. Thanks for asking.

    Well, we decided to set a date to be induced. It was a tough decision and I am still hoping the little man decides to come naturally but if he doesn't we will be induced on the evening of the 23rd.

    @Meltini: I hope you're glad to have that decision out of the way. Hopefully your little guy won't keep you waiting that long.

    @marionberry: An infection on top of caring for a newborn? I'm so sorry! I hope they get to the root of it and you can get back to healing.

    @Meltini: goodluck with your induction. I needed up having contraction when I went into my induction and after two gels they let me labor completely naturally without even breaking my waters so you never know!!

    @marionberry: I'm sorry you are in pain it sucks... I have a 2nd degree tear and my stitches suuuuuck. Ouchies.

    After a 3rd session of acupuncture I went into labor!
    I had acupuncture at 9:30 am, list my MP at about 2:00pm was in labor at 3:30 at the hospital at 8pm and after 5 1/2 minutes (!) of pushing our sweet baby John Amos arrived at 4:07am on 9/19. He is a big guy 9lbs 11oz, 22 inches. We are of course so in love and his sister (at least for now) is smitten as well

    Ahhhh I'm so behind! Between navigating this whole new world of parenthood and spotty wi-fi, I have barely been able to catch up! We are doing well (although my body feels like it's been hot by a truck, and my episiotomy stitches are giving me hell) and H is absolutely the love of my life

    Congratulations to @jetsa: @illumina: @mrssquirelld: and @joanlindsay: !!! Your LOs are absolutely gorgeous!!!

    I can't wait to go back and read birth stories! I am going to write mine before I forget any of it! Can't believe it's already been four days...

    I'm going to update the stats because we were somehow left off:

    I added in my little one. AFM, they took the steri-strips off of my c-section incision because they think it's what's causing the horrible allergic reaction, but so far still have all of the c-section pain plus the oozing blisters all over my belly.

    Oh, you know, just having a small pity party for myself on my "due date" with a quarter of a pint of Cherry Garcia. You know, as one does. If only sheer will sent you into labor.

  18. marionberry

    pomelo / 5041 posts

    @LittleGBee: I'm so sorry! That has to be hard but I totally agree with indulging in ice cream. Given my cervix was closed the day before my c-section I would probably still be pregnant too if he wasn't breech.

  19. marionberry

    pomelo / 5041 posts

    @Mrs squirreld: How did we all end up with hairy babies?! I've heard tears are really rough to deal with. Are you taking any meds?

  20. MrsClownfish

    cherry / 199 posts

    @LittleGBee: I'm right there with you. Just had a little cry fest that the baby isn't making moves. I'm due on Monday. As of right now I'm just about 2cm and 50% effaced.

  21. jetsa

    grapefruit / 4663 posts

    @Mrs squirreld: I was 6 hours total as well. Just 4 hours active labor and it was only 4 hours on oxytocin.

    @marionberry: @Mrs squirreld: right?!?! So many hairy boys! I have a 2nd degree tear as well and it was great until today. I'm guessing the swelling is going down because I've been having some pain again. Truthfully I expected it to be horrible and it's better than expected.

  22. LittleGBee

    apricot / 319 posts

    @MrsClownfish: I KNOW that the cervical checks really show no sort of indication of labor or whatever, but perhaps you can feel a little better knowing that I'm not even that yet? Apparently I just grow babies big, I grow babies late, and I grow babies that don't drop.

    I see hill walking in my future tomorrow, lots and lots of hills.

  23. LittleGBee

    apricot / 319 posts

    @jetsa: @Mrs squirreld: (and anyone else with tears): Sorry ladies! I had a 2.5 degree tear with my first and it's NOT comfortable. The nurse showed us how to stuff newborn diapers with ice and my mom stocked the freezer with them. It was the only thing that really helped. Well, that, and keeping up with the extra strength tylenol.

    pomelo / 5469 posts

    @marionberry: I was pretty surprised that S had hair! I don't think Dh or I had much at all at birth. Hers is fair like me so it doesn't look like a huge covering, but it's long at the back!

    @jetsa: @Mrs squirreld: I hope you both have a speedy recovery I can't imagine how you must feel but I know I am super scared of having a poop and my tearing was minimal.

  25. MrsStormy

    Well ladies I wanted to update yesterday but didn't get a chance. baby girl Finley Grace was born yesterday 9/20/13. We are totally in love. Labor was fast and furious, but I'll give all the details and a photo when i'm not on my phone.

    I think I just lost part of my mucus plug but not sure.... Was two thick stringy globs that were white/ yellowish

    Is that what it looks like?

  33. marionberry

    pomelo / 5041 posts

    @MrsClownfish: I didn't lose mine but that sounds like what others have mentioned.

  34. Meltini

    apricot / 495 posts

    I know I have my induction scheduled for Monday evening but I'm feeling pretty down about the fact that I haven't gone naturally yet. I haven't even noticed losing my mucus plug. Even though I have an end date, I currently feel like I am going to be pregnant forever. Ugh. Come on little man, make your move!!

  35. illumina

    pomelo / 5469 posts

    @MrsStormy: congrats mama! Looking forward to another update!

    @MrsClownfish: I think mine was 2 blobs about the size of quarters of brown goo which came out in the shower once I was already in labour. If that wasn't it and was just part of the bloody show, then I guess I never saw the plug! Yours sounds like what I've heard from others though!

  36. illumina

    pomelo / 5469 posts

    @Meltini: aww bless you. He is going to be here so soon though! I had the same thoughts as my due date approached and others started having babies in the group. What I should have done was concentrate on resting and enjoying doing a few "me" things before she arrived. Hope you can take some time to do something fun with your Dh

  37. MrsClownfish

    cherry / 199 posts

    @Meltini: aww don't be sad (but I totally understand) at least you know you definitely get to meet your baby tomorrow which is awesome!

  38. MrsClownfish

    cherry / 199 posts

    @MapleMoose @littlegbee: after tomorrow I think it is pretty much just us left (as far as people that are active on the board).
    Le sigh

    It is my one year anniversary today so at least if I don't go into labor we have dinner reservations at Morton's....yum

  39. marionberry

    pomelo / 5041 posts

    @MrsClownfish: Mmmm I love Morton's! What a great meal to have before baby.

    @meltini: I agree with illumina. Try to enjoy the "you" time before baby gets here. I really miss sleep! Your baby will be here so soon!

  40. MapleMoose

    grapefruit / 4213 posts

    @MrsClownfish: @littlegbee: I'm getting so impatient!!

    @MrsClownfish: I just celebrated my first anniversary at the beginning of the month. Small world! Congrats!
