How I feel waking up on my due date, not in labor, the most pregnant I’ve ever been. All the sympathies. It's so strange just walking around feeling like a ticking time bomb too. Everytime MH (and probably everyone else too) sees me he looks at me like, are you going to go into labor now?

Today was my due date by LMP, then it was adjusted to next Wednesday. I'm thinking Monday would be a good day...

Morning.
Eslept decent last night. 4.5 hour stretch, 3 hour and then a 2.5 hour with a small break in the last stretch and I pulled her into bed with me. I’ve noticed she pretty much always wakes at 5:30 and then does a Small last little stretch.
Everyone always says “take baby everywhere when they are little, they are so portable”. Apparently my babies didn’t get that memo. They have both hated their car seats and then E wants to be held if awake and only sometimes tolerates being worn. So I feel like I’m on house arrest.

robot I went overdue last time & only responded with the anchorman “baby watch the mood is tense” meme for the last week. Even for follow up ‘haha but really is anything happening’ texts. I avoided telling people the actual EDD as much as possible this time.

I avoided telling people the actual EDD as much as possible this time. This, I did the same thing. Then when I sent my birth announcement at work, some colleagues replied by, omg you were still in the lab last week, I had no idea you were so close to the end 😂

Guys... I'm freaking out. I feel like there's still so much to do!

So I had my OB appointment. Saturday I am 38 weeks. Next week will discuss delivery, etc. I am so swollen and snoring all the time. My OB said to cut out salt. So I am trying but salt is in everything.

Well, had my MW visit this morning. I scheduled for next week and if I get to there they will do a NST and talk about a 42w induction. Other than that, they listened to the hb and sent me on my way. After I waited an hour because apparently this morning was the day they implemented a new office wide computer system and they had all the reps from the company there and it was insanity. I was so annoyed. If I had just had my baby already I wouldn’t have had to be there!

robot, I was induced for my DD at 41 weeks 6 days. The absolute latest day possible. It sucked and you have my sympathies. DD arrived with talon like fingernails. I think she was in there a tad too long

DD, my MIL, and I went on a walk and I’ve been a little crampy ever since. Probably means nothing but here’s hoping.

I went to the store earlier to pick up my meds (which the pharmacists apparently don't dispense often) and while I was there I picked up diapers, nursing pads, and my gigantic pads. When I came home I started packing up the hospital bag and found the rest of the stuff that needed to be washed to go in it. I also made an appointment to get my whooping cough vaccine (apparently you need it when you're pregnant even if it's been given previously), a pedicure appointment, and an appointment for a haircut. I'm feeling better now that I have that done, and my best friend is coming on Tuesday to help me organize what I have here and figure out what else I need. I'm sure in a little bit I'll start freaking out again, but for now I'm feeling calm.
