Harri.son Da.mon born 5/9 at 2:31am. 7lb, 7oz at 38+3. My water broke and 8 hours later we had a baby! Much better than my first delivery.
We are both doing well hoping to go home late tomorrow!

Today is my due date! I got a membrane sweep yesterday, and TMI I think I am losing my mucous plug. I have had a few contractions here and there over the last few days.
The doctor I saw my previous 2 visits was happy for me to wait to go into labor naturally, but the doctor I saw yesterday started mentioning induction. Hopefully I go into labor on my own pretty soon, and can avoid an induction.

FX things get going for you soon!

I am pretty sure that stripping my membranes with my son pushed me into labor that night with him, so I was fully expecting to go into labor last night with this one. This one just seems more cozy. I still think it jump started a few things, so hopefully soon!

We will hopefully be released soon. Just waiting on Drs to see his latest results and hopefully let us go, we're so ready to go home.

Ugh, I got some sort of stomach virus and it is the worst. I was up most of the night, which probably isn’t helping how awful I feel, but I can’t really nap now, because I’m a mom and don’t get time off. The nurse line recommended taking some zofran so I’m hoping that helps. But here I am again wishing there was someone to take care of me instead of me needing to take care of my 3 year old (and get him to preschool this afternoon and go to my preadmission appt at the hospital...).

Help me think through this car seat situation.
We have an infant seat with two bases. Seat can also be installed without a base, using the seatbelt.
The original plan was that I would have one base in my car, and the nanny/home daycare would have the other base in her car. But, it looks like H will be doing pickups on Tues/Thurs (I would still do drop off those days). Do we a) keep with one base me, one base nanny, and have H use belt path installation when he picks up b) get another base (seems excessive, but maybe safer?) c) get a convertible car seat earlier than planned and put that in one of the cars? Or other ideas?
We have until August to figure this out, but of course my mind is racing with the options and I’d rather not put off a decision until the last minute.

mamabear02, I’m sorry you’re so sick! Hopefully you’ll be able to find some time to rest today.

bonzo, that’s a good question. I think I might wait and see how baby likes the infant seat first — some do better with convertible seats, but I think with that kind of regularity of your H picking him up, I would feel better with another base. The seatbelt installation works, and I used it when we needed to with DS but there’s a lot of room for mistakes and might be a pain for your H to install that way so often.

mamabear02, I’m sorry you’re so sick! Hopefully you’ll be able to find some time to rest today. Thank you! The zofran seems to be working, which is a huge relief. I am hoping my preadmit appt goes quickly and I might be able to sneak in a nap before picking DS back up.

What's a preadmit appt? bonzo I would definitely just get another base.

bonzo depending on price I'd likely go with another base also but I'd also wait and see how baby likes the infant seat. DD HATED hers and when we switched to the convertible it was magical. So you may find you want to invest in a convertible early if LO does not like the infant seat. I got talked in to getting another infant seat this time around (different brand) but we have a convertible already on hand in case this LO is like DD.
