I'm late, but here. Wanted to wait until after my appointment yesterday to update. I'm 36+3 and doing pretty good. Heartburn has been awful the past couple of days. Had my BPP+growth scan on Friday and baby is measuring in the 60th percentile and is estimated at 6lb 4oz. Had my NST yesterday and also the GBS test and OB checked my cervix. No activity down there which I completely expected.
RCS is scheduled for the 23rd and I'm counting down the days! Last day of work is the 18th so just trying to be as productive as possible before then so everything is organized for my boss who will be covering for me while I'm on leave.

@easilyunamused, Hopefully baby comes soon! king26, I hope you are feeling better. ketchup, enjoy your sprinkle! cali, I am sorry you are having pain and not feeling motivated. I hope things get a little better soon. codex320, I am jealous about the house. We looked into buying property out where we are but the permit costs alone would have put us way over what we would be spending on a old home. We just couldn't afford it at this point in our lives. That is awesome for you! longhornwino, Yay so exciting!! muscari, I am sorry you are having mixed emotions with wanting baby out, or to stay. Good luck getting the last bits of things done. mrsrodgers the 23rd will be here quick! Sorry I am late to this. Things are still going good. I am 8w 5d still feeling nauseous but way better than before. I am starting to feel like eating things and small frequent meals help and lots and lots of water. That has been keeping the headaches away. Next appointment is Monday. We leave for Vegas Wednesday to celebrate our anniversary. I am really looking forward to it. My company has a branch there so we plan to stop and say hi. Other than that I just want to lay by the pool and drink virgin cocktails and eat really yummy food. "Please nausea be gone completely by then"! |

@easilyunamused, thinking of you! Hope baby makes an appearance today!! Thanks codex320! XP from pregnancy Apparently I was not dilated at a 2 like my OB said. 😒 I think maybe she was trying to appease me? Anywho I have the cervidal? Inserted into my cervix to soften it and the nurse said it'll take 12 hours. They won't even check me again until then, so I'm hanging out until tonight. It sucks because I have the fetal monitor strapped to my stomach, a super itchy IV and they won't let me eat. Lol but I have to focus on the end game! I'm on hour 9 though and feeling contractions, so I'm hoping it working. I think after they check me, if it's dilated more they'll start me on pitocin. |

@easilyunamused, ugh! That sucks! I can't believe they won't let you eat when they won't even check your cervix for 12 hours! That's crazy.

But I was still only 1cm and 50% effaced so they use this drug first to soften the cervix. Then they'll check and go from there. The nurse snuck me a sandwich. I'm forever grateful to her. |

So glad you got to eat something!! Hopefully you are able to rest overnight and will be ready to go in the morning! I can't wait to hear more. Thinking of you! |

I guess you're thinking of the most important part. The food. I'm waiting for the Dr to come in an check me again. If he doesn't think I'm progressing enough, he'll skip the pitocin and go straight to a c section. So I'm hoping I'm more dilated. |
