I'm kind of hoping this last month goes by fast (BR)

I'm so over all of the back aches, BH contractions, constant need to pee and the feeling that my LO is clawing his way out.

That is all.

  • What is your due date again? Because if you only have a month left, you should totally have him on the 19th! Then we could share a birthday! :)

    The 19th is definitely a good day - my DD would completely agree.  Stick out tongue

    My due date is the 16th.  I think he might get here sooner.  I don't know why, but I just get this feeling.  But, I do know that most first timers usually don't deliver sooner than their due date.

  • Hold out for the 20th!!

    I've seen a lot of military surprise homecomings. It wouldn't work on me. I always have my back to the corner and my face to the door. Looking for terrorists, criminals, various other threats, and husbands.
  • Hoping you don't have him on Thanksgiving! My best friend's mom had her on Thanksgiving after having a huge dinner. She told her husband that she wasn't going to the hospital until she ate.

    I think the last month went by fast, but I was at the doctor's office twice a week.

  • I'm indifferent. I'm terrified to have an outside baby but on the other hand I can't wait to meet him. The symptoms haven't been bad for me so whatever happens, happens at this point.

    My DD was born on November 10th. Lets just say DH was more than ecstatic about that.

    Be careful with this line of thinking (that he might come sooner). I was pretty darn certain my DS would be born before his EDD. Babies of older moms, of which I am, and IVF babies, which LO is, tend to arrive a little early. Imagine my surprise (and increasing discomfort) to have finally had my LO 13 days after his EDD. Not saying that'll happen to you, but just prepare yourself mentally that he'll be late. If he arrives early or on time--bonus! Every day of those last two weeks felt like a month!!! (Didn't help it was July in Nashville, I was beyond hot!)

    Best of luck to all the soon-to-be mamas! It is a wild ride, but the experience of a lifetime! Oh--and be sure to get a pedicure! After LO was born, it was an eternity before I bothered to get them done again!

    It's my mother's birthday. I only remember her birthday because of it.

    I'm a bad daughter.

    11/11 is so much cooler.  Plus, it's a federal holiday so you never have to go to school on your birthday.  It's one of the few holidays that isn't the nearest Monday.

    I'm definitely not getting my hopes up.

  • I can't believe how close you guys are! Lots of new MN babies, hooray!

    I always tell people this and I know in their heads they're like 'Yeah whatever, F off lady' but seriously just enjoy those last few QUITE weeks where it's just you and the husband. Sleep all day, go to the store and browse, read a book, whatever it is that you enjoying doing, do it.

    I can't believe it's been 6mos since you had j! And I've definitely been lazing around and trying to get in as much uninterrupted gym time as possible.

  • I definitely feel you M! I'm absolutely exhausted. 2U2 is NUTS if anyone is thinking about it (and #2 isn't even here yet!). I have terrible back pain and round ligament pain. I just started physical therapy 2x a week so hopefully that will help and help time pass quickly.

    I have looked full term since about 20 weeks and I'm already getting tired of the "you're huge!" comments.  I love my belly and I love being pregnant but after knowing how awesome DD#1 is, it makes me want DD#2 here all the more!
