yea, you are right...i won't see doctor much anyway...as long as i have good nurses!! nope, she didn't come before induction...at least not yet!! in 12 hours i will be getting prepared for my pitocin drip! yikes!!! but, by the end of the day, unless things go incredibly long, i will have my little girl in my arms :-) it will be worth every second! how is little lily doing?

aw, i am glad that she is doing well...she is a big girl!! have you posted pictures? i think i'm having a big girl also, but we will see on monday! my doctor tried to cancel my regular appt this am (again!!) but i said no, i have to get in...i'm a week overdue! so, they "squeezed me in." i hope to go naturally over the weekend, but if not, i am scheduled for an induction monday morning (i will be 10days late at that point--she's probably 20lbs!). sadly, it's with my least favorite doctor. oh well, i guess they are only there during the end anyway. i am a little nervous about the pitocin...

you and i have the most annoying doctor problems!! i just got a call from my doctor's office "needing to reschedule my appointment for this morning." my appt. was in 55 minutes! this is the second time they cancelled within an hour before for my appt. by next week, it will be 2 weeks since my last check! with it being a holiday weekend, i am sure i won't be able to get in till tuesday...and i still haven't retaken my strep b test. i called them 2xs about it last week and they never called me back. with our next baby, i am doing it totally hippy style! i'm getting a midwife, a doula and doing it in a birthing center!!!

i can't believe they have you see an rn at this point in your pregnancy!!! and 2 wks past your due date???? are they nuts?? that seems like forever for any woman, but for you, a potential big girl coming out of a little girl like yourself? hopefully your doctor will hear your concerns. it's not like you are asking to have this baby before term... i'm hoping i remember to go to my appointment tomorrow!! i forgot until i saw your message--thank you!!! seriously, i am losing it! you think that would be the first thing on my mind...but i don't even know what day it is half the time anymore!!

aw girl, i'm so sorry to hear that!! i know what you mean! my doctor told me 2 weeks at my appointment 17 days ago! i was doing fine till she got my hopes up!! i've been good. lots of cramping and contractions--actually thought last night was going to be my night, but then nothing!! i should just be patient but it's so hard when you get this close. i just want to meet my little girl and start our new life with her. i should enjoy the sleep and relaxation i have up until she comes!! please let me know what happens at your appointment tomorrow. my next appt. is on saturday morning.

WOW, I'm shocked you haven't delivered yet. I really thought a couple weeks ahead, but that's great...longer in the oven the better. :) I really wish you luck and hope everything goes smooth for you and I'm thinking about you :)

You're in my thoughts all the time, but especially today. I was just seeing if you've had that wonderful blessing yet? :) I hope all is well

Just a quick note to say hi! with my daughter... she was 1 1/2 weeks over due. i was induced 3 times, she was just soooo comfortable she didnt want to come out!! lol she made her appearance 3 days later weighing 9lbs 1oz. she was sooo wrinkled and dry, i felt terrible for her. her skin was so cracked, we had to apply cream to her hands and feet for 7 days at least 6 times a day. her cracks would bleed... it was awful. she was so "overbaked!" lol

Just a quick note to say hi! OMG!! my fingers are crossed that she's no bigger then 9lbs!! you poor girl!!! maybe she'll feel bad for you and decide to come early!! if shes already over 7lbs, shouldnt the doc consider inducing you?? 4 weeks is a long time to wait, and the baby is only gonna get bigger!! i feel terrible for you!! im glad that your spirits are good and that you are excited for her to come. ive got 6 weeks left, i see the doc on friday, baby has dropped and is head down, so we'll see what else doc has to say! other then the BAD heartburn and backaches, im doing pretty good. i still cant believe im 34 weeks already, time has flown!!
