Just here to grumble....

Today is my due date and..................... nada, nothing, zilch.

I'm distracting myself but it's hard not to pass the calendar and sigh and even pout a little. BUT she will come when she comes. She has to come out by at least Tuesday (a week from today, at 41 weeks, the midwife will break my water if I don't have her on my own).

Send some labor dust my way! Like truckloads of it!!!

I realize this post is old but since so many people made predictions I wanted to say my Zoë girl was born that Friday, October 23 at 2:06pm.

Lots of people did guess Friday, wow! She's a happy 16-month-old now and we're pregnant with another new blessing.

My backpain has been so intense for the last five days that I can only get around now by walking with a limp. I too am shocked that with all this pain and discomfort, most of all through the pressure, which can make me go light-headed, I still have not gone into labour. So I guess what we are experiencing are typical symptoms of bigger babies (due to being overdue) preparring to come out. They are almost here!!
I will be very busy this time tomorrow, preparring to go to bed and wake up on the morning that I am being induced, Saturday at 9am!!! Yay. Wish she would come sooner than that thought ;-)  41 weeks 2 days now.

Still a waiting game; not going in. Never really had pressure like this before but apparently it is normal.

Awww, I was so hoping that not hearing from you today meant you were on your way to having little Zoe.  Hopefully your midwife will have you checked immediately and will get you on track :)   Let us know!!!

Awww I wish you guys were right but I'm not at the hospital. I did, however, put a call in to the midwife. I'm in so much pain I can hardly walk. I feel stupid for calling about it but I'm worried. I've felt so great this entire pregnancy that this pain is like a red flag.

Please God, please......... let them find out I'm like 6cm and admit me!

If she is already at the hospital, I might change my prediction and say that she is pushing as we speak, LOL.

I love hearing the stories of early labor leading into the birth day. Its like reading a good book, lol cant wait til you get to the end. So we are all waiting on the end of the book, whether or not Joy went to the hospital.

Good Luck, can't wait to end of the end/beginning of the story.

You may be right, it might be a good sign she isn't on. :)

Having said that - - - I don't think Joy has been online since last night, so maybe she headed off to the hospital already.

Joy - - - if you're out there still, check in with us, ok??
