Almost done August mommies!!!

Just thought I would drop a word of encouragement to you all because I know how it feels to be overdue and almost there and 2 weeks left :) I was due July 25 with my little lady but she decided to come 13 days past my due date and while it wasnt easy to be that far overdue and especially during the hottest time of they year (its in the 100's right now) it was all worth it in the end. Just remember that you wont be pregnant forever and while it may seem like this is the worst thing you could go thru there is such an awesome gift at the end that will take it all away. Your baby will come when they are due and even though we are given due dates its all up to baby as to when they want to come. I was grateful actually that my baby was late because she only weighed 7lbs 11oz and had she been born earlier would have been a tiny little thing!!! What helped me get thru each day of being over due was just knowing it couldnt last forever and my way of dealing with EVERYTHING is to laugh about it. Yes its frustrating and you dont feel good and you cant move and you have to pee non stop BUT for some reason I just put on a smile and said I can do this!!! So can all of you. Hopefully you can all enjoy the rest of your final days of being pregnant and know that very soon you will be holding your little babies and it will all be worth the long drawn out wait :) Hopefully not to many of you have to go 13 days over :) but to be honest it wasnt horrible... Hang in there and try to sleep cuz trust me babies do not sleep at night LOL My little girl has her nights and days mixed up and I am the one suffering for it!! And while you may think that being induced will make it all better I am glad I was not because for my first baby my labor was 8 hours and 20 minutes!!! And it wasnt horribly painful like the movies say it is :) Congrats to you all and best of luck in the upcoming weeks that all will go smooth!!

Yes I got the constant email text facebook posts calls everything because of how fat over I was... I actually ran out of cell minutes lol.  But also another thing to keep in mind... I tried sex walking bouncing oregano lol..  Nothing helped one bit because my baby just want ready and that was honestly ok. It's very hard to wait but you will get there.  And yes like jlavera said as long a your baby is moving you know they are ok.

Thank you so much for that. I think I needed to hear that today. Back to the doctor tomorrow and hoping for some good news.

Yes thank you :)
I agree that the hardest part is knowing you are sooo close and the fact that everybody decides to call, text, email, facebook ect and ask if there is a baby yet or when are you going to have It makes me want to scream and say if I knew when the baby was coming I would tell you just to shut you up lol
I am 1 day over due now and my hubby is getting impatient saying we should have sex and whatnot to try and jump start labor

Thanks for that. It is hard but getting a little easier I think the hardest part of it all is everyone keep calling and texting me saying "how you feeling...any contractions...tell him he can come out now" I know they are being nice but that's the most annoying part. I am just glad that my baby is constantly moving so I know he is ok in there
