My little girl likes to pull a Miley Cyrus and go all wrecking ball on my vagina. She will push and bash her head so hard I can't sit, stand or walk. I have to have the strongest water bag ever! She was doing it at my last dr appointment and the dr was surprised my water hadn't broke yet. It hurts so darn bad!! I'm going to have a serious talk with this girl when she gets here. (:
^^Very wise telling people your due date is two weeks later than it is! This waiting game is horrible. I'm 38 weeks 5 days. Baby is so low I can hardly walk and my feet have been swollen since Friday. I have so little energy and seem to be hungry all the time. Plus I am having a big baby...been measuring 1-2 weeks ahead all along. My midwife told me to have lots of sex to encourage labour to start but it's so uncomfortable and I have so little energy that it feels like a chore - something I never thought I'd be saying!!
For all the overdues you just provide a really comfy room in there! "So says my midwife". Reading all this is making me feel anxious cos I have a week left and my baby is pretty comfortable. Last week I was in pain and ready to pop but this week I feel really good and normal. Hhmm im curious to see how this plays out!
4 days over due I've gone into depression but now I don't feel so alone. But I've battled depression this entire pregnancy and for 10 years. But I'm happy I'm not tree only but sad we're all still waiting
I told my family two weeks later than my due date so that way i don't feel pressure. I just let it be... when the baby is ready then i'm ready - no point of forcing it unless dr said its time to induce or its a must.
Have anyone tried any induced labor techniques? Acupuncture is a good way to go
Also over due only by 2 days but I want this baby out! Never felt so cranky and horrible in my life, the ignoring phone calls is my next step to induce labour might actually help me relax haha!best advice I keep receiving is dtd and keeping walking about. I can hardly stand up without been in pain never mind anything else ! X
Ya i finally gave up on self inducing yesterday after trying for 3 days straight. Walked, sex, pineapple, rasperry leaf tea, squats, nipple stimulation. :( I will say the nipple stimulation brought on some very strong and painful contractions but i just couldnt do it for the 1 hour. Glad im not alone in this long battle lol
I have a week left and reading everyones post about being overdue makes me so sad. I really wanted my baby to come on his due date bc its a special day for us. Maybe its still a possibility but im a ftm =( havent had contractions or lost my mucous plug. Last week was told i wasnt dilated or effaced at all. Go to the dr tomorrow and hope something has changed. Ive been walking plenty but i dont feel any different. The only thing im noticing is my stomach getting hard more often and baby is less active

at least I'm not alone. hopefully we will have these babies soon
Trying to self induce is wearing me out. I gave up and now am just riding this out. I know 5 women who were all due in october. 3 of which were due after me and have all had their babies. Not fair!!
I'm 4 days overdue now too... I feel like I've run out of things to occupy my mind. I'm done trying to self induce and keep telling myself any minute... So uncomfortable sleeping and laying awake praying for labor to start! It is nice to hear it's not just my baby that's tardy! These little Libras are stubborn!
Seems like october babies are stubborn!!! :) im exhausted too, trying to stay positive but its hard when ur in so much pain. :/
Do what I do and ignore phone calls. I wait awhile and text them sorry I was cleaning or some lame excuse. I know girl it feels like I will be pregnant forever!!
