Bitter Sweet <\3

I'm due the 13th of August but since he's measuring a lil chub they're inducing me on the 6th! So excited to meet him, yet so sad I'm leaving my other lil guy who just turned two recently. I've been crying so much, and yes he'll be in good hands but still. We are very close, he's very independent but still loves spending quality time with me and we won't have that for a couple days. Hurts so bad. How did you moms handle this?

I'm trying not to stress leaving my lil guy, much easier my older ones are teenagers and not so needy of mom like he is!! I'm so scared I'm going to somehow fail during delivery, I dint know what that's about. I'm feeling so much pain that I feel like I can't do it. I've never had that feeling. But babies coming wether I like it or not! And if my baby is huge there goes those newborn clothes! Luckily I purchased mostly 0-3 month clothing! Assuming he'd be fairly big! I hope we all deliver safe and quickly! I'll def post my labor being that he is big! Gl to all you moms! <3

If I make it they are inducing me a week early as well. It's very hard I am leaving 5 boys at home ages are 2 to 12 and let me tell you it's hard my 3 little ones are big time mammas boys. But just have faith you little one will be just fine.

I am due Aug 13 as well....my son is weighing in at 8lbs 5oz as of today. So they are inducing me at my 39 week mark as well. I am so relieved cause my tummy don't feel like it can get much larger. When I had my daughter my son was 4 it was tough on me as well...but he did very well. I pray things go well for you....don't stress.  :-)

At around 35 wks he was measuring around 6lbs. 4oz. No talks about a c-section because she believes I'll deliver naturally. The only way that'll happen is if there's an issue during delivery. I'm personally convinced he'll come with no issues. But they're inducing a week early.
Just watch what you eat. I'm trying my best to start away from sweets but every now and then I need some chocolate! I'll post how it goes!

How much does ur baby weigh what r they guestimating? R the Drs hoping he will come naturally? Has there been any talks of a possible c section? The reason I ask is bcuz I believe u and I have similar situations except without the diabetes.. i hope I'm not being to invasive.

It's killing me inside. I'm hoping delivery and discharge go quick! But that's not a reality!

I'm the same way about my 2 year old son! We're not sure if my mom will make the 9 hour drive before our daughter is born so I'm freaking out...but the thought of him sleeping at home without me if my mom can watch him stresses me out...even though I trust my mom...I just don't want my son being left out.
