Burst of Energy

[Jwilliams229]

Hi ladies,
I got this burst of energy yesterday.  Normally I have to take a nap in the afternoon.  But yesterday i was like the energizer bunny.  After a full day of running errands I came home and basiclly cleaned the whole house.  I mentioned it to my mom later on that night when I talked to her and she googled it and found a few articles that say many women have this right before giving birth many 24 to 48 hours before hand.  Any women experience this before?  I am a FTM.

I am 40 weeks and 3 days... My induction date is on Saturday my first baby. I was hoping the full moon made a difference, I am not even dilated at all. Think the full just made it worst for me.

:) Ya I was thinking that I would have my little girl on the full moon but as of my appt yesterday unless my water breaks I think I still have another week to go... Would really rather not deliver at 42 weeks but it might happen. As long as my little girl is healthy thats all that matters to me.

But are you dilated at all or have you been checked yet?? I keep hearing that most FTMs are always late but I have heard of lots of FTMs lately that are early... Its always possible but all depends on your body and if your baby is ready to come out.

I have 3 weeks until my due date but have been contracting just has not been rhythmic or consistent yet. Have a dr appt in the am though.  Maybe the full moon tonight will help

Ya I have had 2 big bursts of energy but still havent gone into labor and still am not dilated. I know they say that you normally do get it but I dont know if thats 100% accurate for everyone with every pregnancy since they are always so different. But its very common to hear that. Are you close to your due date? I am 1 week overdue and am showing no signs of labor anytime soon.
