Update..........

Well appears as though many Jan 2012 babies are becoming Dec 2011 babies! Hoping all babies are Mums are healthy and enjoy the special time together.

I started havin painful contractions Friday early evening and back pain. On saturday, I called my midwife and we meet at the hospital, where I had a CTG (NST) and internal exam. I had several strong contractions during the CTG and the internal examination revealed that the little one has engaged and deep in the cervix (a little uncommon for subsequent pregnancies, this is my second). I am 2 cm dilated and my mucous plug was started to dissolve. She was rather suprised as we expected an early Jan baby, but now we expect her to come within the next few days. The contractions are still there but have reduced. I'm 37 wks 2 days today, would like her to be born with at least 38 wks but sometimes we just don't have control over it!

Wishing everyone happy holidays and hope we can exchange baby pics and birth stories very soon!

Hi ladies! I haven't been on for a while as my little one was born on 12/21. He was 12 days early but is happy healthy and perfect. Ryan Michael was 7 lbs 15 oz and 20 in long. We are so exhausted and excited :). Congrats to all the Jan moms and hope the babies are all doing well.

Just want to let you guys know, my contractions are much more stronger and regular. My NST was more eventful today, have the feeling she'll be here very soon!!!!

Glad to hear the boys are doing well waitn838.

Hopfulcb: best of luck, the most important thing is that the both of you are healthy. I agree try inducing first (my last pregnancy was induced) and then see how it goes.

Wishing you all the best ladies xo

How exciting!! I'm so glad your boys are doing well! Are they home now?? Zazou, can't wait to hear your update!!!! I will also likely have my little girl early. I am at 36 weeks only but have low amniotic fluid and plan is to induce on Thursday unless my U/S is better tomorrow. My OB also thinks I'll probably need a C-section but will try the induction first. I'm hoping all goes well and she is healthy!! Hope everyone is doing well!!
