Well I guess thats true! Today the upset stomach is getting a little better! I do think it all boils down to the food thing! I am dialated to a one! BLAH! I see my doctor on Thursday! I am hopeful that I will have changed a little with all the discomfort I am feeling! I think the anxiety and or anticipation of seeing little baby Evan is making worse! Thanks for all your help though! I really appreciate it!

LoL I have tired EVERYTHING under the sun to make baby come, but nothing is working, so baby will come when baby is ready, is what I am down to.  And I am 39weeks 1day by my doctor's due date, and over due by my orriginal due due date... so who the heck knows when your baby will come, I haven't even had any contractions yet... So I understand your pain and frusteration.  It sux, but what can you do, aside from  reaching up inside and pulling the baby out.  LoL.  Has your midwife cheeked your cervex yet to see if you're dialtated?  Oh and about the sick to your stomach feeling, I have been having it on and off too, and I think it comes from not being able to eat what you'd normally eat to keep yourself full.  Have you tried small meals throughout the day insted of three big meals, that seems to help me.  Also you could try taking some tums or rolaids to ease the nausous feeling... Sorry I'm not too much help in that boat because I'm not really sure myself.  But hang in there, it will all be over sooner than you think.

Just gotta hang in there....keep yourself busy. I've refolded clothes and reorganized baby Mickey's room about 10245877225 times. Just get around the house, cleaning, organizing, etc. and make sure to stay hydrated!! Dehydration causes painful contractions but they won't do anything for you...just make you hurt. Try to nap when you can, and best of luck.

Baby will be here before you know it, and all of this will be worth it :)
