October Babies! (continued)

AHHH Katie, I hope maybe this is the start for you!

Its FINALLY October!! We are having our babies this month! Even if I go so far over due that I need inducing, unless it takes 2/3 days to get me started and get him out there is no doubt he will be arriving this month!
I do feel done at this point though. I feel like I've done this 4 times in 8 years, its enough! But then I know I will want to do it again when its all over LMAO

I woke up this morning feeling so excited and positive, just because its October now LOL I can't wait, I want to know what he weighs and what he looks like, if his going to take after one of his brothers or be completely different. I want to cuddle him and feed him and finally see all those new little clothes on him LOL I am so looking forward to doing all those baby things again.
I have tried to contain myself on facebook, but I know that you girls all understand as you are all due this month too HAHA

Also I have to say sometimes I wish we did get cervical checks here, I'd love to know what was going on in there, if it was looking close or not going to happen for a while.
I have what I hope will be my last midwife appointment on Thursday. I will be exactly 38 weeks then. She told me they don't see you at your due date now, so its 38 weeks then again if your still hanging on at 41 weeks!

Yay, Katie! You are hopefully having your little one soon!

I can't sleep AT ALL either. I think a lot of it is worrying about money because we had a few annoying and expensive things need attention and it's wiped us out a bit. Grrr....but otherwise just uncomfortable. I am super emotional lately too and will cry at the drop of a hat and get upset with kids pretty easily, but I think the family all knows not to mess with me right now LOL. And the commentary from strangers gets barely a response from me anymore. "Wow, you look like you're about to pop/Are you having twins?/That baby has dropped!/When is your baby due?" I used to enjoy chatting about being pregnant but not so much anymore!

38 weeks today and getting checked so hopefully SOMETHING is happening. I had girls late so not getting hopes up.

I had contractions every 10 minutes for HOURS, and I paid close attention to see if they'd ever progress but they didn't. Eventually they stopped! My mom has this very strong feeling I won't make it to Monday, but I'm just not sure.

I can't believe it's October! It's my favorite month of the year -- cool weather, hay rides, pumpkin patches, you name it. I love everything about autumn!

It's so exciting to think we're in our birth month. We no longer have to say we're due next month!!!!!! I cannot wait to start reading about births and seeing pictures of all our beautiful babes!

Aw sorry to hear it all stopped. I too love autumn.

We are in our Due date month! YAY. I had a doctor's appointment this morning and I am 2 cm. My doctor doesn't think I will make it to my due date. DH gets back in town Friday and he will be home until the baby comes.

I haven't been on in awhile but I thought I'd check in since its our birth month!

I went to the doctor today and I'm 3 cm dilated. Doctor wants me to come in on Monday and get my membranes stripped cause he thinks it'll put me into labor. He will be out of town next Weds/Thurs so he's hoping to make it happen on Monday before he leaves. I'll only be 38 weeks though and I don't like to rush baby out if not ready. What do you ladies think? Strip or not strip?

So exciting that we'll will be holding our babies very soon!

Very weepy today!!!! Hate collecting my son from nursery! All the mothers are saying, so excited for you, this is def the girl for you. You are so much smaller this time. I am smaller because I was careful about putting on too much weight, not because its a girl!!! DH doesn't know I feel like his, he thinks I am over the GD. I hope I fall In Love with him when he's born. I feel so bad for feeling like this and that is only making it worse, I so hope he is a healthy wee fella.

I'm having a tough GD lately too. I think for so long in between I didn't have any people guessing but now that I'm so close everyone is over the top telling me "this is your girl." It's heartbreaking. Too it off with the fact that TWO college friends who both have two boys just announced they are having girls. Just puts me in a tailspin. All my friends w two boys are starting to try to get pregnant again and I seriously just wish they wouldn't get pregnant at all. I hate that I feel this way. :(
