I feel your pain both my boys came a 42 weeks first after 48 hours after a stretch and sweep my 3rd was at 42 weeks after having my waters broken.

Eeeeewwwww That sounds awful!!
I think this one would have gone to 42 at least...he is happy as a clam where he is.

Yes my boys were very happy to stay along haha, they say your cervical length determines when the baby usually arrives so the longer the length the longer they wait, good luck with your induction

Raezodal- I hope you'd had your baby and are spending time getting to know him Can't wait to hear the news

So ive had my growth scan & babys on 95th centile! 6 lbs already at 34 weeks so est 9lbs at due date. But there was a problem spotted- i have too much fluid, deepest pool was 9.9cm . So ive to get a gtt tomoro to test for diabetes as that can cause the excess waters but if its not that then it could be a number of things. Quite worrying as theyr saying babys head can struggle to engage until all the waters go and that then risks the cord coming first & if that happens it can be fatal for baby. Not what i needed to hear

Oh man Sharon. Sorry to hear that! They can be wrong about baby size sometimes though. Hoping you don't have diabetes! Maybe they will induce you early because of it all! That would be nice! I have my first OB appointment this Thurs. We'll see how I'm measuring. I've been losing some globs of mucus over the last few days, and my BH contractions are getting pretty brutal when they hit so those are good signs for me. I would love to only have to be pregnant until 37 weeks!!! Good luck Sharon! No news from Raezodal!

Sorry for no news!! My mobile data got turned on by accident so when I got to the hospital and had no wifi, I had nothing left.
Brendan Micah arrived Thursday afternoon at 3:15. 7h after insertion of Foley balloon for induction. Long story short, was my shortest and easiest labour. Only hiccup was I popped a rib out of my sternum during transition. Freaked me out (and it turns out my midwife though she didn't let on at all!!) It is getting better but such mundane things as driving (shoulder checks), bending over, moving or using my arms, transitioning from lying down to sitting up, even drinking through a straw...all hurt.
But the exciting part! Brendan was 8lbs8oz, 21" long and 36cm head. He is absolutely beautiful. Think he was gunning for biggest and that was why he had no intention of being born (he has biggest head of my 5, but heaviest was 9lbs1oz and longest was 21.75" so he had a little ways to go...another week probably would have done it lol)
Stayed in the hospital on "vacation" as long as I could (chest pain due to rib helped justify my staying). Am home now. Brendan is nursing like a champ. Still moderately high levels of bilirubin so I have to go every day to get him checked.
