Oh boy

Yea! I'm losing my mucus plug. But that's about it. I feel like hell. Like I'm coming down with the flu. Lots of intestinal issues, head ache, general feeling of crappiness, and some painful, but irregular braxton hicks. Maybe Miles will be an April Fools baby? I know it's unlikely, but dear goodness, I would be so friggin' happy. Only 13 ( Read more... )

There's hope! I lost my mucus plug on Tuesday morning, my water broke that night around 8pm, and she was born Wednesday at 2pm. And I hadn't even been having braxton hicks, not once the whole time.

Good luck, and if you can, sleep constantly from now until you go into labor. Seriously, eat your meals in bed and go back to sleep as soon as you're done chewing.

LOL, that's exactly what I've been doing. The eating and then passing out thing. I'm so exhausted and I haven't done ANYTHING. And thank you for sharing your story, there is hope! But I'm not counting on anything until I have a bloody show, some membranes rupturing, or regular painful contractions. :o)

I hate to be negative nancy but I lost my mucous plug at like 36 weeks and Daniel came at 39 1 day. =/ That usually doesn't mean too much except you ARE dilating. Which is good! But if you're feeling kind of sick and are starting to get the runs, that may mean that labor is coming on. Good luck!

Thank you! And no, I don't think you're being negative at all...unfortunately I know that I could have weeks left. Bleh. But yeah, the dilating makes me VERY happy, and the bathroom issues, while sucky, are definitely on the plus side of things too. LOL.
