Today is my due date ...

And baby boy doesn't want to come out just yet. Any encouraging words of wisdom? Im happy he's healthy and comfy beings this is a rainbow baby for me. I had my daughter 16 yrs ago in June and than being 16 yrs old myself and my husband 18 we somehow managed to wait till our mid 20s. It wasn't until 3 years ago I've had a lost every year. Really threw me through a mental spiral.

This pregnancy tho I must say (what's up with all the must says lol ) it has me chill af. Like I have purpose again.

Moms out there, did any of this happen to you in a similar situation?

P.s I lost my mucus plug yesterday, cramping here and there and tightness. Terrible back pain, membrane sweep last Wednesday and nadda.

Are you having any bloody show with the mucous plug loss? I had a membrane sweep at 38 weeks and thought it failed then at 38&5 I had some blood streaks in discharge and a terrible back ache, cramping in my abdomen but not contraction pain, and nausea out of nowhere so I went to go get checked and I was 4cm and 90% effaced. Babygirl came at 38&6 lol.

Labor is different for everyone but your timeline on that membrane sweep and mucous plug line up with mine lol!

Due dates are more of a general guess than a for sure thing. Baby will likely be here when they are ready. But it sounds like things are starting to progress. It could be anytime now! You can do this! Have you dilated any?
My stepdaughter wants to know so badly exactly when she can meet her baby brother but at this point it’s up to him now because I can only give her a time frame guess.

unfortunately there’s no way of really knowing for sure. I’m 40+5 and I’ve been 3-4cm dilated for a month, continually lose pieces of my mucus plug, have had two membrane sweeps, and have contractions that fizzle out into nothing. I also got shots for baby to rapidly develop his lungs at 34 weeks bc they thought I would go into preterm labor. He’s been ready he just won’t come out lol. I have an induction date set for this Thursday

Nausea back again

Anyone else?! I’m 34 weeks and feel like my nausea is definitely back, it feels like first trimester all over again, especially the moment I have an empty stomach 🤢

Anxiety

I’m 10 weeks and I have had so much anxiety probably for the last 2-3 weeks I already deal with anxiety but it was a tad bit easier shaking it off when I wasn’t pregnant.. I am on medication but doesn’t seem to be doing much tbh— I see a lot of yall say it’s a first trimester thing but this is my 3rd baby and I don’t remember being this anxious especially bc sometimes I’m just laying and heart rate reaches the the 120s am I the only one? Please help with suggestions. I don’t want to feel like this.. I know pregnancy is hard but fudge this makes it’s harder 😔😔😔
