That makes me feel better actually!! lol I've been spotting for 3 days, and cramping as well. i just keep praying that the pain gets more intense, but it never does!   but people say you normally go into labor a few days after bloody show? so im hoping something soon..

That is what they say but I had a bloody show on Halloween 10 days ago and still nothing. I don't know really don't this is my 4th kid I really didn't think I would even make it to my due date being that I have had 3 babies and they say that each pregnancy the baby tends to come a little sooner then the one before but nope nothing. I know I wont be pregnant forever just pretty excited you know what I mean. I guess I have a big uterus. I was induced with my last baby at 39 weeks and now I am starting to wonder if that ruined my chances of going into labor on my own. Probably not but these are the things going through my head. I know she is ready to come out and I am ready to meet her we are just waiting on these contractions to start and keep progressing. I will be in pain crying and asking myself why is it I wanted this to hurry up and happen already in no time but I will get a prize at the end, my little baby.... lol

Yesss, i completely agreee ! lol are you going to 42 weeks and seeing if labor starts on its own? I have an appointment monday for an induction sometime this week, but i would rather labor start on its own, ya know?

I know it will start on its own when she is ready to come out but if she does not start labor by 42 weeks I think by then I may consider induction. As of right now I would rather wait I had induction with my last child and it was the worst labor I have ever had. I do not want to do that again unless I have to. They say that 42 weeks is still normal so I guess until then I can wait. I don't think I would wait longer then that though I am wanting to meet this little girl now.

yeah, im scared of induction too. My doc wants to induce me sometime this week, she doesnt want me going passed 41 weeks. Im prolly just gonna go ahead and do it, but id rather labor start on its own :/

When you go past 42 weeks it can be bad for baby too sometimes.

yeah thats what my doc said too. id just make sure you were checked closesly if she wanted to wait till then.

I would like to have her home by thanksgiving so I doubt I would want to stay pregnant longer then 42 weeks. I really doubt it will come to that though I only went 5 days past my due date with my first I cant imagine going too much past that with my 4th. It will happen any time now I hope lol. I have a feeling that labor will start on the 12 which totally ruins my hopes of getting this done over the weekend but this just means she will be a little bigger then I had thought. I wanna kiss this babies face! right now!

Ughhh. its to the point where im fed up and bitchy because i just wanna go into labor lol. so props to you for being so patient. i have a feeling ill go into labor on the 12th aswell   wouldnt that be funny if we both had our babies on mon? lol

Yeah props! I'm only 39 weeks and I have no patience whatsoever.

I'm dying here! lol. I just want my girlie here already!

yeah it would I just have this feeling thats when things will start if it does I will probably have her the next day or two. The early part of labor usually lasts about 16 hours for me then another 16 or more till delivery so I have it planned in my head how I would like things to go I was thinking if my early labor starts say around 5 pm the contractions wont be too bad so I could get some sleep that night and by morning should be heading into active labor part of it all and hopefully some time later in the night I should be giving birth. Lets just see if I am lucky enough for it to either start around the time I want or even better this labor only lasts from start to finish like 16 hours. never know though we could be early labor buddies lol. You all gotta keep us updated when you guys do start having some real labor contractions as will I. I have had several contractions over the last hour but I am not going to get excited until I know for sure its the real deal. With my luck its probably not.
