July Mommas....Guessing Game

posted 11th Jul
So...I thought it would be fun to play a guessing game while we are awaiting our precious little bundles. Guess the following and after you have the baby, come back to your post and edit it with the updated, correct info. (but still leave your guesses too). It should be fun to see what our intuition tells us! P.S. I'll try to keep it bumped up toward the top during the month of July so you can update.

Sex (If you already know by U/S still put it, but put you already know and how): Girl. GIRL!
Birth date and time: July 15th at 5:50 am. July 15th at 3:31 pm
Weight: 6 lbs. 14oz. 6 lbs. 14oz.!!!
Length: 21 inches 19 3/4 in.
Duration of labor (from first contraction...approximately, to the birth): Well, I have contractions all the time now...so it may be hard to time. I think my water is going to break and from that point on it will be 2 1/2 hours. 34 hours prodromal labor, 5 1/2 hours augmented labor with pitocin. Only pushed for 4 minutes though! Yay!
Any other info. you want to guess/share: ETA: I guess I could share that at this point at 38w4d I am 4cm and 70-80% effaced. I've had a lot of preterm labor issues and the doctor never thought I would make it this long. Well...she was wrong! I was induced with my son with less progress and the labor lasted 10 hours from the beginning of the pitocin to delivery. If I do make it to my scheduled induction on the 16th, I think my labor willl be much longer....gonna guess 9 hours for that.

Sex (If you already know by U/S still put it, but put you already know and how): Boy (we found out by u/s)
Birth date and time: July 15th at 6:32 pm
Weight: 7 lbs 14 oz
Length: 20 inches
Duration of labor (from first contraction...approximately, to the birth): 14 hours...pretty sure my water will break early on though
Any other info. you want to guess/share: I'm 1- 1.5 cm and 50 % dilated right now. With my daughter I had her on her due date and started at 1 cm and not sure the effacement (it was 3 years ago, I don't remember!). I was never supposed to make it this far as he was threatening to come out around 32 weeks, but he proved everyone wrong! Before I was doing everything I could to keep him in, now I'm doing everything I can to get him out!!
