Pretty in Pink Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) ETA: Monday morning @ 845: Baby is coming today ladies. Strong contractions 10-15 minutes apart for nearly 8 hours now, spotting, loss of MP (sorry if TMI). I'll go in when contractions are under 10 minutes apart since that's as close as they ever got with my last delivery. We're all so excited!!! I'm still pregnant. :D Baby is active. My contractions are still sporadic -- sometimes a few each hour and sometimes an hour between contractions. They were noticably stronger overnight and still today. Baby has been facing my pubic bone rather than my spine for weeks now but today I think she may have finally turned around -- I felt a very odd sensation earlier as I was squatting down, like something slipped behind my pubic bone. Maybe she is dropping. Thanks for all of the input in my other thread. I will keep you ladies updated this week.

cindergretta Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 :grouphug: :lurk5: I only ever had one baby drop (#4) and wow, what a weird feeling! :lol: When I stepped out of the shower (it had just happened while I was in the shower) my dh looked at me and his eyes popped out of his head and he practically yelled, "Mama! You lost your shelf!" :lol: :lol: :lol: (I'm so excited for you! :D ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktgrok Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 check out spinning babies for positioning info. And definitely do NOT induce if baby isn't in a good posiiton! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denisemomof4 Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 If I remember right, you're due for an induction on Friday. I hope we see pictures of your new little one before then!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momof3littles Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 check out spinning babies for positioning info. :iagree: It is a great site and was helpful to me in 2 of my pregnancies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PentecostalMom Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Baby has been facing my pubic bone rather than my spine... Glad all is well with you. Just FYI, all of my babies except for the one I just gave birth to have been "suuny-side-up." I have had both hospital and birth center births, all with no manipulation necessary and no induction or pain medications. It's not always necessary that babies are face down. Hope you have a safe birth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty in Pink Posted October 9, 2011 Author Share Posted October 9, 2011 If I remember right, you're due for an induction on Friday. I hope we see pictures of your new little one before then!!! I'm due to go in for a biophysical profile on Friday and they want to schedule the induction for the following Monday, Oct. 17th. I'm thinking baby will be here by then. *fingers crossed* Thanks for the sweet well wishes, gals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janie Grace Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Thanks for the update! I think you're going to go the 15th. That's just my completely unscientific guess based on your REAL due date and your past deliveries. But for your sake, I hope it's a little sooner. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chepyl Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I hope you have a safe and quick delivery. With DD, I did grande plies in 2nd (big squats with my feet apart). I could feel her move down everytime. I was a strange sensation, but I think it really helped get her moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
