    ..is the hardest part. I have about 2 weeks left until the due date and I'm going crazy trying to figure out if I'm in pre-labor, has the baby dropped, etc.

    We had a bit of a false alarm last Thursday and ended up in L&D. It ended up being nothing, but I've already started the dilation/effacement process. Too bad I've read that some women are at 1.5 and 75% for weeks before they deliver. Ugh.

    Ladies who have already had their babies did you have them late, on time, early?

    That is the SAME question I asked when I around your stage. :p

    Jocelyn, I was worried like you about little Chloe if she was already making her way into the world or not. I swear, I had very strong contractions and then it went away. My midwife told me if they continued @ 5 mins. interivals for an hour, that is when I had to call her, but that didn't happen at all for me. My due date was Jan. 4th. It came and went. I went to my midwife and my cervix didn't dilate as much, less than 1 cm!! could you believe that?! I had to get tested, I forgot what it was called, where they make sure that the baby is okay. they look to see if the baby is healthy through sonogram and also check yours and your baby's heart rate and contractions. I went to the hospital for that twice, and then my midwife told me that it was already going to be two weeks after the due date, so they had to induce me. Ouch!

    sorry to scare you with my story. I know you are just as anxious of meeting your little one. We all been there and keep us posted :)

    Adria was 9 days early.


    Oh I cant wait for her teeth to be all done coming through.
    She doesnt get crabby but instead wakes in the night and Im soooo done with this.
    Tired and shes so busy during the day theres not much time to put your feet up.
    But shes getting big so fast that I cant dwell too long or shes gonna be 12years old.
    We spent a week at a ranch this last week and Adria is infatuated with horses.
    She loves to neigh and pthhhh at me when I ask her wath a horse says.
    Shes still a little shy of touching them but loves to point and make the sounds. I think they are just a bit overwhelming for her with thier size. Even for an animal lover like her.

    Keep us posted lady.
    Im thinking of you.

    J....4 days late
    D...3 weeks early
    A...2 weeks early
    B...1 week early

    Average first baby is around 10 days late. After that it seems like most people go closer to their due dates.

    Where's Lady?

    Jocelyn gave birth to Molly Lynn early this morning at 1:42 AM. She weighed in at 5 lbs 8 oz and 19 inches. Both mom and baby are doing fine.

    I had to come home to take care of our dogs so I figured I would share the news. OK, I've been up for 26 hrs straight now so I'm gonna take a quick nap and head back to the hospital.

    We'll share more later.

    looking so damn proud of herself for using a fork...lol

    Thanks for looking! I know I posted a ton. I can't help it. I'm her mom. lol :D

    She has about 8 teeth now, and our sleep still hasn't been interrupted! I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop. She will probably wake up screaming tonight because I said that. lol :D

    She is starting to repeat a lot of words, and is starting to do animal sounds on command. Her favorite one is the elephant, because it's loud. She's also really getting into making faces, which is hilarious. I think she is trying to do a forward roll, but hasn't quite figured out how to roll over yet. We're going to start taking her to The Little Gym once a week, because I think she will love having a place to expend some of her energy.

    Changing diapers is a total nightmare right now, because all she wants to do is get up and run away... I make Greg help me change her whenever he is home, but during the day, I just cringe when it comes time to change her! Another thing we are stressing over right now is the fact that she figured out how to lower the side of her crib. I think we might have to get one of those net things for over the top of it...lol.

    I hope everyone is doing well!! :)
