good to hear how is everyone doing... gj43mc woooow u r still working... amazing... i stopped work on 15/08/08... i can not imagine myself working now... can hardly sleep .. feel very sore and tried and sleepy all day..

I had a scan yesterday and showed my baby growing big and weighting about 4kg already at 37 weeks. The consultant said today that they will wait until 23rd sept to see whether the baby has engaged or whether i will go into labour naturally if no change then more likely they will consider c section to avoid harm to the baby as  after the 23rd the baby will be bigger and there will be a risk of his shoulders not passing the the birth channel which can be very dangerous so no point of induction. I am exited thinking that in 2 weeks time i will be meeting my baby but at the same time worried about how this is going to happen...

I am also sore since I went back to work last week. I work with  preschool children and I am sooo tired at the end of the day. I am planning on working for 2 more weeks and then going on maternity leave on Sept. 22. My due date is Sept. 25. I am very surprised my baby is not here yet since I was at risk for pre-term labor and was put on progesterone shots. My Dr. told me those shots would take me to 34 weeks, but here I am at almost 38 weeks and no baby yet. I don't even think my stomack has dropped yet. At my last checkup over a week ago, the Dr. told me I was almost 3 cm dilated and 70% effaced. She also told me she could feel my baby's head, which surprised me since I don't think I have dropped. I feel like my baby is never going to come since I don't feel contractions. The only thing I feel are period like cramps in my lower abdome and back every once in a while. I wonder if those are Brackton Hicks. I don't feel my stomach tighten or anything, just the cramps and they last about 3-4 seconds and happen randomly throughout the day. I want to go into labor so bad now, I cannot wait to meet my baby!!!!

I'm sore... does that count haha. I never experienced "dropping" with my daughter because i was induced at 37 weeks 5 days with her. Well he dropped a few days ago and I'm having horrid hemorrhoid issues. I took a hot bath today and that seemed to help a bit but its awful, I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. 36 hours until induction! YAY!
I have an internal exam tomorrow at 11:30!
(Doc never called me back today =( )
