Looks like I'll be an October Momma!!

Just wanted to introduce myself, my name is Amy and I'm almost 25, pregnant with my first baby. I am 32 weeks tomorrow. I created the November 2011 group because my original due date was 11/1/11. I was in the hospital last week because I was having bright red spotting and called my doctor in a panic. I went to labor & delivery and had a cervical exam and then an ultrasound. My baby is perfect and it was so reassuring to be told that I'm not at risk for pre-term labor at this time. They moved my due date to 10/27 since every ultrasound I've had since 7 weeks showed my baby as measuring anywhere from 4-8 days ahead. I am so happy to possibly be meeting him sooner than expected. I hope we all have uneventful rest of our pregnancies since this is my second time with unexplained bleeding since 22 weeks. It's very scary but I just keep praying he stays put for at least another 6 weeks. Hope to chat with you ladies before and after our bundles of joy arrive = )

Welcome to our club!!!

Im thinking more and more everyday that ill end up being a September momma....  Like you this is my first and I am almost 25...  I really still want my baby to be an October baby especially since there is a real chance she will be born on or around my own Bday if she comes in September.. But i have come to the conclusions that I would need to hold out until 38 weeks to even make it to October...  I am just praying to hold out until 36 weeks.... It still feels way too early to me but its like my comfort zone....  Stranger things  have happen, I keep joking with my DH that ill end up having to get induced at 42 weeks even though I am already showing signs of PTL .... but then I get some pretty intense contractions and start to worry that its going to happen anytime...

3 more days of complete bed rest for me before I can go onto moderate activity
