And baby Avi is finally here as you've all gathered! I'm so sorry I've been MIA for so long...I haven't meant to be. The days just are flying by and today has been the first real day I've actually felt like myself and have been able to get up and do stuff around the house. I posted the birth story in the forum...she was born on Feb 16th at 10:55 am. I was in labor for a little under 3 hrs. She was...

I cannot believe it's taken me so long to post her birth story!! I am so sorry ladies! Seeing as how she's almost 2 weeks old already (!) I might should go ahead and let you all know the adventure I had in getting her here.
She was born February 16th at 10:55 am. Her entire labor was just under 3 hrs. I hit 42 weeks on Sunday night. My midwife came over and we decided to go ahead and do a little...

Well ladies, tomorrow is the day!! My lovely midwife is coming over at 3pm on Sunday afternoon to strip my membranes and see if we just might be able to coax baby Avigail out into the world [pray]. Maybe by Sunday night I'll be holding my precious princess that I've been waiting so long for. My BP has returned to normal (praise God!) so everything still seems to be a-ok. I'm not sure where I'll go...

Wow! I can't believe it's that close already! I too wonder why your doc would want to induce you next week? I can't wait to see pics of your princess and I hope she comes soon for you [love]

9 lbs!?!?!?!? I hope not [8o|]. But hey, at this point in the game as long as she just freakin' comes, she can be as big as she darn well wants to be lol.
Okay, so I met with my midwives yesterday. Kinda. One of my midwifes, my senior midwife up and went to Florida this week because apparently her mom needed her. I found this out yesterday at my appt. And guess who'll be taking her place if baby ...

Hey gals, I'm still here! No baby either. I have an appt. with my midwives today to discuss some things, because to be honest, this is getting quite ridiculous!! There's talk of stripping membranes so possibly that might get done this week. I will let you all know what goes down when I get back from my appt today!!
Thanks for thinking of me! I haven't been on much because my mom and sister flew d...

Well, I'm still here and last time I checked....still pregnant [:P]. I took 2 Tbsp's of castor oil at about 3 pm yesterday. By 5 pm I was in intense pain. And I mean intense! Then I began to have regular contractions about every 2 min and lasting 30-45 seconds. I talked to my midwives who said it was possible I threw myself into labor, but they weren't sure if it was labor or not. The lower a...

Oh how excititng!! I hope your babe comes for you soon!!! [GLC]. You're definitely having more signs than I am. If you just had in internal or sex though that could also dislodge it...so it just depends. Either way you've got to be close and I can imagine ready to have that baby.

Had my appt. with my midwives yesterday. Baby is now posterior again so I've been on hands and knees most of the day yesterday (well, when not chasing 2 boys around lol) trying to get her to turn =) I now have +3 swelling (when pushed the indent lasts for 15 seconds) and am overall completely miserable but my bp and urine are good to go so things are still ok. The midwives assured me the swelling ...

Aw....what a tropper is right!!! Congratulations on a beautiful healthy baby girl and I'm so glad to hear from you [love]. You are sweet not to want to worry us, but we definitely would have wanted to be some support during that difficult time. Either way she's here now and that's all that matters!!!! HOORAY!
