TOB: 7:55pm
COB: Clinton, Missouri (Central Time) City of Conception: Clinton, Missouri (Central Time)
Again, thanks so much for doing this!!

Is anyone doing Jonas charts anymore? ScootieLou did one for me quite some time ago and was correct, but it looks like she is no longer a member (?). I would love to have another chart done for our last baby. Thanks!

ScootieLou did a chart for me a while back and was dead on. I O'd on the day she predicted and was blessed with our beautiful baby girl nine months later. I am very pleased with the results and will be looking for another Jonas chart the next, and final, time around. HTH

I had my last OB app't this morning!! I haven't changed since last week's app't; still dilated to a 3 and about 25% effaced. My induction is scheduled for tomorrow morning and I'll be 40w4d. I'm doubting there's any chance of me going into spontaneous labor between now and tomorrow morning [doh] The midwife did say that she's "sunny side-up" with her knees poking me just above the belly butto...

I LOVE the Playtex Drop-Ins; they're very similar to the breast and have been wonderful with the boys. I did try a couple of others with DS2 and didn't like them nearly as much.

Due Date was 09/12; Induction scheduled for 09/16 at 5:45am, if she doesn't decide to come sooner!

I like Colleen out of the two. Plus, it sounds like it fits better with your other DD's (hard C/K sound).

I'm still here; mostly just reading not really posting. Had my membranes stripped yesterday (09/08) and was scheduled for an induction on 09/16 if I haven't delivered by then. Really hoping to have this baby before the induction date, though!

I tried last night with no luck. Then, today I read that taking a warm bath can actually stop contractions! I never would've guessed that one! My midwife told me to go home and have lots of sex . . . DH was pretty pleased with that response. Guess I'll suck it up for another round or two [:P]

When I was induced with DS2, my midwife had me do nipple stimulation to bring on contractions. You can google it and find out specifics. Basically, just roll your nipples between your fingers, or rub them (even through a thin shirt) for a few minutes. You have to repetitive sets until contractions come on and continue. Just keep in mind that none of the techniques will work unless your body i...

I had mine stripped yesterday. My midwife said if it works, it will work within 72 hours. I was really crampy this morning and had lower back pain; thought for sure I'd be in the hospital by tonight. But, everything went away and I'm currently making dinner instead of delivering. :(

My midwife induced me with DS2. She wanted me to go into labor as naturally as possible and had me do nipple stimulation (I was totally mortified and embarrassed, but am actually glad I did this instead of meds). You have to rub your hands in a circle on your nipples for 20 mins, take a small break, and continue until contractions start and get stronger. If that didn't work she was going to start ...

Yep! We sold our house earlier this year and moved into a duplex until we can find a new house. Our duplex is only 2 bedroom, so this baby will be bunking with us for a while. DS1 starts kindergarten and DS2 starts preschool about 3 weeks before my due date. I just started my new job and am definitely not organized or prepared for maternity leave . . . nor have I saved any money for maternity leav...

We use Purex. I like the smell and the cost is much lower than other brands. I did see that they now have a fragrance and dye-free type. We tried a bottle and it did fine, but DH didn't like that it wasn't fragranced. I'll probably use it for the baby's clothing/laundry, though.

I'm also having the hardest time trying to find a coming-home outfit. Like you, I'm not sure whether or not to s/s or l/s. I'd like to get a dress, but will probably end up going with a sleeper.

I thought it seemed pretty big, too. But, most of the sites I found had baby/toddler quilts around this size. I probably won't actually use it for a twin-size bed (I'll definitely want to change by then), but since my grandma is making the set I wanted it a little larger for the baby to keep as a memento/keepsake. Hmmm, now off to do more research . . .

I'm incredibly jealous! All these outfits/dresses are adorable!! I don't mind bringing her home in a sleeper, but I just haven't found one that I *love*.

My grandma is making my crib set for me and I need to know what size of quilt to have her make. I've read a ton of different information about sizes and no one seems to have a "general" size. I'd like to be able to use the quilt in the crib, toddler bed, and twin bed (if possible). I was thinking 45"x60"; does this seem legitimate?

What about movie passes, pool pass, savings bond, etc.? Something she can do (with her family) instead of just another toy? I hate it when the boys get loads of crap from birthdays and holidays, so I much prefer when they get something they can use. Otherwise, I do like when they get things such as books, puzzles, movies, gift cards, outdoor/activity-type toys. Sorry, I'm not much help!...
