One more day to go and Julianna is evidently still content to remain inside of me. I’ve always been enormously afraid of labor, so I guess the good thing about possibly going overdue is that I’ll just want it so badly I’ll forget about the pain I’ll be facing. Andrew and I went to see “Enchanted” at the movies last night … during the movie, I had a round of contractions which I hoped might lead to something, but they petered out after an hour. I understand these practice contractions are supposed to be preparing my body for labor, but why are my stats (baby not descended, 0 dilation and only a little effaced) so poor? I guess I’ll have to wait until Tuesday’s appointment to see if I’ve made any progress.

About
I'm Jennifer, a part-time pianist, graphic designer, web developer and full-time mother of two. I live in the seacoast of New Hampshire.
I had another round of contractions last night, too, but they stopped after an hour. They’ve been picking up this morning again, though.
That’s great, Karli – I’m crossing my fingers for you!
Still nothing…how about you? Congrats on reaching your due date! –Karli
Good Afternoon! Just checking in to see if Julianna had decided to make her appearance! Good Luck for the weekend!

Dear Jenny – I can’t imagine what it’s like to be in your shoes now. Still, please don’t worry too much about your due date – which are notoriously inaccurate to begin with! See here => http://pregnancy.about.com/cs/duedates/a/duedates.htm
According to that article, I’ll be expecting a St. Valentine’s Day baby instead of a Groundhog Day baby!
Best of luck, and here’s hoping that Julianna decides to mosey on down soon!
Don’t worry, she’ll be here soon!!!!!
I’m so excited for you.
