Where are my Dec/Nov overdue or nearly due ladies??

I know there must be some November mommies left who are just waiting...

And I'm a Dec (5) girl who's 3 days overdue and can't WAIT to meet my !

I have an appointment on Thurs where we'll see what the progress is and schedule an induction if necessary. As of last Thurs my cervix was softening but no dilation.

HOWEVER.....I did start with some bloody show tonight (that might be the grossest word ever, sorry TMI!)! So that's a start. Didn't lose the whole thing but it's starting...and it's gross! (p.s. not sure if it's called mucous plug or bloody show or both - living abroad totally confuses me sometimes - I can never remember which country calls it what!!)

How are we all doing?? Come on out, babies!!!

You're on your way! 80% of first timers will deliver ate but within 8 days of their due date. I'm not sure which term is grosser "Bloody Show" or "Mucous Plug". Either way, the visuals on both are pretty graphic....but nonetheless, congrats to you on your "performance".

PS: Due tomorrow. We'll see!

Ooh, sending you progress vibes!

I was 5 days late with DS. Went to the doctor when I was 3 days late and there was NOTHING... no dilation or effacing. The next morning my water leaked and I went to the hospital that evening! So it is possible to go from nothing to something overnight!


I am due tomorrow so I am almost in the same boat as you! Just waiting, fielding the calls asking me if I am in labor yet! Taking my patience pills!

Hang in there!!!! One way or another, you will have your baby soon!

I am due tomorrow and i really don't think this baby is in any rush to come out!

I go to the bathroom 25 times a day and i am dying to see if i'm losing my mucus plug ( )....but NOTHING!

I haave a Dr.'s appointment on thursday and hope to get some good news!

Hope everyone is feeling great!
