Hi All!!
Read the messages by Avi,Vindhya.I am also depressed.My baby is also 2 weeks behind ,baby has dropped down 3 weeks ago,but no progress,the head has yet not got engaged,b.p is fluctuating,having very very bad pelvic pain,forcefully trying to walk at least for half an hour..the sob story list goes on and on.The doctor said first the due date will be nov 7th around,now she says it will be around 10-11th,and I am sure in my next visit,she is going to extend by few more days.Trying to have patience.
Jaya Vindhya replied. Hi Jaya,

My due date was moved right and left based on the ultrasounds. So, my doctor suggested that I should stick to the original due date based on my LMP. Since your due date was originally 11th, I would say not to worry about it. Infact one or two weeks doesn't matter. Ofcourse, we should not exceed 42 weeks.

Hope your fundal height meaurement is due to the baby's dropping or it's position. Be positive and I am sure everything will turn out fine.

I always go into depression mode after my doctor's appointment every Friday after hearing how many weeks the measurement is behind. Now, it has become a routine for me.

Hope you don't get stressed out on your measurement. Sorry to hear about your BP fluctuation & pelvic pain.

I am sure your baby will get engaged soon. Do follow your doctor's advice and keep walking.

Good luck,
Vindhya Avi replied. Hey guys...I totally feel you when it comes to going through all these problems, pains and waiting for the little one to be out safe and sound....
It is so darn frustrating when the doc keeps postponing the due date... I, like Ritu, feel like yelling at the doc to do a C-section and get him out now...
I guess, we just need to hold on till the babies are ready to come out....and reassure ourselves that he/she is growing in there with every passing day...

Simmi, hang in there for another week...you can than catch up on the much needed rest...

Ritu, I have the itching too...and it's all over and not just on my tummy....and at night I wish I could sleep sitting down cause sleeping on my sides is worse than sitting upright...Hang in there...your due date is just a few days away and even if you dont deliver by then you will only have a few more days after that....me, I have to wait till end of Nov if nothing happens by my due date... so relax and :)...
Enjoy the private time you get to have and bond with your baby...I am a loner myself and I'm having a tough time adjusting to having my mom and dad around and not having any time for myself alone....I know it sounds wierd, but I am so used to being by myself that it will take some time for to adjust to having them around 24/7...
Hope you get rid of the cold soon...

Jaya, hang in there...like Ritu, your due date is just around the corner...he/she will out soooon....


Simmi replied. Hi Jaya and Ritu.

I can relate to you. Me too having tough time coping with the terrible pelvic pain and back ache. Still at work so even tougher. Not driving though but the wait is getting exhausting. My doc too reckons I may go beyond my expected due date, so really getting impatient. Let's hope things progress smoothly for all of us real soon.

Good luck.
Simmi Ritu replied. Hi,

I am in the same boat. My due date is November 5, coming wednesday. While the baby is head down , the head still hasn't got fixed. My doctor said he feels I will be in his clinic for my routine check up on the 5th . Meanwhile unbearable itching, boredom and sleepless nights are killing me.
Every morning I feel like calling my doctor and asking him to do a c-section right away.

I have stopped driving now and am getting immensely bored at home. Hubby doesn't come back before 9:00 that is when he is back on time.He was never so busy but the last two months have been crazy. (naturally had to happen at this time).

I have just no patience left. Also I was feeling less movements so I kept drinking ice water and monitoring them as a result of which I now have a bad cold too..mummmmmmmmyyyy Ritu replied. Hi,
