No really I am! I had my 37wk appt today and in a way it WAS progress b/c everytime I have a small petite lady doc check me , the next wk when a big male doc checks me he always says I'm less dialated...well he said I was definitely 2cm today. BUT my ultrasound showed what I'm scared of ... she has a big head

In the 80th percentile. Ok no need for anyone to try and say 'its your 4th baby in four yrs etc---your body can do it" I almost had a section with #3 and I'm nervous. Yeah maybe her head is big but isn't the square shape of Tirzahs and Azlans...I"M HOPING!!!!!!!!!!! He wouldn't strip my membranes today b/c my cervix was still 'long' but he says they'll do it next wk at 38wks for sure. SOooooo I need to just hang in there! She looked SOOOOO CHUBBY on the u/s pics!!! Omgoodness--she looked like a little chunk

But their weight estimates were only 6lb 5oz or something YEAH RIGHT my smallest was 8lb4oz ... i doubt they are right

SO yeah i'm just plain grouchy...my rib pain is soooooooooooooo bad.

She is just POUNDING me in the ribs and IT HURTS!!! sob LOL!

Hang in there!!! Try not to worry about the head. I'm sure that is easier said than done. You will do just fine and I'm sure you will not even have to cross the c/s road. Glad you got to see here today and she looks chunky and healthy:-) Glad you made some progress!!! Treat yourself to some ice cream. That always puts me in a better mood!!

I am sorry your apt did not go as you had hoped. I hope your have a fast safe delivery.....I would be scared too!!! I hope you go into labor soon and things go smoothly. I am getting sore ribs now too.....Mackenzie’s little feet keep getting caught up there.

Hang in there......HUGS!

I am so sorry you are at that totally uncomfortable point! I hope she comes soon for you, and that they were off measuring her head, and you will have a nice easy labor! GL

Sorry your appt wasn't what you hoped for. If it makes you feel any better, my baby's head is huge too! At least you aren't alone.... I'm with ya on the rib pain tho. I think his butt may have moved out of my ribcage today, tho so it seems to be hurting a bit less. Maybe she will do the same soon to give you some relief!

Awww...I'm sorry you are feeling this way. Just remember, you are strong and you can DO IT!! After reading about your other labor, I am confident you can handle anything.

I hope it is an easy one for you though, you definitely deserve a break!! Glad to hear your little girl looks so healthy though. Won't be too much longer and you will be holding her in your arms. Hang in there!!
