40+2 and trying to still be patient. Doctor didn't think I'd make it to this next appointment but apparently my little girl is trying to prove him wrong.
Curious, @lulu85_18, did you just not want to be induced? I can't imagine waiting two extra weeks.
I was 42 weeks when I gave birth to my first son. Hang in there.
My doctor did a membrane sweep in the morning and I went into labor at night. Did your doctor mention that as an option?
@kirstin678 thanks so much momma!
Wow way to hang in there! After a couple false alarms at 34 and 36 weeks, mentally I could barely make it to my 39 week induction. Here’s to hoping today is the day! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?

Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
I'm still trying to get a feel for this app but are there any STAHM here?

My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
Do Not Post TMI Photos in this group!!!
This is a group of ladies that are kind, encouraging, understanding and caring of any problems you may have ttc. You can ask all the questions you want, if this group is capable of answering, we will do so. But this group does not appreciate the TMI photos. We will report them. So if you seriously need to post a picture of your bodily fluids, please do so in another group. We are not trying to be rude we are just trying to keep this group clean and happy.
@mamadrick, yeah, personally I didn’t want one. I wanted a natural labor and I was so worried that if I was induced, I wouldn’t be able to handle the pain. It was just personal preference. My doctor finally talked me into scheduling an induction, did a membrane sweep the same morning, and I ended up having my son that night. My induction was actually scheduled for the following morning at 6 a.m.
