I remember with every pregnancy how slowly the last month seemed to creep by. I get so excited hearing of possible labors and births with you all, I'm so happy to have found everyone and can live vicariously though you until it's my turn I just know this last month is going to drag. This pregnancy has flown by, of course, until NOW Just wanted to say goodluck to everyone and I LOVE hearing updates, and am so excited for you guys ---- almost as much as I am for me! lol Enjoy the last few weeks/last month as much as we can and lets keep each other entertained. I'm so busy at home but it still doesn't take away the fact that I am getting anxious now!

Funny cause just last month I thought "oh I'm not ready, I am glad I have 2 months left".

Some days it definitely does drag...! I too LOVE hearing everyones birth stories, etc...it makes it seem a bit more imminent (like it actually might be here soon) for me too.

My whole pregnancy has been dragging I love hearing birth stories & seeing pictures of the little ones. But I cannot wait until mine to be over so I can hold her!

Oh yea now that I am less than 3 weeks from my induction day it just seems to be dragging by but we don't even have the nursery finished lol DH and I put the wall stickers up last night right before bed and I just need to get him motivated to move the furniture....but I don't think that I will have a problem seeing as he thinks that I will go into labor before my induction lol

I completely agree that the last month just drags. The worst is if you actually go overdue! Yikes! As of right now, I have 4 weeks, but if baby takes his time, I could have up to six. The wait is killing me!!!!

I can't believe how fast it has gone by. But now it seems to be slowing down. Once DF and I get in the middle of moving downstairs and rushing to get the nursery set up it's going to go very fast I hope! I'm so excited for him to come, I just really can't wait to hold him and snuggle him.

I agree the last month is the longest. I'm also glad to hear everyone else's experiences throughout. Still lots to do so hopefully I can get motivated and keep my mind off the little aches and pains and BH contractions that seem to make me think he will be here sooner rather than later. Hard to not get excited when you feel pains that are normally the onset of labor. Hope to hear some good birth stories from you ladies soon!

This is really feeling long for me since I only made it to 33 weeks last time. I never had time to really think about getting to the end. I am glad that he is still in but the thought of going to 39 weeks feels like forever!!

Oh, I know! I'm not a big fan of the waiting game. When you're full term and everything is set up and ready there's nothing to do! I'm just aching to have my little girl!

I thought I was going to come home with my little girl sometime this week, that doesn't happen to be the case! Now I'm even more depressed to know that my hospital doesn't even have the "full-term at 37 weeks" thing.

They won't help along with anything unless you're AT LEAST 39 weeks, how weak is that?!

This pregnancy has gone by so quickly and then I had all the drama with him not being head down at almost 37 weeks. Now I'm so anxious for him to be born and I know that these next few weeks will seem like forever until he gets here!

yes this pregnancy flew by, but now time is dragging. i packed my bags, the baby's bag, my kids bag (for the sitter) and now time seems to have slowed dramatically lol. i went through a post-partum magazine ('mom and baby') and read the about the healing process after the baby is born and i am so not looking forward to that. but holding my little bundle of joy supersedes that pain.

praying for healthy babies for us all! and keep the beautiful April babies coming. i love the birth stories as well.

The closer I get the longer the days, and yet this was by far my fastest pregnancy in feeling.

I was really worried that nothing had been done, I was still working, the house was a mess and baby was still transverse, that was 3 weeks ago!! Now I am on maternity leave, shes head down, the house is super tidied and the new flooring is done, cleaned and ready. All her clother are washed and put away, just need to finish painting one wall in her nursery and wash the crib sheets. And I have 3 MORE WEEKS OF THIS!! and DH is away from 7am till 8pm every day including weekends!!
