Hi everyone! Well I am 39 weeks and 1 day! Inducment is only 6 days away Smile anyhow.. Ive been havin contractions that cause cramping pains in my lower back and low stomach all day again. .But their far apart. . On average about 20 minutes. (sometimes 15 minutes and sometimes a little further) also.. I just noticed (sorry, these next 2 part are gross) I just noticed some weird discharge, but not alot or anything, only a little, it was stringy and mucosy like described when losing the mucous plug but it wasnt that because it was only a tiny bit and no blood streaks or anything either. Do you think this is because im just slowly dialating more? Also.. I still havent went to the bathroom normally in 2 weeks now! (u know, kind of like diareeah like I told u b4) so this must just have to do with how the baby is, and me getting closer to my due date. Anyhow.. Thats basically it but I think its gettin close, I wonder if I will make it till thursday! I hope so, I dont wanna go b4!

It sounds like it could be your mucous plug who knows but I know that at the very end of your pregnancy that women are supposed to experience alot more discharge lol u had me gaggin over your "stringy" discharge rofl ever since ive been preggy things like buggers and cum make me sick ewwwwwww rofl im sick I know lol anyhow about ur loose bowels I thought I was weird cuz every time I get my braxton hicks immediatly after it's gone, I get very bad diahrea- cant spell it lol . I still need to ask my doc about that I go again this tuesday ill be 35 weeks yay. But yeah I know what its like the other day in a matter of 2 days it was awful me and eric went to walgreens and in the middle of looking around I had to have him take me home cuz I thought I was gonna go in my pants and then the same thing when we were eating at big boys lol I have this phobia about using public restrooms! Well kari good luck to ya hun. I hope you've stopped work by now, really relax only 6 more days or sooner!!!! ~ erica.

Hey do you remember the pics that jordan posted for me back in april? Ive gotten hugeeeeee in all areas since then. I sent jordan a message askin her if I can mail her some more pics of me lol cuz i'd feel safe doing it that way. Id screw something up if I got it on a cd and tried myself . So if shes ok with that then you guys will be seein some of me very soon. I have to get them on here so you all can see what I look like again . Big difference. My stomach is completly covered in stretch marks! Sad only 39 more days for me! Whenever I tell people when im due they look at my funny cuz im so damn big lol but ah well. Rest tonight I think you might have him sooner than thursday but who knows. Take it easy. ~ erica.
