i dont think this baby is ever coming bleh

stupid question though, anyone who has already had their baby, if you check here anymore, could you tell me if you got really bad "hot flashes" before you went into labor

ive been getting really hot all of a sudden then after a while it goes away then it comes back....the only way i can describe it is a hot flash...and when it happens no one else is warm...its really annoying

Yay! I can't wait to see .valkyrie!!!!!! I hope she comes right on time! I bet you do too, between being tired of being pregnant and wanting to finally meet her! I had terrible hot flashes during pregnancy. It sucked. Maybe since you haven't had this earlier in pregnancy (not that I recall you saying anyways) maybe she's getting ready to make her appearance!

But mine didn't come right before labor....It was just throught the second and third trimester for me.

Ahhhh!!! Aliciaaaaa!!! I can't wait to see herrrrr!!!

I Have a feeling you'll go over!!

I know your interested in as drug free of a labor as possible...so are you willing to be induced?

I was totally against it as it's been said to make contractions un naturally intense. To force you to dialte quickly for the Dr.'s convienience. Stupid Dr.s!!

Oh, and have you thought of a doula being present at your labor?

bridget, well ive been feeling "off" for like the last 3 or 4 days now, so maybe, hopefully, soon

sarah, i really dont want to go over, but i have a feeling i will too, i swear shes doing it just to spite me lol, and i really really dont want to be induced, unless its like, shes 2 weeks over due and shes having problems that they can *prove* i will fight with everything i have not to be induced, but my doc seems to be ok with it, they dont really seem to want to induce unless its absolutly nessesary...i hope it stays that way, i know it can cause really bad contractions and it can even make the baby go into distress when they normally wouldnt have, makeing c-section more likely, and i *really really really* dont want a c-section

i have thought of a doula but i cant afford one which sucks, but the nurses at the hospital im going to are really helpful, so i think (hope) ill be ok
