Grayton Kid turns 11 on Sunday!

[TripleB]

Update from the doc appt: NOTHING HAS CHANGED! For those of you who understand baby talk: 1 1/2c, and 60%. That's all I'm saying!

1 1/2 cups of what? oh...I see...nevermind.

Those numbers aren't bad at all.

Still could be a long time tho. However, this isn't her first. Don't they say that subsequent births are faster, or is that a myth?

Yes, it is a myth. Her first (GK) was a week late so they induced labor.
I was in labor longest with my 4th.

My second labor was faster than my first. Gravity helps alot...walk, walk and walk. I hate when they slap that monitor on and you have to stay in bed.

You're right, it could still be a long time...I went 2 weeks at 2c and 50% before I went into real labor. But I am certainly no expert on this topic. All I know for sure is as much as I love my kids I'm glad I'm past the delivery of them. Good luck mommy. Keep us posted.

I was in labor for 2 hours start to finish with my second! I was at the hospital for less than an hour! I barely had time to walk form the car to the admissions window!

I was also 2 weeks overdue! It was the quickest I've ever seen people move in the ER!

That is what I am afraid of...that I won't make it to the hospital before the birth. I will be in the room for the delivery if I make it in time.

Is this the same child that has a bad sense of direction? Holy cow!!! How did you manage to walk anywhere at that point? I bet you did cause a stir in ER.

My friends husband was a stickler for not letting them eat in his new car. They couldn't even use a drive thru for the food. He didn't want it in the car. She delivered her second baby in the car at the entrance of the hospital. ALMOST made it!

Everyone was fine except the car. Funny, he lets them eat in the car all the time now.

This is the one!

I was, shall we say not upright at that point! GTTBD, actaully dropped me off and went to park the car! The Dr. barely made it! I got to the hospital at 7:40 and delivered at 8:21! The lady in the room adjacent to mine had a fit! She had been there for 23 hours. I guess she thought it was like the take-a-number at the deli! :rofl:
