OT: Guess the date and time that Colson39's (Chris & Beth) baby will be Born!!!

[loriandmatt]

see....the problem there was that it was your first born....had you already had one you would have known better than to go tent camping and sleep on what amounted to a sheet of wax paper when you were that far along. We all live and learn, don't we?

i worked up until i delivered my first....with #2 i knew what to expect and therefore said "see ya" two weeks before my due date. i knew i would not be able to concentrate. (hell, i could barely stay awake long enough to answer e-mails)

now the cankle thing....that took me by surprise. #1 was born in Feb. Cold Cold COLD. #2 was born in July. i retained so much water i was pretty sure i could hear sloshing when i walked.

How exciting!!!

i had cankels from hell. the swelling was so bad that i couldn't fit into any of my shoes. even flip flops - the straps over the top of my feet were cutting in. seriously. i looked like aunt marge from the third harry potter movie. We resorted to a cheapo pair of velcro strapped shower shoes just to get me back and forth from the doc appts and the hospital.
- lori

ME TOO!!! My DH is convinced that's where the saying "barefoot and pregnant" came from!! I couldn't even wear Tevas - the velcro wasn't long enough to get around my ankle or over the top of my feet!

OMG I resemble that! My first was born July 31 and we went camping a couple weeks before she was born....in a tent.....on thin mats...... ok, I'm better now. Anyway, the photos from that trip make me want to cry. I had tree trunks for ankles! I swore I'd never be pregnant in the summer again!

My second DD (the one that not only caused the cankles, but also the lovely melasma/chloasma that still haunts me to this day) has the same birthday as your first DD

I have melasma, too. You mean I can blame that on my DD?


Oh gosh! Maybe we should move this conversation! We will completely freak out Beth and Chris!

 

[Dis Dawg]

This is my guess. Colson39's baby will be born after Beth is dilated to 10cm and pushes like Hell! What did I win?

..It is my guess that the new member of the Colson family will arrive on the first day of the rest of it's wonderful loved life. Mr.

I won't tell you then my Dr. thought I would deliver early and DS didn't arrive until 5 weeks after his due date!!! He didn't want to induce me. Did stress tests 3 times a week and everything seemed normal so, he said lets just let things go naturally, it's your first. We had no problems everything was fine. Just wasn't his time yet. When DS #2 came I think Dr realized I carried both of them very low, so he didn't even say anything about being early and he was.

I have a July 31st baby too. He was born during a heat wave in '95. Guess where his first trip was? WDW of course when he has 6 weeks old. We weren't campers at the time but we did have the comforts of OKW in a 2 bedroom unit.

Where has Colson39 been??????????

 

[Colson39]

lol, I'm here, are you talking about where was I at the end of last year? If that's the case, I just had a small break from the forums for a couple months (but came back around February), no worries, I'm back with a vigor

So the latest update is that she feels a lot more pressure, all I can think of now is a volcano, is that bad?? lol

WDW at 6 weeks! Brave! Better to break them in early though!!!!



Chris~ pressure means he's dropping! It will be April 8 for sure!!!!!

July 31st babies are good, but not like those born on 7/30.

 

[PolynesianPixie]

I'd have to disagree

 

[bxtx]

July babies are great (that' s me) but AUgust babies are beautiful as I had 2 of my boys then!

I am guessing APril 11th, 3:03am.

As a mom of 3 who's had 3 very different births, just remember when "they" (i.e. Drs) want to interfere with nature's well proven way to use your "BRAIN"

• Benefits - what will this intevention get you?
• Risks - what the risks (best way to get rid of dr!)
• In what time - when doe you have to make a decision?
• Alternatives - what else can we try?
• Nothing - what happens if you do just that?

Good luck!

I would have to agree with Ami

 

[loveDmouse]

I am putting in a new guess. (I didn't see any rules that I couldn't after my time went by )

I say Monday, April 7 @ 2 am!

 

[Gillian]

April 8th sounds good to me also, because 8 is a good number, but I'm going to say Monday the 6th, early morning.

I think I win - DS was born at the end of September so I had to go through 4 months of summer!

And we went to Disney World that July, but didn't camp.

 

[PolynesianPixie]

Bumping! Is it today??????

 

[loveDmouse]

I think my last guess is right and he just has been too busy to get on and let us know the good news.
