Overdue, trying to keep my head up

Hayley • 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 💛💜💙 {baby 4 due in May}

Today I’m 40+5. I only went 2 days past my due date with my first before spontaneous labor started. Why won’t this baby come out of me??

I had bad prodromal labor for about 4 days and then nothing for a day and a half now. Every morning I wake up a little more frustrated and sad that I’m not in labor. I really don’t want to be induced. I spend so much time now stretching and walking and bouncing to try to get my body and baby ready. I’ve read so many articles about prodromal labor and going overdue. I’m not sleeping well at night because it’s keeping me up. And it’s really not that I’m miserable and tired of being pregnant, I’m just ready to have my tiny baby here in my arms.

I’m just tired of obsessing about it. And I’m tired of feeling like my body isn’t doing what it’s supposed to do. Sorry, just needed to vent. 😣😔😭
