I'd get calls with people saying things like "When are you going to have that baby already?" (as though I was holding back just to inconvenience them) or "So, Friday would be a good day to have your baby..." (um, okay, I'll schedule it in, I guess?)<br /><br />No day can go by as slowly as a day that's past that 40-week mark.Meagan Francishttp://www.thehappiestmom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24166676.post-40307696504209330482009-08-07T18:04:57.674-04:002009-08-07T18:04:57.674-04:00Leah was three days overdue...I remember riding to...Leah was three days overdue...I remember riding to the hospital VERY early in labor and telling my husband that he better be ready to start knocking people out because if they told me it was "false labor" and to go back home, there was going to be some VIOLENCE!!Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04228772289039328569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24166676.post-86315926836713916832009-08-06T21:14:32.740-04:002009-08-06T21:14:32.740-04:00=) and Heather - I remember both of your situation...=) and Heather - I remember both of your situations very well.

At first I thought, well this is just my luck, ha ha funny, ok lets get on with it. That was 5 days past my due date.I can't even explain my mental state, when I finally went into labor on my own, 10 days after, and 1 day before my scheduled induction. It's just not fair!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02824772079476367648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24166676.post-40618797908229601862009-08-06T12:09:38.937-04:002009-08-06T12:09:38.937-04:00And then there are those whackos like me who are d...And then there are those whackos like me who are determined to go PAST their due date, PLAN on it rather, and end up waking up with their water breaking and not a contraction to be seen days before being due. I know, you hate me for that one. <br /><br />And with Turk I freaked out with having to be induced early for medical reasons because I really had another timeline in my head! <br /><br />Thanksfully we have that mommy amnesia or would anyone EVER have more than one child?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07821452597779129538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24166676.post-65163640200961827112009-08-06T11:12:29.248-04:002009-08-06T11:12:29.248-04:00I've said often that around week 38 I was read...I've said often that around week 38 I was ready to do my own c-section with an exacto knife.<br /><br />It's SO hard!<br /><br />I gave birth at 40 weeks, 1 day.
