1 week

in 3rd Trimester
Today is my ultrasounds due date, tomorrow is my conception due date.  I have 1 week to give birth or they will induce me! I want to do it on my own.  Im sure I will but its the added pressure is worrying me a little.  My son came two days after his due date I hope this one will too which would mean that this baby is born on its brothers birthday.  Im so anxious to hold my baby.  Sigh I wish I had some sort of control or just no worries.  I want to avoid induction so bad.

    Good luck to you and here's hoping you go into labor on your own.  I know lots of people have induction fears, but i was induced with my first and had a good experience.  And i can still say that after i had to be induced TWICE in order for her to finally make her arrival. (stubborn little girl).  I certainly hope you go on your own, but in the event you have to be induced, try not to be too upset.  Again, for me it was a relatively good experience.

    Good luck to you. My 1DD, my water broke the night before my EDD and still had to be induced. I really hope this one is relatively close with EDD as well. The induction wasn't bad at all!!

    It is so hard not to have control. I am up against the clock too. I have to deliver by the 5th (2 days before my due date) or I will be induced due to GD. Both my other babies were over a week late so it doesn't look good for me. Sending labor dust your way!!

    Imagine yourself going into labour and don't think too much about the induction. Sometimes, we get what we focus on so maybe you can will yourself to go into labour :)

    Best of luck!

    my body doesn't like the meds and I want to do it all myself ll I'm a control freak with my body. I just want to be natural.  I do not like meds, nor take them.  Pregnancy and labor is not an illness nor a medical situation its a time for a woman to let nature take over and wow themselves with what they can do.  

    Thanks everyone still nothing but hopefully this week.  my appoint is wed 41 weeks so if I don't deliver before then I will reluctantly let her strip my membranes as a last resort before meds  I had natural with my son and he came two days late.  maybe tomorrow...tick tick lol so anxious.
