3rd Trimester
Umm.. this is crazy! (Due date change)
So, my OBYGYN appointment was rather enlightening yesterday. For one, I haven't made progress since my very first internal, so now, rather than thinking I'd be going early, they think I'm going to go late like I did with DD. Okay, no big deal, I'm not that worried about that. Well, THEN she tells me that they don't like for 2nd+ time moms to go past 41 weeks, so she'd like to go ahead and schedule my induction. (it may turn out that I don't need it, but I'll have the "slot" reserved, just in case, since my hospital only allows so many inductions per day) THEN, she says that my due date is the 3rd, so she was going to put in to have my induction scheduled for the 8th! This whole pregnancy I've been under the impression that my due date was the 9th, but according to my chart, I'm actually 6 days ahead of that. I'm definitely not complaining, but it was a pretty big shock! So, regardless of whether he comes on his own, or needs to be induced, I'll have a baby in my arms no later than 2 weeks from today!

Re: Umm.. this is crazy! (Due date change)
Tell me about it. There was a girl recently who posted about her due date changing, and I remember thinking, "Wow, that must be really shocking with her being so far along." Oh, the irony. The good thing is that this jump in dates has caused DH to start freaking about getting the rest of the "to do" list done.
That's a big change!
I just found out they wrote my LMP down wrong last week. I found out once I saw the disability papers they gave back to me. Granted, it's only two days difference but still...
Oh, I know. I'm not against inductions, though, especially after I've hit my due date.
