Do you have a "cut off" date?...

mandiek72512 · July 2012

I know there is only just a few of us left.. I know a few of ya'll are even past due.. but does anyone have an official cut off date? My doctor is cutting me off next Friday. I would rather go until 42 weeks (if he won't come on his own) but apparently that's not the best option for us, health wise. Anyone else being cut off?

Very similar to SweetLittleThing... I'm due on 7/22, have my next appt on 7/25. If she's still not here by then, we'll be inducing on 7/30 (my dad's bday).

I'm due 8/1 and my last doc (i'm in a rotation of 5) said they'd induce as early as 8/8. Ughhh!! Doesn't "August 8th" sound light years away? 8/9 is my wedding anniversary......as much as I disagree with playing around with dates too much, I really don't want him to be born on our anniversary! haha I don't know why.....

My induction would be scheduled for 41 weeks which would be August 1st. Hopefully sooner, this is becoming B.S. ahahha

My induction is scheduled for next Wednesday night-- 41w, 2d by my doctor's edd. My edd (7/12) and my doctor's edd (7/17) have never synced up, so we've just always agreed to "mid July." She wanted to take me sooner, but that's 42w by my count. So we compromised.

Operation naturally evict spawn is in full effect. Acupuncture, acupressure, EPO, walking, birth ball... he'll come.

My midwife has never brought it up - I love her

My next appointment is at 40 weeks, 4 days, and if I'm there I'm sure it will be discussed. I'll push it as far back as possible as long as there are no health issues, so 42 weeks. But like I said, I haven't talked about it with my MW yet.

My doc is letting me go to August 1st. I really, really, REALLY don't want my July baby to turn into an August birth. the thought makes me want to cry. Because I want to VBAC, he says I am not a candidate for any induction before then.

christieep · July 2012

My doc told me on Tuesday that he doesn't want me going past 40 weeks (placenta issue) so I guess that means I will be induced next week. I wanted to wait it out but if there is a question my placenta can continue to support LO, I would rather have him outside where my milk can support him

Assuming nothing comes up, I won't be 'cut off' until 42w. I can't bring myself to type the date - it's basically MID August. Yak.

meagan.pilkington · July 2012

Sunday will be 41 weeks for me, and I have an appointment tomorrow so I think my doc will probably mention the "i" word and talk about the cut-off date. I also have an appt scheduled for next Wednesday though, so maybe she'll let me go until 42 weeks. We shall see...

As long as we keep passing biophysical profile and nst tests I get to go till 42 weeks. My due date is not even a guesstimate either since I did ivf.

JustAhopin · July 2012

I'll be induced Aug 3rd if he hasn't come yet.

I haven't talked about this with my dr but I won't allow him to induce unless medical reason or until 42 weeks...I think drs induce too often (I was induced with my first two early the first was medically necessary but the second I feel dr did it for convienance) this time I've been very vocal about wanted to go into labor on my own and my dr has been supportive.

RobinandDJ · July 2012

I am being induced July 30 at 41 weeks if nothing happens on its own. I am ready for baby to be here and getting impatient with my body for not having any progress. I'm dying in this florida humidity too! I'm hoping she will come on her own but I'm not opposed to an induction.

oncoRN · July 2012

August 1st, 41 weeks...only because I have a heart condition and it's controlled with a beta blocker so they don't want to fool around with waiting too long for the baby to come..especially since he will need to be watched closely for decreased heartrate and blood sugar for a few days!

JanieMD · July 2012

I'm due tomorrow but if Mister Little Man won't show up by himself, I will be induced on the 26th, at 40w6d. Seems a bit early to me since everything is going well with both LO and me but it feels good to have a date.

Max. 7 (almost 6!!!) days to go!

orange_roses · July 2012

My cut off is 42 weeks as long as we are both healthy - so that is August 3.
