a little reassurance?

Im just looking for a little reassurance from others with overdue experience. I was due yesterday. I have dialated to 3 and am thinned out a good bit. The doctor gave me the option of induction but I declined and said we would talk ab it at my 41 week appt. I want to give her a last chance on her own. Im still working and everyone at work keeps telling me all the things that could go wrong now making me really unsure of my decision. Ex shes going to be too big for a vaginal birth, swallowing feces, etc. The dr said since I do not have high bp or swelling and she is fine that there is no medical reason to induce. I wish everyone would have kept their opinions to themselves!

    Just ignore them. I think you made the right decision!!!

    You should have your membranes stripped to see if that

    helps at all.

    Good luck & hang in here hun

    I agree that you did the right thing. DD came 2 days late and there was no meconium in her amniotic fluid. Meanwhile DS came 4 days early and he DID have meconium in his fluid. And, he was only 3oz smaller than DD. So big babies and meconium are not limited to post due babies only.

    FWIW my friend gave birth at 42 weeks and her daughter was smaller than both of my kids!
