Me and my husband kept saying that we didn't want LO to come Aug 4th, it is our wedding anniversary. Well wouldn't you know that we are now sharing our anniversary with LO
She can come when she wants... BUT I have high hopes of making it to the Iowa State Fair and eat eat eat!!! It starts the 13th (EDD) so hopefully she feels like holding off until later that night or the next couple of days!!!
My mother-in-law is coming to town on Saturday (the 15th). We don't have any family locally and she's going to watch our daughter while I'm in the hospital. Just don't come until Saturday afternoon, baby! I've been worried about that for weeks. My sister's birthday is on the 19th, which would be exactly 39 weeks for me. I wouldn't mind if she was born on that day, but I'd rather she have her own birthday.
I'm kind of weird. I'm just hoping Baby comes on an even day. I'm the 16th, hubby's the 24th, DD is 6th... I just kind of feel weird about having an odd birthday in our family.
I have finals until the 15th - I'm not due until the 27th and I'm pretty confident she'll stay put for a while but I really can't go into labour this week. Just 2 more finals & I can breathe! Not many August birthdays on either side of our families so she'll more than likely have her own day
We close on our house tomorrow, and move this weekend... So I'm praying LO waits till that is done! Preferably even later to let us unpack and settle in!
Also, I've been saying I feel guilty, but don't want to share our anniversary on the 18th. I selfishly would want it to be a special day for my husband and I, not one we'd share for the rest of our lives... But if she does come, I know it'll be the best anniversary gift even though I don't see it that way now.
My step daughter is flying In for her 2 weeks summer visit with us on the 20th, I and due the 26th but would love to have baby before step daughter comes. This way we can do all the fun stuff that invokes walking around that I just can't do right now. Also go camping. If baby comes on the 20th hubby HAS to be at the airport cause she is flying as an unaccompanied minor and he had to show his id or she gets sent back, no way to change that now it's to late. Also if babe come after I will have 2 kids at home while I labour and that the sitters will have to look after.
I feel so Selfish for not wanting her to be part of the labour but honestly I think she is going to be a huge pain, she gets upset when plans change of she doesn't get her own way.... Hopefully the sitters we have will be able to keep her entertained. I have this nagging feeling I am going over due by 2 weeks and it's going to ruin her visit because we won't be able to venture far from home. There's some islands that belong to France off the coast of our island and we would love to take her there so she can say she went to France!!!!!!
Due the 19th, but our fourth wedding anniversary is the 20th. DH said if she comes on our anniversary, we will just a pick a day and for the next 18 years, tell her that's her bday. I think he was joking. But you never can tell.

My husband says that we can switch our anniversary to when we met
I'm the opposite. I'm hoping the ONLY day he comes is the 15th, which is my actual due date. The 15th was my Dad's birthday. He passed away almost 8 years ago. Having my little man without having my daddy here would complete me. But, really? What are the chances of having him ON his due date?
Yep! There's actually many days in August that I'm hoping baby doesn't arrive. One was the 5th which is our anniversary. Today, the 12th is another because it is an ex's bday too. Then there are family bdays on the 18th & 26th. My bday is actually the 20th, and I wouldn't mind if baby and I shared a bday (but my hubby does). I'm due the 19th.
Re: Do NOT come today baby...
