Advice from my sister-in-law

[moss]

My husband was speaking to his sister who had a baby under a year ago and she passed on some advice she got from her doula. It's simple, but a good idea. She was told to make plans to do something special a couple of days after your due date because babies are almost always late and at least this will give you something else to focus on. It worked for her because they chose something they always wanted to do (it was close to home and relaxing, though). Also, on the way there, she had her first contraction!

I had loads of stuff planned because I was convinced I was going to go overdue and then go nuts waiting. Waters broke 5 days before I was due - oh well!
