I'm here again - 9 days over

 

[eightball]

4 days until due date, and no hints that it'll happen soon.

Yesterday started the wave of phone calls asking me if the baby will be coming, as if I have a clue. I don't know what it was about yesterday but everyone seemed to have expected me to have some kind of news. My mum was even shocked that my next appointment was 2 days after my due date, she said 'but, what? That's a bit late, the baby will be here by then' as if the baby is promptly going to pop out midday on her due date.

eightball - you'll start getting emails, calls and texts every day, people calling up wondering which day they should book off work to come and see you... it's like "how am i meant to know!". my OH's mum had booked last week off work thinking it would come on it's due date, so she came down to see us and was a bit disappointed, and it's like, well you shouldn't have expected it to come exactly on it's due date then should you... duh.

Term + 5 today and still waiting. Having my sweep this afternoon fingers crossed it will do something. Eightball I get a phonecall from my mum-in-law everyday to see if I am still here as well as the regular calls and texts from everyone else.

10 days overdue now, induction is 2 days away but I'm getting pains still that are stronger than yesterday's, so hopefully I won't get to Sunday without my little effort coming out
