Me too! I'm devestated that she'll be born in november. Me and my husband's anniversary from the day we meet and our wedding anniversary are both in october. It's our favorite month.
I had really big plans for halloween birthday parties every year. I'll have to return her halloween costume now.

My doctor leaves tomorrow until monday. I'll be okay waiting until monday now. I don't want the other two doctor delievering. One needs to retire and one is new and inexperienced.

I really want my doctor to deliever.

Ava doesn't care though. She didn't care about what he said about coming early and she didn't give a shiit about her due date.
You can tell she doesn't care, look at her giving everyone the hand on the avatar picture. :d

she better be a cute, good baby for making me wait. Lol
i made my mom wait 10 days over her due date, so I guess this is payback.

My sister was worried her baby would be born on one of the many january birthdays that seem to be in my family.. My mum's is the 23rd, mine's the 26th and my dad's is the 29th (i was born right in between both Smile) but luckily the little lad popped out on the 28th.. So only just avoided sharing his birthday!

i was exactly the same way! Lol I really wanted one doctor over the other two. I was already about 4 days over due and she went on vacation for a few days. Then .I was o.K. Waiting. He came 9 days late and didn't have the doctor .I really wanted anyway. Enjoy the last few days you have of being pregnant. I know, it's easier said then done! Good luck!

Either I have her now and have a looney doctor or wait 6 more days and have my doctor.
Not like it's my choice, but if i'd have to choose, it would be tough.

Actually, the only thing my doctor did was come in and catch my baby. Oh, and stitched me up afterward. I think he might have controlled how much pitocin I was given, but he told the nurses and they did it.

The nurses helped me through my entire labor, and even through the pushing stage.

That's what I figured. He'd just give me the epidural and catch the baby.
But seeing my Dr. Would make me feel better.
