My doctor actually changed my due date to July 26th. I have only been seeing him for a month and a half. My other doctor in WA state put me continuously at July 23rd. My current doctor is just going by his first ultrasound not my first or subsequent ultrasounds at the other doctor's office. Keep in mind that I have had about 8 ultrasounds prior to my move. Not that the baby comes during the due date but they are using that date to schedule the c section. The doctor refuses to have a c section scheduled prior to July 20th. I still say my due date is July 23rd as my prior doctor would so I am personally keeping with that date.

When you are in pain and can hardly walk, the earlier date is just better to handle psychologically speaking. I am sure people who are due around the same time can completely relate to what I am saying. I know I may sound completely immature right now talking about a three days difference. It really does sound dumb and even as I write this, I can't believe what a deal I am making out of it..... for some reason it is a big deal....must be the hormones.

I haven't had a lot of pelvic pain today and can walk more. My abdomen is still sore from yesterday. The baby is extremely active. I guess he is just not ready to come. He still has three weeks to cook and he probably needs it. I will just have to deal. It will be all worth it.


I personally can't stand my doctor because he just seems so arrogant. He is one of those extremely mouth drooling good looking doctors who seriously acts like he knows it all and lacks in bed side manner. There are three other doctors who share the same office and they are all so very nice. I tried to change doctors at the beginning but for some reason it just didn't work. Grrr..

My goodness, I completely sound like a little kid right now!! Forgive me!

I am so glad my mother is here to help out. It has been a little difficult being the mother I should be to my other child while dealing with the last weeks of pregnancy. I completely respect those who have a child or more and have to do it on their own due to circumstances!!

Thanks for reading my completely immature rant. I am a sad sad case right now.

You don't sound childish or immature, trust me I get how you're feeling ... in the grand scheme of things 3 days is a HUGE deal when you've gone through 9 months of hell.
I'm 3 day's overdue and can't stop crying.
I feel so silly and childish to, I have an appointment today and we are scheduling my inducement, and I'm pretty sure he won't schedule it until next week... and everytime I think about going until next week I get 50% devastated and 50% infuriated.
I want them to say "ok tomorrow!"

When are they scheduling your c-section , if he doesnt want to do it prior to July 20 ask him for July 21st.

I know what it's like to have a kind of arrogant doctor, Mine is a great doctor but's he's a big fat know it all and it drive's me incredibly nut's... he's very close minded and doesn't even dicuss things!
but truthfully I wouldn't have anyone else deliver my daughter... he knows what he's doing , thats for sure!

hiya

Do you have SPD?

I have this and am currently 28wks preg.

You are not alone in being sad, infact all this evening I have not stopped crying. My Son is 2 and is constantly @ Grandma's because mummy is poorly.

I really hate it, I was so bad this afternoon, got stuck on kitchen floor and was just crying and crying, he is staying at Grandma's this evening but I feel so guilty.

Should be making this time special before the baby comes but cant because of the pain i am suffereing.

Rubbish I know, just wanted to let you know you're not alone. (((HUGS)))
