I think it really depends on your job. My EDD was sunday the 20th and I'm still working, but I have a very nice boss and a low stress job. For me, it's a good distraction until the baby comes. I'm also in relatively good shape...

I'm so exhausted I cry at everything. I was upset this morning - I realized that since today is DH's birthday - if I don't go into labor I'm going to have to cook dinner! I'm being a huge baby about everything. Every day when I go...

I'm sorry if my post caused you stress. It wasn't meant to be, but I can see why you're worried. It sounds like you're getting helpful info from your midwife and that you're doing everything you can. I felt bad being the naysayer,...

My EDD isn't until the 20th, but I'm getting impatient with all of these March babies arriving. I'm afraid it will be April before I get to see her. Just feeling sorry for myself.
