I thought going to 42 weeks or so was normal? I know for me it is! I am going to tell him that if anything I will consider having him strip my membranes, but I would rather not be induced (esp if the only reason is a big baby~ I already KNOW I can birth big babies!). I feel conflicted though, b/c my mom starts chemo Monday. But she says she will be there when Myla is born even if she can only sit in a chair & give verbal support. She knows how I feel about 42+ weeks being normal b/c my brother was born at 42 weeks, 4 days (and the dr was surprised he was a big baby :eyeroll ) Anyways, we went on a long walk this evening & I have been taking the blue cohosh pellets & drinking RRL Tea, etc. My appt is at 11:20am PST tomorrow so please send me labor vibes (and vibes to stay strong against an induction!).
