Here we are. 40 weeks +2 days.... I have a doctor's appointment on Tuesday and I won't lie - I am not looking forwards to it in the slightest.
Being a hopeful VBAC I know that the pressure is going to start as soon as I see him. The talk of uterine ruptures as the baby just grows bigger and bigger, the pressure for monitoring, and yes, the dreaded repeat Caesarian section...
Ugh.
Perhaps I am anticipating the worst? I don't know. I guess we'll see how we go. I do know that the hospital I am booked in with will be happy to 'let' me carry the baby to 42 weeks, but I can't see my doctor being comfortable with that at all. Which really isn't helpful at this point!
Extra stress - I do not need.
I'm keeping my chin up however. My body is ready, this I know. Every baby, every pregnancy is different. That's what I'm sticking too!
xxx,
b.
