As time goes by, I guess I am more nervous than ever before. I have to go see the doctor every week which reminds me I can 'pop' anytime now. The doctor also ensures that she is ready to come out, just wait for the right moment, I guess. My last visit kind of makes me realize about birth plan. Though I don't have anything super special for the labor, it is wise to discuss with your doctor about what he/she prefer and if he/she will be on vacation around your due date or not. I guess I am not that lucky since she will be on vacation on both weekends before and after my due date. I know that somebody will definitely be there to deliver my baby, but I would feel better if the one who has been taking care of me for the last 9 months will be the one who do the job.
Also, the doctor said that we shouldn't wait longer than a week after the due date because it will not be good for the baby. Even though I trust her on that, I still want my baby to come out whenever she is ready, not because I am induced. The idea seems normal and fine to many people, but for me, I'd rather wait at least a little bit longer than just a week. I have heard many people deliver their babies longer than a week after their due dates. But, who am I to argue, the doctor should know best, right? So I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the little one would like to come and play before that one week deadline and on weekdays so that her mother can at least see one more familiar face on the big day.
