due in five days

So I've decided to have the baby at my parents house (queens) but i have an appointment on Monday at the doctor which I've been going to from the beginning (upstate) so do i go to the doctor here on Monday or just wait until i start to have the baby and just go to the hospital?

Maybe call your doctor and talk to them about what might be the best. Your doctor may not recommended travel this late in your pregnancy. I live down state in Michigan, but I'm sticking with my obgyn upstate, so she suggested staying here (my parent's house) for a couple weeks before hand. Especially with the weather, that seems like the perfect plan. But I'm not unemployed, so that makes it easier for me. So I guess my advise would be talking to your doc/midwife.
