It's not fair!

Doctors, my mom, and everyone have always told me since 36 weeks "oh it can happen any time now" which isn't fair. Cause all it does it put you in this mind set that it is literally gonna happen any time now. My midwife should at least be realistic with me and say whether or not she thinks it will be soon or late. I'm almost 39 weeks. And I think he's gonna be late. But oh, just means a chubbier cute baby :)

That's why I'm not gonna worry when my due date comes. If you go past it you get more impatient. When people ask me my due date I tell them I'm due in July I never give the day because they make you more anxious if they no your close to the day..lol

I think the "due date" should be at 42 weeks... That way it doesnt feel so bad when your due date passes on top of everyone saying "oh anyday now" lol
