jealousy

so me and my friend are due 9 days apart in our pregnancies she was due june 14 and me june 23rd both we boys all our symptoms have been so much alike that our families have started calling our babies separated twins well we each had a doctor appt this past Tuesday as always my doctor did nothing but listen to my baby's heartbeat...and when I spoke to her she told me her doc checked her cervix and she is 3cm and is inducing her because her baby is already so big she gets to have her baby next Thursday....I'm happy for her but totally bummed and pissed that my doctor didnt take the time to do anything and my baby is the same size as hers....I know I'm beinfe silly but it really bugs me

Ur friend must have other health risk cuz they wouldn't induce her this early because of baby size. So just be patient ur time coming but I can imagine ur frustration

You baby gets to bake longer! It's better for them to stay in as long as possible and I don't understand why they are taking the baby out so early. Just because the baby is big doesn't mean it's fully developed. Babies aren't considered full term until 37 weeks and that's when they have full lung development.  Your baby will definitely be better off coming out later, don't be jealous. Yes everyone will get to see her baby first but yours comes second and will steal the show :)

I can understand. Enjoy your time being pregnant and forget about other people. It is about you, remember.  Today my baby is 4 weeks old. I am enjoying being a mum, but miss the baby inside me. good luck darling xx
