Should I wait to move ?

I am currently 12 weeks pregnant. I live in Alabama but I am planning on moving back to my home state (Washington). I just got approved for housing there and I am on a 5 month waiting list. I am due July 29th which is approximately 6 months from now. Should I wait until I have my baby to move even if they call me and say they found a place for me? It is a four day drive and I do not want to go in labor during this trip but moving back home is also my families best option for stability. I'm at a loss please help???

We have to drive. Me and my mom have cars. we're renting a uhaul that will pull her car and I will be driving my car while she drives the uhaul. We could possibly make it a 3 day trip with less stops and driving fast but I will be 8 months pregnant and don't think I will be able to cut out bathroom breaks and ofcourse we would have to stop to rest because we can't stat awake for three days straight

Hey I live in Alabama too :) but I agree with the comment above. Family is very important and it can be a big help! Just try to take it easy but I would go home if at all possible

If you can get someone to help you with your move and even travel with you then that would be great. Having family around when baby arrives is also a bonus. I'd say if you think you could cope then head on home. Just don't be doing anything too strenuous
