Long story lol my baby girl might have a possible heart condition and my dr wants her out as soon as possible to do some tests and have a x ray done on her chest and I've had a lot of trouble with preterm labor since around 23 wks so they don't expect her to go the full 40 wks anyway and I live 2 and half hrs away from the hospital so she doesn't wanna take any chances if it were my decision I would go all the way but I can't I'm surprised I made it this far anyway lol  but I'll be 38 wks when I deliver (:
