I think if I read another birth story, (except for Chelsea's b/c that's super exciting! Welcome to the world little Benjamin!) I'll cry...a lot. WHY can't my son be here already, and why is he waiting so long? What if something's wrong with him, and that's why he's not coming out? I'm never going to get to experience going into labor on my own b/c I'm convinced that even if I cancel my induction this week, that I'll be looking at an induction at 41 weeks...I just want my baby...I wish I could just have him right now. I hate that all the freakin family is on pins and needles waiting for him, and I just feel like I have enormous amounts of pressure to deliver the goods so to speak, and I can't....Why does my son hate me already? This isn't fair, I was born 4 weeks early and Daniel was 3 weeks early...what's wrong with Dawson that he isn't ready yet....I just want to be happy, and him to be healthy, but now I'm worried that there's a reason he's staying put, and I'm worried that he'll never come...and I just don't want to be pregnant anymore...

and to make matters worse, Daniel is working today, so no one to talk to about this. Not that he would understand anyway, he's convinced that 50 people need to be at the hospital literally waiting on Dawson to be born...ummm wrong...first of all, he's never coming out, secondly, I don't want a effin audience, third I don't want to share my son, how about that!

I'm with you...and I'm so sorry. Just think, if you can survive Dawson giving you crap now - you'll be AWESOME at dealing with it when he is 16!

Aw, Mandie, I'm sorry you are getting so stressed about Dawson's arrival. Just stay positive, it'll happen and I'm sure he's doing fine in there.

This is Jasmine from iV, in case you were wondering. :)

Do not cave to the pressure!! DON'T CAVE! It's your baby and everyone can KISS OFF because he really will come when he's ready. Bianca was 6 days late and SOOOO healthy!!

I'm sorry though. I'm only saying that because that's how I felt too - like everyone was tapping their toes. Just remember - they are only excited because they love you. SO tell 'em to stuff it.
