what's worse than going past your due date?
the things people say to you when you go past your due date:
"omg, you haven't given birth yet??"
"is that baby ever going to come out?"
"wow, you're so big! "
"she must really like it up there"
"how are you still able to walk?"

Tell them "She doesn't want to come out and have to put up with people like you!"
On a side note...I'm so excited for you!!! I'll be stalking for updates the next couple of days- good luck!

Re: what's worse than going past your due date?
 My SIL was a week late and was sooo frustrated but I told her Henry just really loved his Mama and didn't want to leave quite yet. I can imagine it is so annoying to hear comments from people! Try to hang in there - they all come out at some point!!
....I just made two annoying comments didn't I? I'm sorry!

Re: what's worse than going past your due date?
I'm still a day away from my due date and have been hearing that for the past 2 weeks! ( Except ive gotten comments on how little i am, which is its own soecial kind of annoyance!). And I've also got the occasional, " it better not be Christmas Eve" from my mil, who does the whole big Italian fish dinner!
Best of luck, keep us updated!

as someone who went late with #1 ... shake it off and enjoy the last few days Sleep, eat, get a pedi with massage. Go out with DH  just enjoy it because life is about to change in a big way!
It WILL be over before you know it.

lol. i don't mind it coming from anyone on here. it's the randoms at work that i barely know who's comments annoy me. (and yes, i'm still working in my office which is leading to all the comments)

Re: what's worse than going past your due date?
"OMG you're still pregnant!" Ummmm yeah, that is what happens when you are pregnant and do not yet have the baby... you remain pregnant.
And we are talking about a day here... it isn't like it is three weeks later!
Honestly I don't blame her, it is cold out!

I have heard the "you don't even look pregnant from the back" which is a weird compliment I suppose and then someone said to me that it's a shame your boobs didn't get any bigger... I actually laughed at them I just found it really funny there were people concerned with my boob size!! 
Lisa's family makes super adorable babies so this littel girl is just perfecting her look.
These comments coming from people at work have to be super annoying because I am sure this is the last place you wanted to be the day after your due date.

Ahh... Thanks Gina! My niece and nephew were actually born 12/26 and 12/24 respectively, so maybe this one wants to be smack in the middle on xmas? Pretty funny timing for a bunch of jews :)

Re: what's worse than going past your due date?
I went to 42 weeks with my daughter Most of the torture came from my midwife who was forcing me to drink 2 bottles of castor oil in hopes of self inducing ( worst idea evaaah! lol) along with all the annoying things that dont work- lesson learned is they come out when they are ready and feel like it . Just praying this one doesnt intend on overbaking as well

Yeah I've definitely been getting unsolicited suggestions on how to move things along. One of my co-workers has been trying to get me to take primrose oil, but I'm opting to stay away from supplements and stuff. Too scary in my opinion.

Yeah none of that stuff works. Honestly the thing that i think made my water break...Nipple tweaking! My midwife made me do it all day ( ouch!) but it does indeed cause contractions and my water broke that night.
