Had my last middy appt today.....baby very much down in the cervix, i can feel he/she pushing down. So last week i was 4/5 engaged....this week 1/5 engaged. Im feeling a little anxious, as you would with 2 days before EDD...but felt a little deflated this morning after discussion of induction was brought up, and the procedure, and a time booked in for an internal next week.....HUH ???? Can i least get to my EDD first......DH thinks im overreacting, but this is my 4th baby.....i KNOW my body can do this, ive only gone early with DD#3 (3 days early, others have been on or near EDD)......i said to midwife 'we dont need to book a time for next tues....coz i wont be there ' - meaning i would have already had baby, but she insisted....

I told mum. She is a nurse. She said public system have brought in induction plans/methods of late coz too many women were going over their EDD.....fair enough....but i cant help feeling a little flat now.....i soooo want to do this on my own, and i bloody well know i can, i want to scrap this mornings appt from my mind...but just cant....

Just a vent or something. Thanks for reading.....
