Can't believe how many people are surprised at me being 'overdue'...

[onthefly]

on average I think most do
The next thing is "omg haven't they induced you yet?"

[Mrs Jak]

Yeah, or 'Oh you're still here?', 'No baby yet?', 'Jeez you've dropped'...

Not that it really bothers me though, but I felt like a bit of a 'freak' when total strangers were looking me up and down at the shops the other day! Must have been the fitting maternity dress and my bump is way out in front like a big basket ball

[~Trish~]

Gah, I hated all those comments. I got them three times over because I went overdue 100% of the time haha! It's not like bub actually understands dates yet .

At least you know you don't have much longer to go

[Mrs Jak]

Hi Trish, yep this is my 3rd overdue baby as well I think these kids just get too comfy

[Jas]

You know the one i HATE the most....how long will they "LET" you go. Um until my baby comes as they wont be touching me unless they an prove my baby is in any danger...them doing anything outside of that would be what they call assault!

[deletedit]

I always liked answering "When are you due?" with "last week" *evil grin*

I've had two late and one quite early. The early one is still way ahead of herself

[Beach Mama]

People couldn't quite work out why on earth I didn't book in for a c/s with DS instead of waiting for 14 days past due date for a VBAC, even now they say the same thing Jas mentioned, "wow they LET you go so far" and I say, no they didn't LET me I chose to wait!! Not long now!! xox
