So...my mom asks me the other day..."Dawnie, you going induce labor so I can be dea , yeah?(mom…

not true your baby is actually considered full term at 37 weeks.

@braylinsmommy, its always debatable I guess....but I rather be on the safe side and trust what the medical professionals say ☺

@braylinsmommy, they actually changed it to where it's considered early term and 39 is full term

no true about a c section either...stayed in the hospital the same amount of days as a vaginal birth...its different for every body and I have healed quicker than most vaginal birth as well

@ariannaandbrianjrmother, you're right, each case is different... sadly in my case, my emergency c section kept me in for four days as opposed to my two VBACs... of course, considering my c section was almost 21 years ago.. lol

@babyhawkins2015 lol yes my first c section I was in the hospital for a week only bc of my blood pressure but if I would of had her vaginal it would of been the same....I'll rather be safe than sorry and in both my cases of c section it was a life or death situation...I had HELLP syndrome with my daughter and a placenta previa with my son

@ariannaandbrianjrmother, wowza... yes, mine would have been natural had my baby girl's cord not try to come out first! yikes. She almost passed..but they caught it just in time... of course I had to be embarrassingly wheeled out of my room to the ER operating room, butt naked on all fours with the Dr's hand up my crotch to keep her from cutting off her oxygen....while by standers watched me get gurney'd away!!! Ahhhh great memories!!! lol

@babyhawkins2015 wow...that would always be in my mind and that's something I would tell my daughter just to see her facial expression...lol

@ariannaandbrianjrmother, She loves her birth story....especially because it was embarrassing for her mom! brat she is..haha

Love this. I always worry that girls are being encouraged to induce for convenience. Also many seem to be misinformed about 37 weeks being full term. It's uncomfortable to be nine months pregnant but it's best for mama and baby to wait it out! :)

@ligermama, Well stated!! I personally will let my Lil make her debut when she's ready... so sorry mom, I won't be having her just so she can guarantee a seat during showtime. bwahahaha

@babyhawkins2015 lol I believe you on that...I tell my daughter all the time that she almost killed me and she ask me to tell her the story over and over again...all started watching the superbowl that Sunday Feb. 4, 2007 lol

@babyhawkins2015, My mom wanted to move in during my last month so she wouldn't miss it. So I definitely empathize hahaha

@ligermama, awww that's so sweet. I love my mom...but um.... the entire last month of my pregnancy and her would drive me bonkers lmao! Shoot her endless talking would PUT me in labor! bwahahaha

@babyhawkins2015, I spent the whole time reassuring her it would be slow, she wouldn't miss it and then she almost did because my labor was insane. I was so grateful she was there!! We are lucky to have moms who care so much :)

@ligermama, Amen to that!! I don't know what I'd do without my talkative mommy!!!
