no wucking forries!
The doctor checked my mother inside out yesterday and found that the cervix was too tight, the birthchannel too long and my head too high. Therefore the odds to expect a spontaneous labour within a week would be next to nothing. She proposed to induce labour artificially using hormones but I'm not even a week over due!
We already knew from the beginning that the expected delivery date of 7 April was incorrect. They reckoned this day because it's 40 weeks after the first day of my moms last period. But the next month, moms ovulation jumped two weeks in order to allow me to be conceived. Otherwise it wouldn't have happened this way. My mom and I agreed that 22 April would be a perfect birthday, which would be exactly 40 weeks after conception. It's a nice thought though that the cervix is tightly closed for it's quite comfortable here and I could easily stay here for another 10 days.
Of course I'm curious to see my parents but I'll be able to see them the rest of my life and perhaps more than I care for so I'm gratefully taking this opportunity to be carried around, protected from the tough outside world as long as it lasts.
