Due 12/24

Gaby

Anyone else who is due that close to the new year worried about going past your due date? If I have my baby in 2018 I have to pay my freaking deductible of $1500 even tho I've paid monthly up until I have the baby. Insurance is so frustrating. I wouldn't have this issue if I made less money and had Medicaid 🙄🙄

I've heard the same thing, no I have not. I have a cerclage in and it will be removed early December and I'll have a 50/50 chance of going into labor within 24 hrs of it being removed. if I don't go into labor I'm going to ask about induction. my due date is the 22nd however my parents are leaving for Australia a few days before then and I want my mum to be there so I'm going to talk to my Dr about it.

I've heard being induced sucks tho and draws out the process. Have you even been induced before?

Our deductible is 10,000, so we will be inducing before my due date. Also to avoid letting him come on Christmas.

My Dr. Told me she wouldn't make me go into 2018 for that exact reason. I have a $1500 deductible as well 😭😭

I was having the same thoughts. My due date is 12/30. I've already met my deductible and I've almost met my out of pocket maximum. However, my doctor did mention that they may want to deliver at 37 weeks.

i was thinking the same thing because my deductible has already been reached for the year. my due date is the 27 and praying baby comes a couple days earlier.
