Anyone else NOT in a hurry?

Question

I'm a FTM and due on Oct 9. I don't feel ready (I know I never will) and so I'm not in such a hurry to get this baby out. Even pregnancy is hard I'm scared of labor and definitely want more time to prepare. I also just got off work, so spending time at home sounds nice! 
At my 38 week appointment I was not dialated at all and 50% effaced. I don't think I've lost any part of my plug either. Dr. told me to walk around to move the baby down and I have been, but I'm just not that much in a rush! 
Am I just the only one?

Answer

Haha I go back and forth... not that I don't feel ready! I am so excited, and I'm weirdly not that worried about labor (although I'm sure I will be when it hits me!!). However, when I think about not being prego anymore, it makes me sad. I like this part of my life, especially being that it's my first pregnancy. Once she is born, I will never be pregnant for the first time...

I’m due the 27th so I have about 4 weeks to go and I’m fine just riding it out till about then or after even. I haven’t felt any Braxton Hicks yet and I don’t think the baby dropped yet. I had my shower over the weekend so now I’m feeling overwhelmed with organizing stuff and getting the stuff we didn’t get and all. They need to chill out for a few more weeks before I’ll be ready. People are like any day now!! I’m like:

I'm due the 11th. Saw my OB today and she walked in and was like, 'you're STILL pregnant?!'. Then she told me to start walking and having sex 😂
We good... no thanks. 
LOL

Answer

Due October 11 and feel the same way! I know I'll never be truly ready but it's such a mix of emotions! Good luck to you ❤️

Answer

I'm due Weds (the 4th) and keep switching from "ready" to totally panicked. ughh.

Answer

I am ready whenever but not anxious about it. I have a toddler and know this next week is as calm as life is going to be for a while. 😉 Due on Thursday, baby will come when she's ready.

Answer

I'm back and forth.  Like I'd love to just be one person again but I have to have a csection this Thursday and I'm nervous AF.  I had an emergency csection before but this time my brain is driving me crazy. I'm excited and terrified at the same time.  My last baby was a stillborn so those thoughts pop up a lot for me too.

Answer

no even I feel like I am not ready.  I really don't like to walk, so feel much guilty for that too. 
I am also ftm, scared of every little thing related to my baby, but not really scared of labor. just want to take pain of labor as it comes. I feel that the pain which I have not experienced till now, how can I be scared of? leaving that completely on God. 
also not in any rush. atleast want to make till 15 Oct, edd is 20. I hope we both feel ready after having small baby in our hands. much love from me.

Answer

I'm not in a hurry either! My original due date was 10/24 but at my appointment last Thursday, my doc surprised me with news that he wants to induce one week early. I talked him into moving it from the 17th to the 19th just to get some last minute hours put in at work. I know it's only 5 days earlier and I could have even gone into labor by then but I was counting on a few more free days to get ready for baby!! I don't feel ready at all!
