Birth month disappointment

Tessa

I know how stupid and illogical this is..

I'm due Sept 22nd and I am using a midwife so their will be no induction or other augmentation to my babys birth. She will come when she comes.

But I really want her to be born in September and not October! Statistically their is a 72% chance that she will be born in September but that leaves a 28% chance that she'll be born on October. I know logically that I should not worry about it and let her come when she's ready.. but I continue to worry.

I also don't want her to go past 41 weeks +1 because I want her to be small. I've heard stories about women who gave birth at 42-44 weeks and they say stuff like "he didn't even look like a newborn, he came out looking 3 months old" and I don't want to miss her sweet tininess.

Again... I know that this is totally trivial and stupid but I can't cant shake it out of my mind. I thought if I could vent it out then it would stop popping into my head.
