Tomorrow is my 39 week appointment. I am scared of many things. I have a week to get this baby out. I'm scared my midwife won't be able to preform a sweep, or if she does, it won't work and then my next appointment won't be till my due date (which I can't go over). I'm also terrified my midwife won't agree to schedule an induction this week. I refuse to be in this much pain on Christmas, or even be recovery at the hospital on Christmas. My mother in law also already booked her flight to see the baby and she leave the day after Christmas so if I go over my due date, I can't promise she will be able to meet her grandbaby. My father in law committed suicide a few months ago and this is our first Christmas without him and it would mean everything to have this baby out and home for the holiday. If my midwife refuses to do an induction before my due date, can I tell her I'm going to find another doctor who will?
