Anyone else's boss boss flip out about not have a concrete due date?

Question

I'm 20 + 2 accounting to my LMP, but I've gotten several different due dates from my doctor. I don't mind not having a due date and I actually think it will help me be less anxious when the time gets closer. I won't be having any expectations or whatever. 
BUT, my boss is FLIPPING out because I don't have a due date. He is being absolutely ridiculous. I told him mid July, which is what we are telling everyone. He was not satisfied with that answer and demanded that I tell him the specific date. I told him to just go with July 15 since that's pretty much the exact middle of July, and he got all pissed that I was "giving him false information" and "keeping my due date from him". 
I literally DONT KNOW! "Mid July" is good enough for me. Jeez. It's not like the kid is likely to come on their actual due date anyways.

Answer

Due dates are almost never when the child is born. It can be weeks earlier or weeks after... I'd say that you'll be 40 weeks on the 15th but could deliver anytime from 36 weeks to 42 weeks realistically. Then tell his stupid ass to do his research.

Lol I don't think he gets this whole pregnancy thing. It isn't down to an exact science. 😂🙄

Answer

Stuck with the lmp always!!! After all, via the ultrasounds the estimations docs get they usually use to pressure moms into inducing or scheduling csections and then come to find out the estimations were off. If your cycle is regular, go off your lmp and be firm on that.

Answer

Hmm do you not have to give a last day of work? So they can replace you? I work for a union and was told I have to tell them when my last day of work will be so that they can post my position for my mat leave. My due date is July 2nd so I said June 23rd. If something happens and I have to leave earlier I have tons of sick time I can use.

Answer

Not to mention you really don't even know when you're going to be leaving for maternity leave even if you DO know the due date. It's all pretty much up in the air regardless. Sheesh...tell him to relax.
