I don't want my baby to arrive today.

[Rhynswynd]

Today is the second anniversary of the first of 4 miscarriages. I am due with this baby in Sunday and have a feeling she will arrive today. I can't decide if having her today would help heal the past or just be too weird. I am also naming her after my mum who died last year and don't want her birth to forever be connected with loss which her arriving today would contribute to.
I am feeling very off and anyone I have spoken to irl seem to dismiss my worries and just say to focus on new baby. My heart hurts.

If you're in the UK and not in labour your baby is unlikely to arrive today. There's less than three hours left.
Sorry for your losses. Wishing you well with the baby.

It might help, my mother had me on the same day she had had a full term stillbirth 5 years previously and I think it did help her.

I'm in Australia. It's now Friday and plenty if the day left to worry about.

Sorry OP. If this is your first labour and things haven't started you could have days and days to go.

If she comes today then that will completely change your associations with this date. You will still mourn your losses of course but this day will also be full of joy and amazement. Good luck.

It's my 4th baby so really any time now I guess.
I really hope if she does come today that it helps somewhat. I've been an emotional mess for 2 solid years and want to look to a positive future.

How did you go? Anything today?

She's still not here. Thanks for checking in. I need to calm down and stop stressing and she will turn up when she is ready. I bet it will be on Monday now lol
Merry Christmas xxx

Good luck Rhynswynd

Love your name btw, very clever

Thank you 😁 I'm now just worried I will miss my Christmas roast and be stuck with hospital food
I love the name too. There are so many Pratchett themed names on here that I wanted to mix it up a bit.

Good luck
