What do you do/say when people either moan about being overdue or say that they want their baby to be born early. It drives me mad. My youngest 2 weren't very early (35+3 and 36+6) but their births and being apart from them afterwards were just awful, 2 of the worst things I've had to go through. I've been doing the grit my teeth, smile and nod thing. But it's so hard. My 2 have got lasting problems that may or not be related to their births. I've had overdue babies too and I'd much rather give birth at 42 weeks than 35.
