I am only one day past my due date but I am already feeling incredibly stressed. Mainly because I have an deadline I need to meet! Baby won't be on my insurance and the program we will be using accepts applications for the 1st of the following month up through the 15th of the one before. Already baby will be uninsured for a period between the time she comes and Feb 1st, but if she doesn't arrive by the middle of next week, I am going to miss the deadline and will face more than a month with an uninsured newborn.

I want to do it all naturally, no epi, but I am thinking I might need to be induced, and that increases the probability of interventions and more pain. Plus I have no idea if I can get an induction scheduled before the end of next week, which will be too late!

I just feel like I am making no progress at all! Plus I skidded my car into a snowbank this am to avoid hitting two deer...and you would think that would send me into labor, but no. (Of course I was only going about 20 miles an hour pre-skid.)
