I'm so depressed, I feel like my baby is never going to come! I get so sick of going to the doctor and them saying "It's gonna be this week" and nothing! Why do I feel so upset?! I feel crazy

Ohhh I understand you! I was past ready when my baby was born 2 weeks early!
It will be soon enough. Be patient.
You have to think about that baby. The longer it stays in, the better for the baby. Believe me.

HANG IN THERE!!
My due date was Feb 25th and I'm still goin'! I was pretty upset at first, I just wanted my baby to get out, but I'm just enjoying the relaxing now and trying not to think about it as much... though it's hard! She could be here any day now.
But think of all the good things! A full term baby is very healthy, so our babies will be big and strong! :)
You can try to induce labour, though it doesn't always work. I've tried a lot, walking, sex, spicy foods, raspberry leaf tea... it all depends on when the baby wants to come out! By next week, if you're still pregnant, the doctor will send you for a non-stress test to make sure the baby is still safe, and if he/she is, then don't worry and just let the baby come :)
Good luck with everything, you'll have a baby soon!

I know how you feel, I was like it with my first, he was 3 days late. I just felt so big and clumsy and uncomfortable and I just wanted to hold my baby boy.
With this pregnancy, however, I'm just praying I'll reach my due date. I almost miscarried at 16 weeks, and I have had a high-risk pregnancy ever since. I have been terrified all through my pregnancy that I would lose my baby, and now, at 31 weeks, I'm just starting to relax a bit. Remember, although you are uncomfortable, later is better than sooner for baby!!
:-) Congrats and good luck with the birth.

My baby was 2 days late. I had to be induced. When she arrived she was 8lbs. I know that you feel miserable and everyday is spent wondering if "today will be the day?" You could try walking, having sex, go for a bumpy ride. She'll come when she's ready or when the doctor is ready, you really have no choice in the matter unless you opt for c-section. Good Luck and Congrats!

The baby will come when it's ready. If worse comes to worse, they'll probably only let you go a week past your due date before they try to induce. Obviously the baby isn't ready to come yet, so just get some rest because you'll need it soon!

Just remember that a due date isn't 100%. It is frustrating to go to the doctor and have them say "any day now" when you're feeling more like "RIGHT NOW."
I was due April 24th with my daughter, and when the day came and went I was very depressed, but it ended up being wonderful when she came on April 27th (she was the best birthday gift I ever got!).

You are upset because you have been pregnant forever and it seems like you will never deliver. You will, hang in there. Look at it this way, they won't let you go past 2 weeks late so there is a light at the end. Keep yourself busy and delivery day will be here before you know it. Remember, things can change overnight.

my due date was friday the 2nd and i havent had my baby yet. it sucks. my doctor said that they induce when you reach 41 weeks and 5 days. it sucks because they give you this date and base everything off of it so you think that the baby will be born that day, atleast thats how i feel. just hang in there, theres not much more you can do. good luck.

I know exactly how you feel. But I can promise you that you won't be pregnant forever. Those "due dates" they give you are only approximate. The baby will arrive, when the baby is ready. Just take a deep breath and relax. It will all be over before you know it.

You're just anxious my dear. You will meet your baby very soon Take these last few days/hours. Do something for you, take a nap, prepare some meals get things ready for your little angel. Sleep as much as possible
Take care and i wish you an amazing and fast birth!
