NikSac April 3, 2015 Share April 3, 2015 (edited) I'm beginning to think Jilly Muffin's pregnancy is psychosomatic... brought on by the need to breed in order to have any value. I can certainly see how it might be, but isn't she still technically in the due date time frame? Like even before traditional doctors are clamoring to induce or do a c-section? I think that's the downside of announcing things wayyyy too early, plus having sisters competing with you (if Jessa and Anna are - or for that matter her mom may be competing too, eek... but anyway) It makes it seem like a REALLY long time, when traditionally close loved ones are used to 'waiting' maybe 6 months and other people who aren't sure if she just put on a few pounds aren't even waiting that long.

When I was newly married I got belligerent with people asking me about when I was going to get pregnant, resorting to finally responding "I can't believe you are so rude as to keep asking" and so forth. To actually be pregnant and then have people feeling up your belly would totally do me in. I'm not a natural hugger, and to think of people feeling free to make wise cracks and touch my belly would make me violent. Yes, kind, polite little old me.

3girlsforus April 3, 2015 Share April 3, 2015 Some of it depends on what due date they really believe to be the most accurate but assuming she's overdue from the midwife's perspective it's unlikely they haven't at least been trying some basic 'lets get this going' kind of techniques. There are herbs, castor oil, stripping the membranes (this is not the same are rupturing the membranes) and a variety of other mild labor simulators. Waiting until you are fully overdue (42+ weeks) would require a medical induction which is not done at home so you try not to let it get that far.

3girlsforus April 3, 2015 Share April 3, 2015 That's the way my midwives worked too but Jill's midwives won't have hospital privileges so if she goes to the hospital she'll have her care taken over by an OB.

I find Jill's lack of panic about the due date kind of refreshing, but I wonder if they're doing any monitoring to make sure Rick James remains healthy in there. I went two weeks over with my second, and my amniotic fluid ended up being low; she also aspirated meconium and we had a tense situation for a little while. Plus, she was 10.2 pounds AND posterior, so labor was a real party. Jill does look exhausted in that pic with Jenny. I would imagine she's not sleeping well.

In my experience the ultrasound due date isn't always definitive. My younger son's calculated EDD was December 6th. The CNM who saw me at my appointment after the ultrasound (in that practice we had to see the CNM at least once) decided to move my due date to December 3rd based on his ultrasound. However, at my next appointment my midwife (an LM -- Licensed Midwife in my state and in this case an RN as well) put it back to December 6th because a) I knew exactly when the child was conceived as my husband at the time traveled for a living and there was only one "incident" in a four-month window of time; and b) three days can make a difference when a woman has a history of holding onto a pregnancy for awhile after her official EDD... and I had that history. It's a good thing the date wasn't changed, because the boy arrived 12 days past the 6th, and moving it back to the 3rd would have had me in the hospital being induced.
