    Default I am really ready

    I have had a long and hard pregnancy. I was put on bedrest at 30 weeks it is now 39 1/2 weeks. I am not really complaining because I am glad that she is going to be fullterm but it is time for her to get out.

    I have used most of my STD and vacation time and worry that I will have to go back to work almost right away.

    Lol Nichole!
    Hang on, almost there! You are doing great Momma-to-be giving your little one just what she needs, the precious gift of time.
    I'm hoping you can find a way to stretch out your time home with her when she arrives, don't hesitate to ask for help from people who love you.

    There are lots of things you can do to help encourage labour to start. Eat spicy foods, go for long walks, have sex (). Look 'em up, and start trying them out!

    Do you not get standard maternity leave / pay after the birth?

    Hope she arrives soon for you
