sounds good to me!
I actually did a little calculations from when I'm thinking she was conceived and it looks hopeful.  
and you should just schedule your's for the 7th, I see more point in scheduling for something that means a lot to you rather than scheduling it for some random day just because it's convenient for extended family.  
plus if your cousin's coming to help on the 7th it'd be perfect. She'd be able to help out and spend time with the baby the entire time she's there.

I think I'm going to. I see my OB tomorrow to schedule it and DH isn't helping at all picking a day. My cousin will get in around 10pm on the 7th. So she can spend the 8th with DD and my parents. If all goes well hospital wise, I'll be going home on the 9th in the morning. When I'm home is when she's going to be staying at my house (first day or so at my parents).
I was also thinking though maybe, very small maybe, to schedule the 5 just incase anything does go wrong (c-section wise) then my cousin won't be spending most or all of her time here sitting in the hospital with me or just spending time with my parents & DD. So I was thinking if I did the 5 and its a normal, healthy delivery and baby I'll be going home the morning of the 7. Obviously there's a chance I can be in labor for a very long time and go into the 6th labor wise. Idk, I'm just thinking and tossing around scenarios. Her and I are close, so I want to spend time with her when she's here, not just in the hospital. Ya know?

Its yours and your husbands baby! Don't worry about what your MIL, FIL or cousins have to say! They arent the ones that carried the baby for nine months and have to go through labor! I say have the baby on the 7th and if anyone has a problem with that tell to shove it were the sun dont shine!

I say go with the 7! Its a meaningful day to you and they need to respect that!

hmm good points... I say just do whatever works better for you! relatives ALWAYS have a two cents to put in, I just ignore it. I'm sure they'll have plenty more things after your DS is born that they'll want to control or have their say in, but when it comes down to it, it's about YOU and what works best for YOU since you are the one that's going to be in labor.

it drives me insane when other people must insisit on tellin u when to plan something so it fits around their schedule.. the thing is, its u (and ur parnters) decision and its up to everyone else to prioritse their own schedule and if they really wanna be there they will priotise so they fit it in, dont stress about pleasing everyone, do what u want and is best for u... goodluck :-)

Thats what I would do  .

Maje it march 7th... screw everyone else.. its your body your baby. Yeah dh had one little microscopic bit of help.. other then that its been all you so fkem lol do what you want court. I picked ds birthday and didnt run it past dh he didnt care. He just wanted us healthy birthdate is just a number to him. I wish you the best love in whatever you choose! I cant wait to see your little NEWB. choles just adorable. I know he will be also  

Just do it on the 7th and don't tell anyone. Because of drama in my family my husband and I aren't telling anyone when I go into labor, we are just going to call people once he is here and we are settled. This is YOUR time, screw everyone else and make it as easy and less stressful on you as possible.

Thank you Mandy  
I've been hinting that I'm choosing the 7th, but no one is really catching on since they're all sort of idiots.
Next appointment I fill out all the papers for the hospital so I don't have to at the lovely hour of 5am. I need to 100% have a date chosen then (saw the nurse on Friday, OB wasn't in, he was at L&D). I'm just going to pick one and everyone else can suck it.

SERIOUSLY!!! do what you feel is right, if I had the chance to have a child on a SPECIAL day like my GF's birthday or even the day he had passed! I WOULD!! I wish you a happy and safe delievery girl! and just tell everyone to shove it. its not your first rodeo and honestly the dr. will listen to you and everyone else will be left behind lol

Very true! My vagina, I make all the decisions.
My OB is like my little therapist when I see him. I saw him a few appointments ago and we were just talking about MIL, he replied with "I'll personally kick her out of the room". I forget what we were talking about but that just made me laugh. He thinks she's a little nutty.

If I could just have this baby without anyone even knowing (well, besides my parents  ) I totally would. Then tell them later that day/night a kid came out of me. I know DH would not go for that though.

well I didnt tell my MIL till like a day after connor was born.. but that was really DH who told her not me lol I wouldnt have told her at all..

What would these silly people do if you spontaneously went into labor and had your baby on a day that was "inconvenient" to them? Schedule it on the day you want and whoever really wants to be there, will be there regardless of what plans they had already made.

That I can't get away with. DH has a big mouth and tells mommy dearest every little thing.
