most doctors wait 2 weeks usually. But one week isn't hard to get most doctors to agree to, I think. and one week would be just perfect, it sounds like.

Brenna, be sure to explain to the doctor that your health insurance ends. Doctors usually don't have any medical concerns about inducing within a week of the due date. However, be carefull about having the baby on October 31 as you don't know if there might be medical complications after the birth (as both my children have had).

If your insurance does run out, then you can always try for medicaid or maybe its worth paying for COBRA insurance. I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Good luck.

I'm not really grump but I've been sent to this string from the "ya for the employed" string because I am unemployed. I hate not having a paying job (perferrable high paying job). In addition, I just had to pay for my oldest son to have surgery on his ears (as my wife and I recently found out that he was deaf and not just ignoring us). In addition, I'm finding all sorts of other things that are sucking away at the saving accounts faster than I can account for them. I think that a soon as I because unemployed, the world conspires to drain any finacial saving that I had.

So the restoration company finally came to restore my room yesterday. They told me that it was going to take a day and a half to finish. Now I've been told that the room is a bio-hazard, it's been completely sealed off with plastic and it will be two weeks before anything gets done.

I guess they found the aliens being cloned in the walls. Which would explain the guys in the suits with the FBI badges.

We at the FBI do not have a sense of humor that we're aware of.

Way to go 42 on creating another superfund site in Utah. But I'm pretty sure that your mother taught you to keep things a little neater/hidden.

A superfund site hunh,... no report was made to us at the National Response Center, and without our specific report number you are in violation of 40 CFR 110.

I'm grumpy because Winamp, Wordperfect, and Eudora all lack unicode support.

My phone died. Charger is in the mail. No way to call or be called. Grrr.

That totally sucks.  Ari is in a similar position - no local phone, just a cell.

I managed to get a very long, painful splinter at karate yesterday. The walls are unsanded wood, and I used my hands to push myself off the wall after doing wall-sitting. The splinter was immediately dubbed "The Thorn of Doom" by the sensei, and that wall is now the "Wall of Doom."

Don't you wish your dojo had a wall of doom, too?

It took me the better part of an hour to get it out--it broke into pieces in my finger. The stupid thing still hurts today, too.

so let me get this straight....

You study martial arts, and a splinter beat you up?

I just think you should be happy the splinter was in your finger and not your butt, since you were doing wall sitting.
