37 wks and 3 days but don't want the baby to come on the 21st of November

Hi.. I am 37 wks and 3 days.. my dr said I could really have my little boy any day now. The one day I don't want to have him is this Saturday the 21st. That is my father and my nephews birthday. The reason I don't want to have him that day is because when my nephew was 5 and half months old he died of sids while I was babysitting him. It's just a sad memory and I don't want my little boy to have to live in that shadow. My question is.. is there really anyway to make sure he doesn't come that day?

I know the feeling of not wanting a certain date but if he does come that day you can have a happy memory of that day!

I had a really traumatic event happen on 11/22 and would be bummed if my little girl came then but also feel maybe it would be healing to have her on that date.

Just know that once your little guy is here nothing else really matters. You will feel so much joy and happiness. Best of luck to you!!
