    Driving 5/ 6 hours (without counting breaks) for Thanksgiving with a 2 month old. Would you do it?

    @graced1257 I wouldn’t. For all the reasons you’ve already outlined but also where I live weather can turn very bad very quickly that time of year.

    Does due date change at 20 week scan?

    @groundskeeper I think this will really depend on your doctor. I measured more than a week ahead at mine and the date was not changed. My office doesn’t change them without significant compelling evidence the original was wrong.

    a question of entitlement

    @kezia I think both parents are at fault as described. The story shows no communication from either party. Parent B should be more aware and proactive, and Parent A should be upfront about what they need instead of waiting until Parent B is out the door and going on the attack.
