Getting Ready for Baby

So I’ve got 6ish weeks left and oh boy the messages and calls I’ve been getting! Advice on eating and drinking for an easily vaginal birth even though I’m having an elective. I’m so glad I didn’t tell anyone I’d get a lot of push back for that even though my choices are mostly medical and practical. I understand people have had kids before and it’s great for them but I wish they’d just let me get on with it and know that if I need help I’ll reach out. Especially when half of them have been absent during my entire pregnancy but suddenly have amazing advice like eating a stick of butter.
