Too Petty???

So I am due January 15th. This just so happens to be my MIL birthday. We are currently no contact due to her stealing more than $2500 from my partner. Anyway, I scheduled an induction for January 13th with all the hope that baby girl will not be born on her birthday. Is that too petty??
