weekend randoms

Anyone got any randoms/rants?

I do

I'm getting really sick of being identified as the woman about to give birth. I got 5 calls/texts yesterday and DH got 2 asking about the baby or whether we were in labor. No concern for either of us. It's like my whole identity is this bump. It feels like people are criticizing my ute for not having her already. I want to say she'll come when she's ready and btw I exist too. Anyone else struggle with this in the last couple days/weeks?

@mrscatfarmer13‌ I am due Tuesday. My ute isn't cooperating actually. Still totally closed and high. I do have some BH (I think) they feel like period cramps with random tightening. I'm not too worried, it will happen when it happens. My OB isn't going to induce until 12/5 or 12/6 so I have a working "deadline".

Did you get one of those convertable crib/toddler beds?

Yes! Totally. And if one more person had said to me, "man, you are HUGE! You're going to have her any minute now" I probably would have karate chopped someone's face.
