Ugh. I might smack DH.

Every year he goes to the Indy 500 race in Indianapolis. He loves it. I'm pretty sure he dreams about it. His birthday is the 26th of May and every year it's sort of his gift to himself. Well I'm due June 3rd. I've been on makena injections which I was on with DD as well.

I was told by my high risk docs that often times women labor naturally about a week after the last injection which is exactly what happened with DD. So my last shot was at 36 wks. It will be two weeks on Thursdsy since my last shot.

DH is driving me nuts about this race. It's the 24th. I mean seriously I get it.. He wants to go but I can't control when the baby will come!!

I got a massage this weekend. A pedicure with deep massage. Clary sage oil. Raspberry tea. I mean what else do you think I can do really?? Wednesday is his drop dead date. If no baby by then, he won't go. Sorry you might miss your race. I can't do crap about it. Geesh.

my husband always gives me his approved dates for me to have my babies on for each pregnancy.  Things like "it would be nice if you had the baby on this certain date so I could miss this meeting I don't want to do" and "don't have the baby on this certain date because I want to watch this certain sports event on TV" etc

Sometimes he will ask me "do you think you will have the baby on ...... whatever certain day or date..... because I want to ........" Like really.  It could be a date weeks away or days away.  LIke I control when I have the baby at all. 

My husband has only ever gone with me to one dr appointment.  It was with my 2nd child.  It was an appointment that was one day over my due date. I thought it odd he was going...then when we got there the reason came out.  When my midwife came in he tells her  "so I wanted to see what we could do about inducing her" .  I was like WHAT???? I didn't want to be induced.  His reasons were because 1. the end of the year was near...he wanted the tax break and 2. He liked knowing he didn't have to get up in the middle of the night or anything to go to the hospital...it just worked better for HIS schedule!!  My midwife was like "ummmm...no we are not inducing at this point"

It's annoying the crap out of me! I keep saying really you think I don't want to go into labor? I'm the one carrying around all the weight. Hellooo. I was hoping to go so I wouldn't miss my sons kindergarten graduation. At least that's a kid reason. Lol. He just wants to go to this dumb race!

Ugh. Either of those situations would piss me off. Sorry ladies. Luckily I haven't had to deal with any bs like this, tho I do suspect that he is hoping that I will go into labor either the night before he has to report in for duty at work (his schedule is 2 days on, 2 days off) or during his first duty day back at work. I know he doesn't want to spend his 'off' days dealing with me laboring, lol. But if I call him out of work... That's a whole other thing

It is totally pissing me off!  He texted me again this morning.. go into labor yet?  I said dude haven't you ever heard that the watch pot never boils?????!!!!  Leave me alone. Seriously.  I said listen up.. I had a crappy morning trying to get the kids out of the house.. your son was late for school.. I was late for work.. you son basically called me fat this morning (DS is 6) and there was a giant black spider that tried to eat me in the car on the way to work so you need to just leave me alone. lol  

Ugh. I don't know what he expects me to do about it.  I finally texted him back and said ya know what.. go to the stupid race.. I'll take my mom to the hospital with me and you can officially be titled shittiest husband of the year. I mean really.  He's like no.. I'm not going if you haven't had the baby.. I'm not mad.. I'm just asking.  I said well quit asking! Obviously you're going to know if I go into labor.. I'm obviously going to call you. 

It's bad enough that I'm seriously miserable with back pain/hip pain, no sleep, stress at work.. I don't know him pressuring me constantly too.
