getting tired of the questions - vent

nisems · October 2009

Now that I can see the "finish line", I can't seem to talk to ANYONE without them asking me when the baby is coming. My mom calls me everyday to ask if there are "any signs", my DH seems to think that I have a switch somewhere up there that I can just flip to get things going. First question out of anyone's mouth when I call is "are you in labor?!". My SIL asked me last night if I thought I'd deliver on my due date and wondered if she should start a pool.

For F's sake people, leave me alone!!! I promise, without a doubt, that this baby will come out. I'm going to go ahead and estimate that she will be here sometime in the next five weeks, most likely sooner. Keep your panties on!! I know mine are. And my legs are crossed, so you can just quit with your thoughts of getting your hands on my kid!!

(big sigh) thanks. I feel better having gotten that out. Smile

Ugh, how frustrating. I know that will drive me crazy. I'm already sick of be asked how I'm feeling 50 times a day.

My cousin warned be about this last night! She said it is quite annoying. I am glad you feel better :-)

Oh yeah and enough with the how are you feeling question! I feel like crap..LOL!

yeah, people totally quit caring how you feel at this point - they seriously just want to hold that baby. I have to say it IS nice not be asked about my blood pressure everyday, (which always seemed to make it rise).

Maybe I should just face the fact that I'm a raging hormonal beast right now and nothing will make me happy. but no, that couldn't be it..... Wink

My first 3 pgs were all 42 weeks and boy do I remember the frustration you are going through. Let me assure you this does pass. GL and hope you only have a couple more weeks.

at least people care?? Outside from my husband, nobody ever asks how I'm doing.

I TOTALLY feel you! I feel a little guilty because I'm ready to not be pregnant anymore! More specifically - I'm ready to have my healthy little girl in my arms....the novelty is wearing off and the lack of control over my own body is getting old quick. And yes - every conversation is "How are you feeling". It's not like people are being rude - but it's annoying all the same....so then I feel bad about feeling that way! UGH!

I always wondered why it was women that were close to their due date were so adamant to get it all over with, while I was relishing in the idea of even being pregnant or enjoying non-eventful 1st and 2nd trimesters. But - now I get it...
