3rd Trimester

Wordings Freak Me Out (Really Random)

Looking at my tickers it says 37 weeks 1 day... ok cool.

Then it says what 20 or 21 days to go... that's fine.

DH wakes up this morning and says LO is due in 2 weeks and 6 days... Indifferent .

Now all I can focus on it the 2 weeks part and the fact I'm going to be a mommy in 2 weeks and some change. Anyone else find that how family and friends word your countdown or count-up can either calm you or make your head spin?

Permission to freak out?

Re: Wordings Freak Me Out (Really Random)

  • Permission granted...I had a breakdown yesterday.  I was nervous, overwhelmed, excited, scared, happy.  Couldn't explain all these emotions I was feeling and just cried for 20 minutes.  Hormones...
  • My ticker scares me sometimes, but I am normally cool with it.  (though I may not be when I get as close as you are!)  BUT, my 13 year old got out a calender the other day and counted down backwards in a black sharpie how many days we had to go....that freaked me out.

  • I am due Saturday, Feb. 6th, but we have a scheduled c-sec on Friday the 5th (unless LO decides to come earlier). My mom called the other day to let me know that on Saturday the 6th, I will be a mom of a one day old. I almost hyperventilated. I know it is coming, but you ladies are right, sometimes it just freaks me out.

    I was all for the calender and then today just put it at a halt. Sad Maybe I should go pack my hospital bag now since I guess I'm at that moment.

  • Totally terrifying.  The other night, someone asked me when I was due when I was out with DH.  DH answers, "Well, anywhere from 2 to 7 weeks, really."  ACK!  BOTH of those numbers freak me out!  2 weeks (when I hit full term) seems way too close, and 7 weeks (2 weeks overdue, equaling inducement) seems way too far away!
  • Permission granted.  It freaked me out that this week I could say I am due next Friday.  Holy Freaking Crap.

  • Oh yes,  freak out moment was this morning.  It's so close.  I'm really just trying to keep myself busy so I don't drive myself insane.

  • In less than 48 hours I'll be in the hospital hooked to an IV of pitocin. Indifferent Thursday sounds fine. Less than 48 hours is scary. I've hardly slept the last 2 nights!
