holy sh*t, it's November

I seriously can't believe it's November and that I'm due this month.
Anyone else in denial?

Re: holy sh*t, it's November
Me. me. me. me.
I am so in denial. It still seems really surreal that LO is going to be my son and be out in the next 2 weeks... people keep asking if I am excited, and I am.. but scared shartless too.
Maybe because they follow that question up with how hard the first few weeks are and how much my life is going to change.
Really tired of "your life is going to change" btw. No kidding?
I think my gigantic fear of breastfeeding is also helping me with said denial. Yes, I am excited to meet her but I am really dreading breastfeeding (which I am going to do even though I don't want to). As weird as that is, it makes it easier for me to "wait" until she is ready to come out...... because the longer she is in there the longer I can put off the sucking on the boob every 2 hours.
That face is EXACTLY how I feel...
Yep. All of this. And also what MJ said... people who keep saying how my life is going to change are scaring the bejesus out of me...
sorry duplicate post!
i'm not due until Dec.
whew.
look at the birds | bless this food
Betsy will be five months in 2 DAYS!! How is that possible??
It's November?
Nuh uh, no way, can't be. Nope. I refuse to believe that jargon. It's still July and I'm only in second tri. Right? Right!?
Crap.
I think I have said I am dreading it before. I guess it's not a fear it's more just serious dreading. I am just very modest and it's going to be really hard for me to deal with someone sucking on my boob-never mind every 2 hours and in front of people. I know it's my kid and I probably won't even care after a little while. It just freaks me out. Hopefully, it won't be as horrible as I am imagining it to be because I am planning to stick it out for the full year if I can.
WHy does my mother think it's necessary to say this every.single.day. I am going to punch her if she says it to my face!
Only 14 days until my c-section...I think I'll be in the hospital later this week. I still cannot fathom there being a CHILD in my body!
Francesca Pearl is here! Josephine Hope is almost 3!
I feel the same way... nervous about juggling BF and aftercare for myself and sleeping at all instead of being wide awake listening to him breathe.
My doc keeps saying he'll induce if I want him to if things are favorable and I keep pushing it off.
Maybe it's because I had a easy pregnancy and still feel good... probably better than I will for the first 2 weeks he's here.
I have been reading a lot about breastfeeding (a lot) so I am going to give it a go on my own. I was thinking of saving any sort of meeting for if I find myself really struggling with it. I tend to blow things up in my mind way worse than they will ever be in real life... which I guess is an interesting coping mechanism!
I see it as "momma's got her boobs out- visiting time is over"
What is a good book for that? i have read a bit in a bunch of books, but not one good book about it.
My ped has a LC on staff. Thank God.
And your bolded statement? So me. You and I need to exchange email addresses to get through the first 2 weeks.
I like this one.

Me too, T.bird, but I have a weird feeling that he's going to come between Thanksgiving and his due date(12/2, exactly a week after Thanksgiving), so I'm a little nervous myself...I actually think my nesting phase started Saturday morning @ 2 am & I've been going since so far! Eeeek!!!
I'm not due until January, but it being November is freaking me out. We have so much going on over the next few weeks and then it's Thanksgiving (which we're hosting) and then we'll have Christmas parties (two of which we're hosting) that it'll be January before I know it. I feel like I need to make a list or something. STAT.
Good luck to all the moms due this month!
We are due the same day!!
Amen, although I still technically have "six weeks". This little LO is making nervous that I might have a little turkey bird instead of snow angel.
