This is going to sound snarky but

Am I the only one who finds it extremely annoying to get a boatload of text messages and phone calls everyday asking if the baby is here yet? I haven't even reached my due date and its been happening since last week.

I know, I know, I should feel blessed to have such concerned and loving family and friends. But I'm huge, sleep-deprived, and already anxious to have this kid and its making my anxiety worse. Its not like I will keep it a secret when the baby comes people, lets be patient!

I have actually done this to pregnant friends and I promise to never again.

Okay, I'm done venting, feel free to rip my head off for being a jerk...

    I am feeling the same way! Due date was 3/17 and nothing is happening yet. I'm just not responding to anyone but my parents. People are excited about the baby, which is really nice but I'm tired and crabby. I'm trying to avoid facebook but it's hard since

    I'm not extremely annoyed...yet. The texts and emails started about 5 days ago. I also haven't reached my due date yet. As much as I would like LO to make his appearance (because HELLO! If anyone in my life is impatient, it is this uncomfortable momma

    Totally hear you, had the same before baby was born. Now dealing with the bombarding of postdelivery texts/phone calls... It feels great to be so loved, but wouldn't mind feeling less obligated to make phone calls between feelings and poop changing.

    As nice as everyone is trying to be, I am actually a pretty private person and haven't posted any specifics about being pregnant on my facebook or anything like that, and no one gets the hint.

    I've kept everything very need to know, so being ho

    I am getting very annoyed, especially since my family are calling multiple times a day.  They all know when my appts are and stalk me down.  It's nice to be cared about, but annoying to have it a constant reminder that you are just waiting...

    Well, I guess I'm the odd one out here. I am the first of my friends to have a baby and I really feel like they've abandoned me. No one asks how I am doing or well, anything really. I thought they'd be more interested. And it isn't so much that I want

    Yup, i know what you mean.  I feel like a jerk thinking just leave me alone already - but of course you will know when the baby will be here.  I am so anxious to have her it just makes it worse when people keep asking!

    SOOO there with you! I do feel blessed, but it gets annoying quite fast! I am offically on maternity leave as of last Friday and since my due date, Sat 16th, I've been getting texts and phone calls everyday from 4-8 people. It especially gets to me when I

    I haven't gotten those kinds of texts too often, but I got it every day at work which makes me so glad I'm on maternity leave! My poor husband keeps getting asked though.

    "How's she doing? Any news?"

    "Yes, she had the baby. That's why I'm

    I considered ignoring the calls and texts but then I got,

    "Are you at the hospital? Why aren't you responding to my texts??"

    Fail.
