At work blah!!

MissSusieQ · January 2014

I'm here but so don't want to be. Wishing I had my outside baby girl and we were cuddling on the couch with DS today. She needs to arrive already! This mama is anxious and over being a pregnant zombie.

I hear ya it stinks having to work this Late in the game! So sick of hearing "your still here". I'm due this Thursday and originally wasn't scheduled to work this week but I can't stand sitting at home waiting and going crazy, plus I don't want to start using my vacation hours for maternity leave when I don't have my outside baby yet, so I'm heading in for a few hours today. Glad to get out of the house but really not in the mood to hear "you haven't had the baby yet and i thought U would go early but maybe your gonna go late ". So over everyone's UO and predictions! Ugh. Hang in there we are almost there and will have lots of time for cuddling our LO's

Add me to this club. I am here but not really here. Mentally I checked out a while ago. Have a prenatal massage this afternoon after work and then I am all about getting this baby out! I went around 39 weeks with DS so I really hope this one is soon.

Still working here too. I really can't bring myself to care about a single email or project going on at the moment. What's good is that I have been training my replacements for more than a month now so it's not a mad rush to spill everything I know but I am still totally over it. I'm readying to hand over the reigns and kiss work goodbye for my 12 weeks which is by far the longest I have been off of work since I was 14. I can't wait to spend every minute cuddling with my LO!

I'm another one who is tired of the comments at work. I'm at least able to work from home today, taking most/all of tomorrow off, then we'll see about Wed. thru Fri.

Add me to the list of blah to the la at work. Even better, we have a special training so I got to be here at 6:30AM and won't be leaving until 5:30ish. Lucky meeeee. Thank heavens my midwife loves me and is signing my papers for me to be done after this week. AND given my temp is a fast learner, I'll be happily coasting through the back half of the week.

Oh em Gee. If one more person comes by my desk and asks "Are you still here? Or "No baby yet" I might just effing scream at them.

I'm so tired. I keep waking up at night. I left my Pepcid at home. I was really ready to tell my boss I'm starting my maternity leave tomorrow but figured I'd wait till my appt Wednesday to see what my Dr. plans for induction (she said we would discuss it at this weeks appt)

I'm really trying not to complain & soak up these last few days ... but being dog tired is just making me in a horrid mood.

angiek1 · January 2014

UGH no fun. I am a working momma as well, but with this one I opted to take a couple of weeks before LO's arrival to get my house in order. To all of you who are still working; STAY STRONG. It sucks when you get to this point; there is no way around it. Hopefully not much longer!

LuGal623 · January 2014

Still at work also, but today I was ragey coming in especially knowing I would be subjected to a ton of annoying comments. I don't feel like playing today and hope I can keep the snark in check. Thankfully my boss isn't here at least! The lack of sleep and hoping each day going to bed that labor will start is wearing on me. I'm ready to be sleep deprived over my little guy on the outside!

rsoccerg9 · January 2014

Yeah- working this late in pregnancy isn't fun. I am thinking this is my last week at work and I may not even work full days. I, too, keep getting "no baby?" "Your still here?".... Luckily I can work at home if I need to but I don't know what's worse... Sitting at home waiting for my baby boy or being at work busy waiting for baby. I have been training my replacement for a while now too so I keep telling her to pretend like I'm not here. lol. I mean she needs to get used to it now cause in a week I won't be around to help.

Hang in there! We are almost there!

SunflowersBride · January 2014

I'm also still working, and I plan to keep coming in until I go into labor. I work a desk job, and we aren't particularly busy right now, so most of my day is spent bumping/blog reading anyway. I also still feel pretty good and I'm still sleeping fine at night, so I would rather just use my time off to be with my baby rather than waiting around for him to get here.

MissRdotS · January 2014

When I went back to work after this weekend everyone was shocked to see me there and I got a million - we all thought you had your baby! Any signs? Do you feel like he's coming soon? You look huge! Are you feeling OK? You don't look very good. You look tired.

Thanks, guys.

So ready for this to be my last week hopefully!

bmorville · January 2014

I totally feel your pain. I'm trying to continue working until the 14th (my c- section is schedualed for the 17) but it's getting harder and harder every day. I just want to meet my baby girl already!!!

jenalena · January 2014

Lucky for me (I think) I work with mostly men that would prefer to ignore the fact that I'm hobbling through the hallways with a bowling ball between my legs. The few that have commented have wives that are expecting later in the year... But I can't seem to focus on work stuff, I really don't care about budgeting or schedules... It's going to be a long 10 days until 1/17 which should be my last work day.

mrshuse525 · January 2014

If one more person at my works tells me it looks like I'm having twins I'm going to smack someone! The worst part is that they aren't having anyone replace me while I'm out and talked to me today about possibly taking a shorter maternity leave and working from home for awhile with the baby. Sometimes I just want to walk out the door and never come back... I cannot wait for LO to get here and I can just hang out with her all day long!

BrittNR · January 2014

I'm a waitress and I'm OVER not being able to sit down for hours. I'm tired of pretending that I'm over joyed to refill your drink. Just two weeks until my c section... Come on Jan 21!
