Im 38.2 weeks, plan on working until I have my baby-love but at this point, I seriously have this uncontrollable frustration/annoyance with everyone at work!! Mind you that I actually enjoy my co-workers (usually .. lol) As I walk in and they ask about how my weekend was, or the OBVIOUS "still no baby?",  I just want to punch them in the face! lol I literally loathe work as I enter the parking lot until I leave at 5:30! I get so irritated and emotional over nothing!! ~X( Am I alone on this ladies? I hope not, I feel terrible for it but I just cant help it, I just want to be at home with my son already :-S

Re: Extreme frustration with being at work at this point!!

  • Omgosh this is exactly me! To the letter! The whole "still no baby?" is a conversation I had 5 times this morning as each coworker walked in. Everyone drives me nuts, the work is plotting against me, and the constant remarks about how soon he'll be here is frustrating! I just want to be left alone!

  • Yesss! I'm a teacher's aide and I work with the younger grades all day, and my patience with them is at about 10%. I know they're just kids and can't be blamed for half the things they do, but I just can't deal with them anymore.
  • Oh yea, EVERY DAY!!! Plus it seems like they are making me work harder these last few weeks than I have in a long time. I work in retail and I am supposed to have a mostly seated job, so I was figuring I could handle going all the way to D day, or B day rather :-) All the extra attention and extra work... I just cant handle it. I wanna be home nesting or something. Im pretty close to breaking down at the doctors this week and asking to take these last 3 ish weeks off on medical leave. I  DONT KNOW IF I CAN DO IT!!! So glad im not alone, or crazy for wanting to work so long (initially anyway)
  • ^^This has been so tempting to me honestly. Im active duty military and I work in a hospital so needless to say im on my feet constantly and its not hard for me to be a nice person but when your running around on swollen ankles feeling those darn BH and having to pee every thirty minutes, its starting to get really hard to have patience with the patients :) So I have been really thinking about going to my appointment this Thursday and telling me doctor that I feel stressed at work and I am hurting everywhere and just throwing a big stink so I can just go home and nest and worry about putting everything together for baby.

    Yes, I have to work up until I have the baby and I'm so over it. Everyday, "still pregnant?" "Have the baby yet?" "Do you need me to take you to the hospital?" Im tired of fake laughing and talking about it. I called in sick today bc I feel like death with an awful cold and I'm just sitting here stressed out because I know how busy we are and how behind I'm going to be tomorrow. Im ready to just be done with work and spend time with my little guy!
  • Ditto. I hate it. All of it.
  • I just had someone ask me for the first time "still pregnant?"

    Its funny you say that, I was on the phone with my fiancee during lunch a few hours ago discussing that very thing! I see my Dr. tomorrow and Im seriously contemplating on asking him if he can mandate a medical leave until my love arrives! My actual due date is May 10th so Im 14 days away, but Im just fed up at this point! I feel exhausted and , as you said, I feel like I should be at home nesting, getting ready for my little love instead of here!! By the time I get home, I fix home dinner for me and my fiancee and clean up - nesting and putting the finishing touches on my love's room is definitely out of the question! Im just so glad Im not the only one :')
  • Then today, I had a part-time worker who (obviously wasn't employed during her pregnancy) ask me if I've slept for 18 hrs straight, because if I haven't then my LO is definitely not coming yet!! -_- In my mind, Im like NO , I DONT HAVE THE LUXURY TO SLEEP ALL DAMN DAY!(despite feeling exhausted all day!) I have a full time job and stuff to get done in preparation for my little love , when Im not at work! -_-  Im just done lol
  • I. So done with dealing with students and drama. I'm so ready to be out. Im actually going to talk to my principal tomorrow to see if I can be done this Friday instead of next.

    That's my plan too. My kids are all being fairly good but every person I see in the hall had to ask how I'm feeling. I want to hide in my room so I don't have to see anyone! I don't think it's sunk into my high school kids yet. I said something about Thursday being my last day and they freaked. My due date is next Friday kids! Today could be my last day! I'm ready to be done!

  • Ladies... I'm not working anymore, but I feel for each of you. I quit in late March because my doctor changed me to high risk and I have two appointments every week. My job wouldn't work with me on days off and neither would my doctor.

    I was so done with that place anyway. The HR manager there told me in my first trimester that I either needed to take care of my job or take care of my child and my health. Who wants to work for a place like that?

    I teach kindergarten and this Friday will be my last day. I'm due the 7th, so it's not a huge break but I need it. This has been my worst year yet. Absolutely awful kids and sooo much stress. I've never been this ready to be done. It's seriously been the year from hell. Come Friday I'll be dancing out of that school! Until I have to go back this summer to move classrooms, but that's a whole other circus! Ugh! Come on, Friday!
