FTM, due today, little rant

RAHHHHH okay so like so many of you I have been getting the onslaught of texts about baby all week. I've done some work on adjusting my perspective this week since over the weekend I focused on NOTHING but wanting to go into labor, which clearly didn't happen! I felt really discouraged and tried to change my mindset, he'll come when he's ready, I'm going to miss being pregnant, I can hang in there for a little longer, etc. but all the texts are KILLING ME. Esp the ones like, "So you're due tomorrow, when are they gonna induce you?!" OMG that makes me so angry. I just want to say, "hopefully not at all!!! And please F off."

Pretty much everyone in my/partners family have been telling me how I'm gonna feel, how labor is gonna be, how having a newborn is gonna be, as well, which is also driving me nuts. They're all very well meaning but it's gets pretty old. I understand I'm a FTM and they're trying help, but I just want to prepare for this my way and have my own experience!

Ugh I had to get that out ;;) headed to an appt for a non-stress test in about an hour, and then hopefully not murdering anybody since I got about 3 hrs sleep last night and feel like I got hit by a garbage truck.

    I know how you feel. My SIL has been texting me everyday, sometime several times a day, asking if I've gone into labor yet. I will tell you when I'm giving birth!

    Yessss! Mine comes in as "my recommendation...." I didn't ask for your recommendation on anything! Not my labor, C Section, who is taking pictures, my recovery, or my mucus plug! I had a family member tell me that I didn't lose my plug when I said that I had. My response, "I guess my vagina just has allergies!" Rant over...

    I feel ya! Good luck on your delivery, which will happen!

    I'm due today too and I've been getting no baby yet?! Comment from everyone. It drives me nuts especially when they then immediately follow up with asking if I'm going to be inclduced. Uh, no! It's only just now the ESTIMATED due date. I've also gotten a few people asking if I've lost my mucus plug yet. All I can think is eww gross why would you even want to know that.

    Good luck mommas. I hope we all have happy healthy little babies in our arms soon.

    We're all so close!  It helps me to remind myself that "I'm not gonna be pregnant forever."  It's nuts how fast this pregnancy has flown and since I hit 39 weeks time has STOPPED!

    Guess who annoys me the most? The people from the cord blood banking! They keep calling me and asking me if I've set a date already, and last week he called me on Thursday and literally said "but you know, the weekend is just around the corner! Are you sure you're not setting a date?" Is not a freakin' wedding dude, and if you don't like working on the weekends then get a different job.
