  I'm sorry, this just sounds a little bit selfish to me. When I opened this I thought you were going to say you hope the baby didn't come today because of something that would be detrimental to you giving birth. I would be happy and grateful that if you do go into labor you are full term, your boyfriend can be with you, and you aren't stuck somewhere far away from home or something.

  Always hold on to hope ❤

  Then let me be selfish for a day. I spent all day yesterday bawling my eyes out being an over emotional mess because my boyfriend has been working 7 days a week and I haven't been able to spend more than an hour with him a day since I started my FMLA leave. We haven't had any time alone together in months and I would like to enjoy one last night alone before things change forever.

  I don't think this makes her "selfish" per say. My husband works and goes to school full time, so I hardly ever see him.. And being pregnant all by yourself (I don't know anyone down here in Fl yet) can really mess with your emotions/mind. I was SOOO clingy bc I never saw him, and I was scared to be pregnant. When he told me we would try to have one last "date night" (an anniversary weekend) I was so extremely happy and it made me not feel borderline depressed! It's like I had tons of pressure, and that little weekend was a huge release valve for me before baby came. I don't think by hoping that her baby waits one more day, it means she would be ungrateful if he/she DID end up coming.. But more like she needs some reassurance and comfort before that big day, bc it IS a huge change! This is how it was for me, at least.

  I don't feel like it's selfish. In fact I'm saying those prayers too. I'm hoping my LO will wait until at least Sunday. My nephews birthday is this weekend and I would hate to take any attention away from him. I also have a date night with my hard working hubby and just want to enjoy our night out together. Obviously, if your LO decides they are ready and today is the day, there is nothing that can be done and I doubt you would be unhappy or pout about it, but it's ok to be "selfish," and hope today is not the day.
