Last day of work and I am working from home....I feel very guilty but I fear thing are starting and in a office full of men doesn't sound like the best place to get this party started.
I'm just 40 weeks today, but I almost had to delete this app the other day because the amount of people having their babies before their due date was pissing me off. Every check I've had nothing has changed and I honestly feel like my body is betraying me. Seeing all the dilation and effacement and early baby posts were getting to me. I'm ok now, though. I've come to terms with going past my due date.
Today is my last day of work. And I am suddenly having guilt for leaving them for 6 weeks. We're a small office and have had BIG turnover in the last couple of months( a few didn't matter but one was a major shock/slap in the face) and I am the only person that knows how to do everything(not tooting my own horn its the truth). I am worried things will fall apart when I'm out.
WTF is wrong with me I should be concentrating on my new baby!
I secretly want to smother my husband when he says comments about having sex and acts like its solely for my benefit to have the baby. And even though he knows it's most likely not going to happen, he still says something 4-5 times a day and wonders why I roll my eyes at him! Ugh stop already. I feel like I swallowed a beach ball. I've gained 70 lbs and it feels like my pubic bone is literally pulling apart! Yes let's get busy babe! Ugh... Men
I want SO to have sex with me all the time. I don't have the confidence to be on top any more, any time I try I feel huge. But I want him to jump me all the time. Part of it is because I'm horny and the other part is I hope it helps move baby along.

I was the same way. As soon as I held baby girl, I no longer cared
My FFFC is I read all of the 'am I in labor' 'is my baby coming' threads hoping for some snark. I miss our early regs who would tell it like it is.....none of us know if you are in labor or how/if/when your baby will come!!!

I want to do SOMETHING this weekend but I have 2 sick kiddos so the chances of us paying a babysitter area pretty much nil. EDD is the 28th but guessing I will go late. Still, I want to go get my hair washed (don't need a cut yet), have a pedi, and a massage. Please!?!?!?!?!
I yelled at my husband last night. I have never done this. My husband and I never argue and don't fight. Sure we have disagreements and normal heated conversations. Last night he kept asking for sex and kept touching my boobs. I went off on him cause he wouldn't take no for an answer. My boobs feel awful and anything touching them bothers me. And sex is the last thing I want after a painful membrane sweep a few hours earlier. I cried after I yelled at him and he apologized but I still felt bad for coming unglued like that.
People who come in and post from November saying "I guess I'm an October mom now!" because they had their baby early make me want to cry or smack them.
I am so excited for the moms who have had their babies, and I am finally 39 weeks, but it's getting lonely with no one posting/commenting about still being pregnant because most people have had their babies.
I know that I am going to be sad/pissed when friends (in RL) who were due around or after me have their babies before me.
Also, I am not overdue yet and I am actually glad to have made it to 39 weeks because it means I've had a good healthy pregnancy, but when people comment in the overdue thread and they're not actually overdue it makes me very angry for those who are overdue. It's not the same!

I agree, our close friends were due four days after us and had their baby two weeks ago! I cried....I felt like an idiot for crying but I was suppose to go first. Lol. Now my induction date is thier due date and I am kind excited that if she doesn't come on her due date (today) she could come on her future Bff's date instead!!
My friend came and took me out to lunch yesterday, and I left DD home with grandma (mother-in-law). I cried when I left her, we were literally only gone for an hour.
I don't trust my mil with my son. We have a good relationship but she likes to drink so that makes me worry. I'm just not there yet AT ALL! I think it bothers my husband but I can't help how I feel.

Um, right there with you. Drinking and babies do not mix. I would say no too.
I'm sending DS to stay with his grandparents for a week because DD (who is all of 17 days old) has a cold and trying to take care of a sick newborn and a high energy demanding 3 yr old is more than I can handle. I still feel like crying because I'm going to miss him so much!!

Yeah. I feel bad because her grandkids love her sooooo much but I just can't trust that she'll be smart enough to not drink when she was watching him....she probably wouldn't get drunk with him but its the principal of it that gets to me. My husband says I'm too overprotective but I don't really care right now!

Aww that stinks that the baby is sick. Just think of it as you're saving him from getting sick too.
My baby is 10 days old and my mil came to see her for the first time yesterday. She told dh she was waiting until yesterday bc she had a drs. appt and wouldn't have drank any that morning so she'd come see her right after. She got here, held her for like 2 minutes, then said well I'm dying to have a cigarette so I've got to go. Really!? Drinking is so important to you that you won't refrain from being drunk long enough to see your grandchild and you can't even stay and visit for more than 5 minutes.

You lost me at "probably wouldn't get drunk with him". My mom takes heavy narcotics for a health condition, and I won't leave her alone with the baby once he's born, period. It might cause hurt feelings, but the baby's well being is 100000X more important. Make sure you and your DH are on the same page here, there should be no compromise when it comes to your child's safety.
