@AB34 I was sure my baby would be early too.. SO and I were both early, both of my sisters were early, both of my nephews were early.. We still have 11 days but he's made it the longest of anyone in the family so far!
This morning. I wanted to eat an egg and cheese croissant but the breakfast grill was closed so I had to have a fruit and yogurt parfait. When I told DH I was crying over this he laughed at me.
Today I was running behind getting ready to leave to take DD to daycare. Couldn't find my keys (they ended up being in a boot), and then I managed to get stopped by the train and every red light possible. DD looked at me and said, "why crying, momma?"-- that didn't seem to help any
The bump just sent me an email congratulating me on my newborn! I don't have a newborn yet!! Some of us go overdue insentive email!!
That is insensitive! I don't want to get one of those emails due to the fact that I am most likely going to go past my due date as well .. FX it happens soon for you @Backbypopulardemand
@Backbypopulardemand that's messed up. TB is the TW today. I think probably half of us are going to go overdue since full term is such a huge period of time. Wtf.
Congratulations emails are bullshit- something like 65% will be after our due dates and I don't think being full term pregnant is known for comfort. That's a lousy assumption. Big hugs @Backbypopulardemand
When I subscribed to a pregnancy magazine early in my pregnancy I thought my due date was yesterday so they sent me a congrats and what to do now that baby is here... as I stare at him inside my belly.
Crying because I'm so tired but I can't get comfortable in my bed. Pregnancy pillow isn't helping. My neck hurts, my hip hurts, the stupid bed is too high and I am struggling! Currently in the guest bedroom trying to find a comfortable position in this lower and smaller bed. My poor husband feels so helpless.
Spent $430 for my two dogs at the vet for skin related issues and their meds last night! DH had to work his part time last so I had to wrangle two 30 pound frenchies that are not exactly the lightest dogs.....THEN, I come home having to give them medicated baths and ear meds for one......no big deal.....come home to about 100 of these flies all in my windows in the living room, dining room and kitchen.....have no clue where they are coming in from and it made me nutty since the cleaning and nesting is fully underway for LO! I FREAKED the hell out and pulled the vaccumm and literally for 2 HOURS sucking them up and cleaning all the bedding for my dogs to rid the yeast and bacteria! Still haven't eaten dinner either! I would never repeat yesterday on my worse enemy! From reading similar stories abt these f'in flies I think a mouse or little asshole critter might have perished in the wall and attracted these flies....no smell of anything but now as gross as it sounds, my home looks like Amityville Horror and I want to cry! Friggin NASTY!!!!
Just went to the worst Indian buffet ever, nothing was spicy at all and everything tasted the same and they were stingy with their naan and didn't even have yogurt sauce. wtf, I'm crying now.
@Kellyj103 Currently the same. I can't decide if it is the indigestion, baby moving, or my inability to breath that is keeping me up. Tried a million different things for the past 2.5 hrs and here I am. I just downed a bowl of cheerios hoping that will quiet my stomach!
Not pregnant anymore, but whoever coined the phrase "there's no use crying over spilled milk" was clearly never a mother and never knocked over a bottle of breast milk and lost half of it
I sleep for one hr stretches and am so over it. Between intense rib pain, bathroom excursions, gas, bh contractions, and just plain old restlessness I have never wanted sleep so badly. Never had this problem with dd's pregnancy I am either going to break something or cry.
Crying because I'm still pregnant. Crying because my doc made me schedule a c-section for 8/5 in case I go over my due date because I desperately want a VBAC. Crying because DH doesn't seem to understand.
Crying because I was so excited to find out I was 1cm dilated and 50% effaced at my 37 week appointment. As of yesterday (my 39 week appointment) I've made no additional progress. Even though the midwife was encouraging about how soft my cervix is, it hasn't actually done anything in 2 weeks. All of the BH and cramping has completely stopped in the last week as well. I feel like my body is going backwards and I don't know why.
@megstervt I can completely relate to the feeling of moving backwards. I had so many more BH earlier this month and now barely anything. So frustrating
Crying because it's my due date and I don't have a baby yet -.- obviously I know that many (especially first time) pregnancies are over due, but I am so done. I just want to meet him!!!
It feels like I'm never going to have this baby. All the pains and aches I've been having and they've turned into nothing. So frustrating. I'm so fed up, I think I might just hide in my bed until baby makes an appearance. Whenever that may be!
I bit off all my nice long nails over the weekend from anxiety wondering whether or not LO would come. LOL They were so bad I had to resort to paint them myself so I wouldn't spend money getting them done. Sacrificing mani $$ for daycare tuition! Good times!
@kellz14 I keep reading stories like that and hope it will happen. I'm thankful for the progress that has been made, but it's frustrating when I don't know why it stopped. Like my body got all excited and over-eager and then when it's supposed to be doing things is like "eh, I'm good"
With DD I had no progress till 40+6 and was 1cm. I went into.labor that night, was 5cm when we got to the hospital around 2am, and my DD was born within 11 hours.
