Quit asking whether the babys here yet!!!

[Mango34]

Is anyone else getting fed up with people asking whether your babys here yet? The constant stream of text's, facebook messages and phonecalls is reeeaally starting to get on my nerves! I know they mean well and they're just excited, But seriously after the 20th time it gets a little tedious!!
Or am i just being a miserable grouch?

Yeah i can imagine! Im glad im not the only one, starting to think i was turning into a bitter old hermit! I find it annoying when your on facebook and someone pops up like "oh is she coming yet?" im like "well i'd be at the bludy hospital, not sat on here talking to you!" x

im just getting fed up of ppl in general, feel like im carrying my son for everyone else. Lol step mum thinks shes taking him home. Wish ppl would just leave me alone to be honest. Lol

Im getting to be a serious grouch lol xx

Hey I have been feeling the same too!! I think because I want it to happen asap, then people reminding me that she's not here really aggreviates me! Plus people keep saying 'come on get a move on' like I have some sort of control over when this baby comes and I'm keeping it in on purpose. Like u say, I know people mean well but I have told friends and family a million times that I will let them know if anything happens...why don't they listen grrrrrrrrrrr!!

When you go into labour, give them a call in the middle of the night to 'update' them on your progress. Regularly, like every hour

'I'm 2cms! I'll call again when I'm 3!'

I haven't experienced this yet (although I'm sure I will!) but my best friend had her second baby last month...she said for the entire month leading up to the birth, every time her MIL would come over or call, she would ask "no baby yet??" It annoyed the crap out of my friend (understandably, I mean, what a stupid thing to say LOL), and finally one day she snapped "Yeah, it's upstairs!!" It finally shut her MIL up.

this is too funny! im going to do this!

i get texts and facebook messages all day. im only 2 days overdue too...ive been getting this for weeks now. yesterday one friend asked at 8 am and then again at 5 pm is there was a baby yet. seriously?! DH calls me several times a day, while im at work and cant really talk, to ask if im feeling anything. ummm...if i were, i would have called him already to come pick me up! i think its most annoying because the baby hasnt dropped and the doc is pretty sure ill be at least a week over and am probably looking at induction even. ive told everyone close to me this, but they still keep asking incesantly about if im feeling anything or if the baby is coming yet.

This is exactly how I feel - like I am just carrying this baby for everyone else to take away from me

 

[frsttimemommy]

agh i get the same way! i hate when people are introducing me and they say "this is Kalin and (points to my belly) this is my baby Trystin" i'm like uhm NO!! this is MY baby!! my OH's niece literally thinks i'm carrying this baby for her. or when people call themselves aunt or uncle and we aren't even related! like my friend is always saying "aunt maegan loves trystin" uhm..no. y'all are not even related and we don't even hang out! wtf?!

 

[BeanOnTheWay]

I am so glad I am not the only one!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know I am lucky to have such great family and friends, but I honestly just want to tell them to BACK OFF!! Don't you think if something were happening I would have called you? Leave me alone people. I have enough stress... okay, vent over. I would feel like a complete b**ch actually saying that to them so I don't. Oh, and I feel the same way about the "my baby" thing. Last time I checked, the only people who can say that are me and my husband, thank you very much. Lol, some people are crazy.

 

[Fiore]

I hate it when people presume they will be 'aunty Fanny' or 'uncle Bob' or whatever, it's like are you even related to me? No? Then I don't think so deary!

I'm sick of people saying "But you are so slim! Are you sure you are pregnant?" Good point, thanks random stranger I never thought that it may just all be wind. In fact, I will be in the labour ward and will probably let rip a big fart and oh! How we will all laugh as I wasn't pregnant at all... "Is the baby measuring OK?" No, but thanks for asking. I feel so much better now that you - a total stranger/aquaintance - knows of my deepest worries...

...Sorry, went off on one there lol!!xx

I can absolutely relate. I'm feeling almost kind of posessive, like I need to keep family away from my boy, which is ridiculous but they just won't leave me alone. It's almost like "when are you going to give birth to OUR baby?"

I don't feel like calling anyone, because it's all discussion about when baby's going to be here and then everyone feels they have to share their stories about being 2 weeks late and giving birth to a toddler.

Yesterday I called my MIL, but she didn't answer. She called back a few minutes later, out of breath, asking "are you having the baby?!?" Um, no, I'm making soup.

Lol this thread is hilarious. I can imagine how annoying it must be. My friend has just had a baby and I purposefully refrained from texting/facebooking etc and asking if she was in labour as I could imagine how annoying it'd be. I knew she'd tell me when it happened!
Our baby is expected early.. so I might well avoid the 'is the baby here' annoyance! It'll be quite cool to not tell many people when I do go into labour and just surprise everyone!

I'm not going to be telling anyone but immediate family, not even close friends otherwise they would all turn up at the hospital and I won't be afraid to use some colourful language to get rid of them. A scene I would rather avoid me thinks lol xx

 

[janinio87uk]

my mum keeps askin 'how's my baby??' and I KNOW she's referring to my baby and not me... drives me insane!! god knows how im gonna cope wiv her bein my birth partner

[Halley_Logan]

I'll post pics on facebook and all the comments are "so your still pregnant?" I even had one girl say "when he comes out he will have teeth and be talking." That ticked me off for some reason.
