So I'm aggravated. My friend had her baby a week early on December 20th. With her being in the hospital for 3 days, and then the holidays happening, and then all my OB appts and studying and my national CCHT exam I haven't gone out in ages. She is angry at me now because she saw that I went out Sunday with someone else, once again after not going out or seeing anyone for the last month at least. I figured calling someone with a 3 week old baby and saying "hey you wanna go to lunch, and then bowling?" was pointless. Now she's mad that I haven't come to meet her baby, when DH doesn't want me to go anywhere without him this late in my pregnancy unless it's a quick run to the store, and he gets home late during the week. Plus I generally just feel like crap and don't want to go anywhere anyway. We've been talking via phone this entire time without an issue. I just can't believe rather than being a big girl and answering her phone when I tried to call her to talk it out now, she decided to ignore my calls, and put up a passive aggressive Facebook status instead. We have talked since then, but only via text. I just want to know when a 9 month pregnant lady wanting to get lunch was this big a deal. Or why she thinks this has ANYTHING to do with her. I get that she is upset that I haven't come to meet her baby yet, but I'm not going to invite myself over, and never once did she call or text and say "hey come meet the baby" I'm going to assume that when Piper is 3 weeks, I'm not going to want people stopping by constantly or inviting themselves to come over.

Re: Just Need To Vent!
Yup hormones.
Your hubby won't let you go anywhere without him though? How far away does your friend live?
Her house puts me 90 minutes from the hospital. He's being overly paranoid about everything. He gets worse the closer my due date gets too, because he is constantly convinced if I move or do anything that my water will break. I keep trying to tell him that even if it breaks we still have time to get to the hospital, but he's not buying it. It's kinda cute, but annoying all at once. lol

Well that makes sense then! Yup, I wouldn't go either! That's not overly paranoid, that's smart!
I was thinking it was like 5 minutes away and he wouldn't let you go. My doctor said that I shouldn't be more than 1 hour away from the hospital 37 weeks on. You can use that excuse. 
I went everywhere I wanted right up until my induction. The day before I was induced I went to Walmart (about 40 minutes from the hospital) and walked around, trying to go into labor on my own lol. I can agree 90 minutes is pretty far away, but if you were to go into labor, chances are you would have plenty of time to get to the hospital.
I agree about the hormones with your friend, she is probably just emotional.
Yeah, I went to a cheerleading comp that was 6 hours away when I was 38 weeks.
However, I wouldn't want to be in a car in labor, even when it was first starting out, blegh.
