This is why I'm anxious - vent
in GP Moms
I called my mom earlier to let her know about the induction date and she just called me back. Months ago she scheduled a vacation from work for this coming week because of my due date and the induction happens to fall on the last day of her vacation.
When I told her the date, she instantly sounded disappointed and said "Oh, really? They won't do it earlier in the week?" I told her, "No mom. There's no need, he is healthy and doing fine there would be no reason to." She replied, "Well I know but Sunday will be the end of my vacation from work..."
DH's mom also expressed how it didn't match her schedule. She and my FIL live out of state and our nephew (in our state) has a football game this Friday. She has told me all weekend that "it would be nice if you could go into the hospital on Thursday so we could be in town for the baby and the game."

I miss wine.

Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
Waiting on my baby girl
EDD 2/5/14
To make you feel my love.
Ugh. I'm pissed and want to turn my phone off until he's born. Lol
ETA: not to mention, we aren't accepting visitors until after he's born and we've had an hour or so with him anyway and everyone knows this. If she really wanted to plan ahead she should have planned her vacation for November anyway. Annoyed.

I also think people sometimes ask pregnant women "is there a baby yet!?" to make small talk. I vow to never irritate another woman with that obnoxious question ever again.
I'm sorry you're dealing with this. That sucks.
