Hysterical crying... DH and Baby related

I'm sorry to be posting so much today, but I don't know what else to do right now.

DH just text messaged me to tell me his days off are changing to Thursdays and Fridays instead of Mondays and Tuesdays.  

Most would think no biggie... but all of my remaining OB appts are Tuesdays because he swore to me that would stay his day off.

My OB books months in advance so I can't change my appointments. This means I will have to go to all my appointments alone for the rest of this pregnancy. I don't even know how I am going to do this as I am not allowed to drive.

I cant stop crying... I am so sad, mad, hurt! I don't know what to do now.

  • Awe, honey, it's ok to cry sometimes.  Would it be possible to call the doc's office, explain the situation and ask them if there is any chance another patient would be albe to switch with you? you never know, someone may be able to switch. If somoene called me and said: hey can we swap your thursday appt for a tuesday, I wouldn't care.  give it a try

    Is the doc's place too far to take a cab? At least you would not have to stress about driving.

    Everything's going to be ok. I am so sorry you are crying :(

  • Everybody needs a good cry sometimes Storm.  Plus you have baby hormones, so it's doubly ok!

    I would take e's advice and just try to change the appointments.  Or else, set up a driving service to take you to the OB from now on.  I bet a car service with chauffeur isn't much more expensive than a cab!  Seriously. It really isn't where I live.

    Spoil yourself if you can.  Set up a service, and ride to those appts in style! 

  • Sounds like you got some good advice from the girls!  I think asking about changing the appointments is always a possibility - all they can say is no.   And then a cab or car service would work.  But I know how much I love it when H can come to appointments with me.  I am always sad when he can't. 

    I also always cry these days when something that I've planned isn't going to work out all of a sudden.  I think it's just part of those pregnancy hormones.

  • D cannot change appointments. The issue with taking a cab is at each appointment I have the possibility of being sent to the hospital to deliver. The appointments are very stressful and I need my husbands support, which now cant happen.
  • Awe, how about every time you have an appointment you remind us all here, and we send you all the nestie vibes we can squeeze out? :)

    I know you said you live pretty far from your families, but do you have any friends who could go with you instead? Maybe just having someone close would help?

    It's going to be good... didn't your doctor say she needs you to stay pregnant till Xmas? it's only one more month - it's going to be alright!!
