Gosh it's hard to PLAN things!!

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I ran into the director of the Deaf Community Resource Center at the grocery store today, and we were talking (well, signing) about two events DCRC is hosting this weekend. My family *always* goes to DCRC events, the more exposure we can get to ASL, the better for Connor. Anyway, she wanted to know if we'd be there and if my husband could help with setup, etc. I hate that I can't say yes or no!! Will I have the baby by then? Will I still be in the hospital? Will I still be pregnant?????

Ian has a soccer game and team pictures this weekend, too, and I'm worried about him missing that if I'm in labor. If the baby is already born, then no problem, my hubby takes him (or my mom, who is making the 6 hour drive as soon as I go into labor).

I have to meet with the transportation supervisor for Connor's school Monday morning to discuss an issue we're having regarding the carseats on the school bus, and I just typed up a long email to my mom in case she's the one here and not me.

Four of my coworkers are running in the Air Force Marathon this weekend and I asked their goal finish times so I can cheer them on at the finish line (pout pout, *I* was supposed to run in the race again this year, but not going to happen obviously since I'm 9 months pregnant!!) and now I don't know for sure that I can be there.

GAH!!!

I know that there's always a certain amount of unknown at the end of a pregnancy, no one knows exactly when they'll deliver (if they go naturally) but I honestly thought I'd go by now since my other two were born early, so none of these events/issues this weekend and next week would have been a problem. Now I feel like I'm scrambling trying to come up with Plan Bs.

SIGH.

I know the feeling. Ds's birthday is Saturday and I did not plan a thing. I may call a last minute cupcake party but I even hesitate to that. We have already celebrated it and have had 4 other parties (for others Dh,myself and my nieces) this week. I do not think he will even notice. Then on Tueday I have a meeting about starting the leadership process for LLL. If it does not happen Tuesday I doubt I will ever get the process going. I am sure their are more things I just can't think of them right now.

I am planning, planning, planning. At this point I say no to nothing! That way I am sure to go into labor! If I have to cancel, so be it! I believe no one will hold it against me if I don't show up for something.

I know how you feel... I'm trying to find someone to take my pregnancy photos at this point (long story) - and my BFF can't come down til Tuesday, IF then. So I finally called my SIL and asked her if her teenager wanted to make $20 and shoot some photos - but she's working tonight and they're out of town tomorrow, so we have to hope I don't go into labor by Saturday and we'll do it then.

Also... people at work are asking me why I am still here... but, I really think I would go crazy waiting at home... so, planning things keeps me busy, and keeps my mind off of the impending! ...I'm not real good at waiting...

Speaking of plans... I have a hosp. tour ( I know - late!) on Saturday morning, as well as a BBQ with friends that afternoon... Sunday is my last Bradley class... breastfeeding and baby-wearing... need to find something to do tomorrow since I have the day off... hmm...
