I got 3 "Where is the baby???" calls today.
: And nobody even knows my EDD! My brother was like, "No, but SERIOUSLY, Katie, when is the baby coming?" I think he thought I was being coy when I said I had no idea. I explained how normal pregnancy lasts 38-42 weeks, blah blah. And he was like, "Well, I just have a lot of stuff to do in the next couple of weeks and I am curious as to when the baby is going to be born!" I was like, "Ummm, if it was up to me, I'd have a 2 week old, ok?" 
He also told me that my GRANDPARENTS, who are in their 70s, are all kinds of wigged out about how the baby is not going to fit down MY birth canal. Apparently, my family finds it completely appropriate to talk about the size of my vagina to one another. I was like, "Do they know something that I don't about my yoni???" And my brother said, "Well, you know.....they think Lucy couldn't fit, so this baby won't either, and you're having this homebirth..." They think I am being a real moron even attempting a VBAC, let alone at home.
Ugh! I just want to lock myself in a closet alone and come out when I have had my baby.
To top it all off, I have to go to yet another prenatal tomorrow and talk about how nothing has changed, how many BHs I am still having, blah blah. It's a depressing thought.

my in-laws haven't mentioned my nether regions per se but they seem quite freaked out that i'm past my EDD.

A baby is full term on the baby's terms! Why does everyone keep saying full term is 38 weeks? because that's when the lungs are done cooking? or cause that's when it's ok to have a section? I don't get it? I asked my mw, and she said full term is 40...
