I am sooooo cranky - impending labor, maybe?

[ladybugchild77]

or just wishful thinking??? My poor dh...I am just in such a bad mood - and I can't seem to change my frame of mind. I want a whole pint of Ben & Jerry's Phish Food - maybe that will change my outlook on life...My ankles are the size of my head - so are my fingers, my back hurts, my hips ache, I feel like I am waddling...grrrr...vent vent vent...thanks - I feel better...Off to put dd to bed and then to the store for some ICE CREAM!!! Anyone else just NOT themselves???

Uh,yep.Really cranky for the past week really and totally off kilter.My husband just asked me if he could go to a play with his mom an hour away while he left me with all 4 kids and a week overdue and i freaked out on him and locked myself in my room and cried.Ok,actually i think that in itself was super selfish of him and i believe my response was more then fair on my behalf Freakin men sometimes,yah know?My swelling too is awful.The temp just rose to the high 80's and is supposed to be that way all weekend and i am so horribly swollen.And the baby keeps pressing on a nerve that travels down my leg and renders me unable to walk.And i just ate an Almond Joy and 2 pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and feel like a wee lil piggy So now i am off to make fried plantains,black beans and chicken for dinner!

Um it is ok to vent here,right?I didn't mean to take over,sugar rush

Oh and i don't know about you but i would not want to go into labor with that Phish Food in my belly.Ice cream gives me the worst gas pains which incidentally makes me think i am having labor pains which is frustrating : Maybe you are lucky not to have that issue

Oooh, I was in SUCH a bad mood this morning! I was walking in a gorgeous park listening to funky latin music (my favorite), the weather was perfect, and all I could think about was HOW PREGNANT I am! I mean come on, I'm 42+ weeks now - isn't that enough? And my midwives, husband, mother, neighbors, friends, and even strangers keep telling me "babies come when babies come." :

Enough already!!!!

I have to say though, I am feeling better now. Chocolate helps.

hehehe - I wish that meant impending labor! I've been cranky and tired off and on for a few days now Eventually I can blame it on labor! Hang in there (and I love phish food).

I told everyone to expect me to become progressively more cranky after the 19th! (tentative DD) When oh when will you show yourself, baby?! I want to meet you! I want to know who you are . . . technically my due date could be the 23rd. So I guess if baby's not here by then I will just have to get cranky about it.

ETA: YES -- Chocolate helps!!!

sure is great to hear others are as crazy as I am feeling too! I knew I had lost it when I was squawking to my husband about the spoons and forks he put away incorrectly after I had cleaned the fork drawer....I was so mad about the stupid forks!
Then today he put away (or didn't) some coats which should go in the closet, but he put them on the floor in a pile ( a neat pile reallly)....Fortunately for him, I kept my rantings to myself and practiacally ran to the bag of choc. chips that I have almost completely eaten myself (so much for making cookies).
Today too, I simply wanted a shower. I had been out with my 2 1/2 year old son and when I went to the bathroom I had a lot of mucus stuff....ALOT....made me wonder if my bag of waters was leaking...anyway, my pants were wet, I was miserable and I just wanted some peace and quiet, so DH left me, to go to the gym and watch the football games,: with my two kids to take a peaceful shower...So...my son runs in and out the entire 2 minutes of my relaxing shower, my 5 1/2 year old daughter is also in and out with very important thoughts she HAS to share.....I just want peace and quiet! At least I feel cleaner now!

AHHH, I feel better getting all that off my chest!

I'm glad not to be the only one cranking along today.

I've actually be doing pretty well about being so flippin overdue (I am finding it impossible to leave out the "so flippin" part lately ). But I'm just in a petty, pouty mood today.

I will have to break out the chocolate again tonight, too, I guess!
