It seems that all the mommas are popping all of a sudden. I'm excited for them but a little envious, when is my little one gonna decide she's ready? Anyone else not having any symptoms of labor? All I've got is a SLOWLY thinning cervix and lots of back pain and pelvic pressure...
I'm so thankful to have made it to 40 weeks with my healthy little girl, I would just like it if she would come out now...
I have been wanting a homebirth since before I got preggo, actually since I had ds in the hospital I knew I wouldn't ever do that again, but things are stressful at home and I almost want to ditch my family and go birth in a hospital just for some peace.
My hubby and I are sharing an apt with my mother, so long as everyone is working its no big deal but my mom and I work in the school district and are out for the summer. Sooo we are both at home all day and mostly its ok but its when she starts telling me what to do that there is a problem.
Like she tells me I shouldnt buy so many toys for my son (only recently been buying him a few things here and there because he is growing out of his old toys which are pretty much all hand me downs anyways) she also gets on me about the electricity being used even though I pay the bill however much it is... I run a night light and a fishy light in my son's room during the night because we are transitioning him out of our room and into his own and he is terrified without those. After I leave him she goes in and turns them off! Ugh Its so annoying! She also doesnt like our dog and we've gotten into a couple tiffs because she wants us to get rid of it or we clearly dont love her.... (honestly the dog is very dumb, we have had a very unsuccessful time training her and were going to try a training colar as a last resort, but hubby just doesnt want her anymore) She is also onto me that I need to be cleaning more, to get ready for baby and just in general, yet she doesnt help with any of it. She also keeps telling me how to "handle" my son that I shouldn't let him do this or that or she lays down some rule without talking to me and suddenly I have to enforce it even when I dont agree with it...
I am so sick of living with mom I wonder if that's why baby hasnt come yet, I just dont feel like birthing around my mom right now I am so irritated with her.
I've been angry with hubby too mostly over little things but a few that he just hasnt changed yet (like actually cleaning the dishes when you wash them instead of leaving food still on them and saying they are clean, or putting a pitcher of lemonade back in the fridge when it has sat out for what like 4 days!) grrr.
Ds has been throwing temper tantrums for the past 6 months (this is because my sister came and took my nephew who my mother and I have raised the past 4 years, he and Timothy are 9 weeks apart and have been like twins, my sister is evil and decided that Timothy is no longer allowed to see his cousin. So Timothy is emotionally confused and distraught over this thus the tantrums).
I am so tired of the people in my home I just want to run away, I want so badly to take Timothy and go camping but I have no idea when I'm going to pop so that probably isnt a great idea although I am desperate to get away even if its just for a few days.
Well with that off my chest I feel a little bit better...
Thanks for listening.

oh mama, I can relate, as I am living with my mom right now too. I get to leave in the fall, and can't wait to have my own space and my own nest.
at your DH, though. Men are so clueless.
