Scared of being homealone and going into labor(FTM here)

So my due date is next Saturday & as we get closer I'm starting to get scared. I live with my SO but his boss has him going in & out of town and sometimes his cell won't get. My mom has been so busy lately because my grandpa just passed away and she is organizing everything so sometimes she doesn't answer. I mean, call me weird but I'm more scared of being home alone and no answers me than the actual labor pain. I'm starting to get anxiety about it. What's wrong with me?!

I'm a FTM too, baby now 9weeks. I started labor when I was home alone and it was great! No one to piss me off, I called my bf and mom and got in the shower to get ready for the hospital and timed my contractions. Just get everything ready now and put it in one place so you can point and say take those cuz you won't want to help load! I got dressed and got in the car 45 minutes later we were at the hospital and I was 6 cm!

Same issue here ! I live in Ohio by Husband travels for work , and ALL of my family lives in Michigan. My doctor offered to induce me simply because that gives Hubby the chance to tell his job this day is BDAY lol , and my family as well so they can all prepare to make sure they're there . I would talk to your OB about maybe doing the same .

Nothing's wrong with you. It's totally understandable that you want to be able to reach people when that time comes. Just tell them both how you're feeling so they know to reach out and check on you when they can the closer you get to your date
