Is this happening to anyone else?

Question

I’m 37+6 and have people texting me EVERY single day asking what’s going on (aka they want to know if I’m in labor). Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the “concern”, but these are not people I even speak to on a regular basis and it’s honestly giving me anxiety. Is anyone else dealing with this? How do I handle it without being rude?!

Answer

My mother is horrible & shes been driving me crazy. Every.single.morning. "how do you feel" "can you go into labor today so I can call into work" believe me I am more than ready to have this little boy but I'll let you know when it's time or if I have any major changes that I believe are related to labor. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Good Luck mama, hang in there!

Answer

Yes I get people texting me everyday asking how I am which is really nice. However I do detect an underlying tone of ‘have you gone into labour yet?’. 
I’ve decided not to tell anyone when I’m in labour. Not even parents. They will be the first to know when baby is born but until then I want my husbands focus to be solely on me and being my birth partner, phones will be switched off.

Answer

Yep, 37.5 and I’ve just started ignoring it lolol. We already told everyone that we aren’t telling them when we go into labor so I think it’s funnier that they keep texting. So I’ve started ignoring them bc I don’t want them to be suspicious when I actually do go into labor haha

Answer

I’m only 35 weeks and I already have people asking me if she’s here yet. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

My mil texted me 37 + 3 and asked how I was feeling for the first time since my second month of pregnancy 😂 I wont be communicating labor or delivery until we are ready to see people.

Answer

If it's random people I don't respond. My family doesn't really ask because we speak enough they already know the answer. I don't have Facebook or social media though so I live happily in my private little bubble

Answer

No one has yet in this pregnancy. But with my first, it seemed everyone that even vaguely knew me was obsessed! I just ignored most of them. If it was family, I told them to stop texting and I or my hubby would let them know when the time came. We did make it clear we didn’t want visitors at the hospital anyway though, so they’d get a call after the birth and then we’d call again when we were ready for visitors at home.

Answer

I legit told my mum go stop texting me cos she was stressing me out. She wasn’t happy but I feel better 🤷🏼‍♀️
