I am 39+5 today and incredibly over being pregnant. At my 39 week appointment I was 50% effaced but my cervix was was still high and not dilated. My due date is Monday and I have an appointment where I'm hoping I'm dilated enough to do a sweep. Otherwise my doctor scheduled me an induction on the evening of 12/23.

I was really hoping this baby would come spontaneously so I could avoid the induction if possible, and I know it still could, so I'm trying to do everything I can to get things going (to no avail) and not think about how uncomfortable I am or how much I just want to meet my baby.

My husband's family is very excited (as we all are) but I feel like I'm losing my mind in a way ... I'm sure you can all relate, I'm so uncomfortable and frustrated and OVER being pregnant. My mother in law lives in a different state and we've promised to let her know as soon as anything happens but that hasn't stopped her from messaging me and my husband every single day this week asking for information when there is none.

I know it's my lack of patience right now but does she seriously think we're going to FORGET to tell her we're having the baby?!? I have repeatedly told her we will let her know but she's still doing it, and when I'm trying to not think about it, it serves as a reminder and I'm so frustrated I could cry.

Anyone in a similar position?? What did you say to family that constantly asked about the status of your delivery???? Help meeee
