my mom is annoying
This is pretty much just a rant post, but my mom is getting on my nerves. I’m only 32 weeks and she keeps saying things like “Maybe the baby will come this week” “if the baby is born now it will survive” I know she’s excited but it just annoying. Why would you want that? Even if the baby is born now and survives it’ll probably spend time in the nicu. It makes me even more mad bc my cousin just had to have her baby taken by c section at 33 weeks and the baby had fluid on his brain and now has a tube in his brain that he’ll have to have the rest of his life. I know she doesn’t want anything to happen to the baby and she’s just excited but it really gets on my nerves. My pregnancy has been healthy the whole time and the baby has been healthy the whole time. I want my baby to be here too but not at the expense of her being born early and possibly having something wrong with her. I was telling her I was having some cramping and she was immediately like “we should go get checked out it could be the baby coming early.” then she started googling signs of early labor. I was telling her I was having ligament pains and she’s like “no those are contractions, we need to go to the er” 🤦♀️ She’s just getting on my nerves so bad. She also insists on going to every appointment with me since the baby’s dad is not involved and she always tells my doctors things that haven’t even happened. She told my doctor at my last appointment that I’ve been getting dizzy and passing out a lot, which I haven’t. And bc she said that I had to get unnecessary blood work done and check my sugar everyday. I’m probably just being a little dramatic but I’m getting to where I can’t stand her. she wants to argue with me about how i feel and what my body is doing and when i disagree with what she says she tells me that this is my first pregnancy and i don’t know what i’m talking about. like i’m pretty sure only i know how my body feels. she told me “i can tell by the look on your face that you’re hurting” yeah i’m hurting, all pregnant women hurt this far along but there is absolutely no sense in getting checked out when i’ve already been told that the way i’m feeling is normal, and as long as baby is kicking and seems okay i’m not going to worry about getting checked out until i know for a fact that i need to be, which hopefully isn’t going to be for another several weeks.
