Ahh! That is pretty much the general statement. I am 39.5 weeks pregnant and thought I was going to have the baby at 36.5 weeks when I first went into the hospital. I am having terrible anxiety and frustration. I am getting frustrated that the baby is not here yet.. I know that these things are unpredictable, but it’s gotten to the point where I am just plain tired of being pregnant….. I do enjoy the free time that I have before the baby gets here, but every five minutes my family and friends want to know when the little guy is coming. The doctor tells me that the higher my stress and anxiety level the longer it’s going to take for labor to start… but I have run out of ideas.. it seems the littlest things set me off to be angry, anxious, or cry…. anyone else having this or had this? I’ve tried breathing techniques, I’ve tried changing my focus, but it all leads back to the beginning. Advice??
My last pregnancy i was so like you i wanted him out i even tried all the old wives tales to bring me on like drinking caster oil and hot bathes walking it felt pointless and the day i gave up is the day i went into labor so i dare say your baby is stubborn like mine was he will come when he is ready hun until then just relax a little it will all workout in the end.
