AIBU?

To kind of believe this...

My mum works as a home carer. One of the ladies she goes to visit claims to have psychic abilities. I am currently 32+5 and the lady has told my mum I'm going to have the baby tomorrow. She went into great detail about how the birth is going to be.

I have told some people I know in person and some believe it and some don't.

I'm curious to know what others think and whether I'm deluded by thinking it may happen! Wink

You're deluded

The lady is deluded

The baby could arrive at any time.

Congratulations on your pregnancy Thanks

At 32+5 I'd be hoping to be deluded. Much too early, more cooking required.

nearly 2 months early? I am sure you hope she's deluded.

What a horrible thing to say to/about someone who is only 32 weeks pregnant!! Does she know that is all you are?

Ignore her - good luck with the baby when it does arrive Thanks

I hope you go to term. I think she sounds like a deluded bitch.

Obviously I'm worried about being only 32 weeks. She said baby would be fine though. Yes I have packed my bag Shock I would much rather have the baby at full term and I do hope tomorrow comes and goes. I wonder why she would say this and include as much detail as she did.

Why do you care about the ramblings of someone you don't know???

Because psychics are con artists, who prey on emotions.

Lonely?

Deluded?

Attention seeking?

MH issues?

The list is endless. Just ignore.

Well you and your Mum will know by Monday whether that she is a complete charlatan, then.

Do you have any medical history which could indicate a premature birth?

SaucyJack · 22/11/2014 11:37

If you update on Monday to say you've had the baby, then I might be interested.

Until then.....

Just ignore her.

If it will help OP, I will say the following

I have higher psychic powers than the other lady. Your child will be born when it's ready to be born and strongly suspect you'll be further along than now. And yes, the psychic powers are also saying all will be ok when it does happen.....

Does the lady have dementia?

APlaceInTheWinter · 22/11/2014 11:58

I hope she's not too upset if she's wrong! It's quite a detailed forecast, psychics are usually more circumspect.

I'd be both surprised and impressed if your DC comes tomorrow Smile

I am more clairvoyanty than any of you and I predict that when you give birth it will be a baby that is born.
It will arrive at the exact moment it is predestined to arrive.
I predict that the first thing your baby will do is cry.


How am I doing so far?

Refunds this way >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Grin

I am a bitShock that your mum told you what she said when you are only 32/33 weeks.

I don't know who is worse in this situation the lady for telling your mum or your mum for telling you. you are two months early not the time for all this rubbish

It is not going to happen. If the lady was truly psychic she would probably have told your mum to keep an eye on you or something vague like that.

Once I was in hospital and a rather eccentric old lady, predicted that a woman on the ward was pregnant and was going to have a girl. In fact it was a lady in her 50s with a very swollen tummy from liver disease caused by alcoholism.

A bloody psychic told my Mother a while load of bullshit and derailed what was going to be a perfectly lovely home birth.

Ignore, you will go to term.
