I am 39+3 and my mum is starting to drive me mad. She rings twice a day, for a "have you gone into labour yet" check in and has done so since I was 38 weeks. She has asked me to call her the second I go into labour (the second, not five minutes into labour, not an hour into labout just to make sure it really is labour! But the absolute second!) so that she can begin the journey to me (she lives 3 hours away). Bear in mind that I hope to stay at home for as long as possible and I don't want her here whilst I'm labouring, nor do I want her in the delivery room when we do get to the hospital. I want it to just be me and my partner, and she knows this. She really is driving me made, how do I deal with her?!? I've told her I will call her as soon as I feel for sure I'm in labour and that she can be the first person (after myself and partner of course) to see and hold the baby, what more does she want??! ARGH.
