to be bloody miserable if i want to

[biddysmama]

baby is 9 days overdue

apparently i should cheer up, im going to have a baby eventually

i think they should leave me alone to wallow in my misery like the hippo i am

yes i know i am btw

hey this takes me back! I remember feeling exactly the same and even when my mum came round to see me she got the sharp end of my tongue and then I burst into tears..

Hope it all goes well for you+

YANBU.

Babies have an allotted time slot in your body and yours is outstaying its welcome in there! Perhaps it heard about the snow and thought it'd wait until it had passed?

I think you should be allowed to wallow and complain loudly and have your every whim attended to.

And if it's already 9 days overdue, it won't be much longer now. Good luck! x

Sorry OP, chuckling here. Mine was in no rush either!

You wallow as much as you want

Wallow away! Thatøs whet MN is for!

I hated it so much when I was in my last few weeks, and you know that awful heaviness and tiredness and all around fed up and grumpiness? DPs auntie kept saying to me 'You're young, you should have loads of energy!' when I was knackered and waddling around at 39+ weeks and when asked how I was replied 'Absolutely shattered and want to go to bed'. Yes I might have been young but that has absolutely bugger all to do with being massively pregnant.

YADNBU your uterus is not a stay as long as you like hotel for babies

I cried every day when I went OD with my DD I went 11 days so I basically sobbed non stop the whole time! your baby WILL be along shortly but until then you can reserve the right to be as miserable as you like

Get in the bath, hang your leg over the side, and shout "Swim Toward the LIGHT"

No ofcourse you are not being unreasonable - whoever tells you to stop wallowing however is being very unreasonable and should expect their head to be bitten off

Be fair, would you want to leave a nice warm womb in this weather if you had the choice?
