38 weeks and 2 days and turned into the woman from hell, also panicking about when it will happen! Hand holding needed!

So, I have turned into a miserable woman who is stressing with everyone, although I have reason to stress with hubby!

Also panicking now about when it will happen. My parents go away with my eldest on the 3rd for the weekend and on the same day my hubby is off into London for the Olympics. I am stressing and no-one see's it as a problem!

Due date is 11th but 2 of mine have been 7/8 days early.

Help, relaxation needed!!!!

I'm torn over how to answer you. I want to help you relax and worry less, but at the same time, I totally understand where you're coming from and I don't think you're being unreasonable to worry. I wouldn't have liked it at all if my main supports were not around so close to due date. Olympics obviously can't be postponed - can your parents' weekend away be postponed? Failing that, have you got close friends on hand? I'm sure your parents and hubby will have their mobiles to hand at all times, just in case.

That said, it's unlikely that you'll go into labour on exactly that day. It'd be nice to have reassurance for "just in case", but you'll prob be fine and just have a nice relaxing day to yourself which will probably do you the power of good. :)

Parents are taking my eldest to France for 3 days so it's all organised. I will be left with 3 kiddies still!

Mobiles will be at hand and I know it probably won't happen that day, just can't shift this feeling!

Even my friend that lives over the road is away on hols. I have my Aunt on stand by for looking after children if needed but I need my hubby!!

I'm a ball of stress to (37weeks) I just keep snapping at everyone and the piles of mess in the house are really annoying me- silly things like piles of paperwork and magazines that I can't bend over to pick up are totally stressing me out!

My dh is going to the Olympics on Friday- all day till evening. He's promised to keep his mobile to hand. I'm not to worried- but then I was 5 days late with dc1.
