Almost at 40 weeks and getting so frustrated at people checking up on me!

Needing a rant!

I'm 39+5 and every day I get texts asking if there's any news or if I'm having 'twinges', and if I don't reply people think I must be in labour and proceed to call or ask my family members 😩 not even at my due date yet and it's been like this for a week! I had a nap yesterday afternoon so didn't look at my phone for a few hours and my friend assumed I was in having the baby.

Feel like it's really getting me down. How do others handle the constant stream of annoying 'check in's'? We've already agreed not to tell people when I go into labour. Just want to hide away and turn off my phone but I'd honestly give it a day before people would turn up at our house.

"We'll let you know when he/she arrives, don't worry!"

Unfortunately, it does get really irritating. Next time, we won't tell anyone the due date!

Good luck for when it happens Smile

I replied to these messages last time saying 'I swear the more people pester me the longer it'll take Smile'
