My mom calls me every day to see if i've felt "any twinges". It's driving me crazy. We have caller id so I know it's her and if I don't answer she just keeps calling but won't leave a message. Then today she called and we were talking about how at my next appointment we're going to schedule my induction for friday or monday and she says "try to set it up for monday. I have to work friday, saturday and sunday". I said if given the choice I was going with friday and she says "no, do it monday". She knows she's not coming in the delivery room and I don't want her hanging around at my house in the days after, she knows nick and I want our privacy and alone time to spend with our new baby so I don't know why she needs the day off while i'm in the hospital. She can come visit in the evening! It's gotten to the point where if she doesn't call one day I start to wonder what's wrong.

People are weird.

Do it on .Friday. I hate that whole "have it when it's a good time for me" thing.

It's not mean. Her mom can be excited as much as she wants, but to ask .Bridget to keep .Finn in until .Monday when she's beyond uncomfortable and has a shot at having him three days earlier, on top of calling every single day... It's a bit much.

She already said she loves her mom and knows she's excited. But it *is* about her and .Nick, and ultimately it's their decision and they shouldn't be told to change their decision for someone else's convenience.

exactly! Thank you!

I want her (as well as my dad and brothers) to visit in the hospital after the baby is born. I just don't want her hovering around out in the hallway or popping into my room unexpectedly. Nick and I want to spend the first few days home with our new baby just the three of us. After we have some alone time my mom is welcome to come over whenever she wants, especially after nick goes back to work and i'm home alone. I'm not trying to be mean, she's had her babies and now it's my turn.

Oh, the other thing that got me was when she said "i wish you'd had a shower, my friends were really looking forward to it". Maybe she could've started a new tradition of a "grandmother shower". Then she brings me a gift her friend gave her and the card says "to kathie and baby" (kathie is my mom), that struck me as a bit odd.

Just smile and nod! Ignore every word that comes out of peoples mouths! You know a friend of mine was late like you and her and her husband had sex and contractions came like that night, and she had her daughter the next morning. So maybe it'll work for you as well. Smile

We've been having sex against my husband's will lol (he thinks we'll hurt her) and it's not working. I have one big contraction after I orgasm and then nothing.

I wanted to have sex last night but I was denied, nick was tired and surly. Then he emailed me today from work and told me he wanted to do it this morning but didn't think i'd appreciate being woken up that early. I told him he didn't have to wake me up, he could've just done his thing! We're definitely doing it tonight. I'm in it for the semen, he's up for it because who knows how long it'll be before we can do it again.

I've also heard that the woman having an orgasm counteracts what the semen is supposed to do. Anyone know if that's true? Tmi, but every time we have sex he gets me off first and lately i've just wanted him to do his thing and see if the semen=labor thing is true but I don't want to hurt his feelings and be like "skip that, just stick it in and get it over with".

I feel a little "off" tonight anyway. Maybe finn's coming soon!

I don't think they would counter-act each other. Doesn't an orgasm help move the semen along further, anyway?

Anyway, fingers crossed that your little man introduces himself soon!

Orgasms cause the uterus to contract. You want that.

Semen can help to ripen the cervix.

Have fun!

Yeah, my husband's scared to hurt her, but the way I look at it, you never know when we'll be able to do it again. I try to bribe him into it about once a week. Lol sometimes I feel like he's not attracted to me b/c my belly's so big and it hurts my feelings. I guess he's sincere when he says he doesn't want to hurt her.

Also try (sorry if tmi but worked for a friend of mine ) having him in better terms breast feed on you Embarassed it gets things contracting down low my dr also told us that when my 2 child was due that trying nipple stimilation helps.
