Due early July, and starting to totally stress out. We are hoping to move apartments in early July. DS (22 months) is starting camp at the end of June and is so shy. What will I do with DS when I go into labor? How will I get everything settled at work before starting maternity leave? Ahhh!!! These questions keep me up at night, while DH snores peacefully beside me. STRESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
3 replies [ Reply | Watch | Options ]My mom is hopefully going to be here, but she'd be coming to the hospital to help me there (DH is totally sqeamish and can't handle it). I am trying to work out a plan for every different scenario (i.e. DS at camp, middle of night, weekend, me at work, etc etc) but it's so stressful. I'm freaking myself out!
[ Reply | Options ]Okay. Well if dh can't handle it then he can be with ds. Don't try to plan for every scenario, it will most likely be one you can't think of. For example, df went into labor because she decided to wear heels to work one day and rolled her ankle. She ended up driving herself to the hospital from work (she lives in VA) because the people in her office (mostly men) were too frantic to help. Her husband (who is also squeemish) fainted in the delivery room and her older daughter ended up holding her hand as the baby was delivered. Now there is no way to plan for that. But it makes a great story!
