Man I feel so grouchy and down in the dumps. I've been in "labor" for a month and the contractions and everything keep getting stronger but are nowhere near where they need to be. No one, including the Doctor, thought I'd make it this far to my due date. Now it's here and the day is almost over and I feel bitter.

I joked with a friend that this was my first taste of parental disappointment in my kid but in some way I feel really let down and like a bad mom for even thinking poorly about his late arrival. Has anyone else felt despondent, depressed, upset at going over term? I know it sounds stupid but I kinda feel like I might be angry with the poor baby and he isn't here yet.

I'm a monster.
