Can totally picture my mom doing that too... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396330 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 06:13:42 +0000 BelugaBean 396330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd get tons of emails and some calls asking how I was. Also, every time I called (because I was bored and super pregnant), she would ask if it was time when she answered the phone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396329 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 06:06:22 +0000 lomom 396329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mines been crazy since she found out about her grandbaby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396320 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 05:48:57 +0000 mrsjyw 396320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thankfully neither my mom nor mil are being crazy. I've been pretty lucky w both of them throughout pregnancy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396318 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 05:46:05 +0000 sorrycharlie 396318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup ..she was excited but not annoyingly so. She did text me to ask if I was in labor yet and when I was annoyed (bc I would've called her!) she declared that she didn't think I'd tell her.</p> <p>Funny enough, my dad called often the last couple weeks to just 'see how I was'..he was in the middle of one of those calls when my water broke! Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396187 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 22:59:01 +0000 lemondrop 396187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, both moms were pretty relaxed about the whole thing. They knew they would be the first to hear when things started. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396184 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 22:55:44 +0000 JessiBee 396184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: Yes. This. Already crazy.

I'd get calls from her at like 7am just "asking how I was feeling." She'd call at least 3 times a day with the most obvious excuses lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396146 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 22:17:29 +0000 autumnlove 396146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, she was way too nervous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396118 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 21:57:52 +0000 heffalump 396118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Honeybee: @sweetchic: yes, I think I win for craziest mom. Not sure that makes me a winner though. It was her first grandchild, she was excited :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396067 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 21:26:46 +0000 Springtime 396067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes! every time I called her for anything, she picked up the phone and her greeting was "omg are you in labor" it was annoying and she definitely got crazier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396047 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 21:11:08 +0000 Meridian 396047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Omg, that is TOOOO funny that she slept in her clothes!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396041 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 21:09:29 +0000 Honeybee 396041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: Bwahahaha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396031 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 20:56:39 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 396031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG !!!! I AVOIDED HER LIKE THE PLAGUE!<br /> She called like 4 times a day from the *day* I became full term at 37w. And every time I didn't answer: she'd call my husband. It killed me...<br /> She was a little excited =)<br /> Let's just say the excitement has yet to die down. Love my mama, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396006 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 20:44:08 +0000 DillonLion 396006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not yet.. but she knows I'd bite her head off if she did that </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-396005 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 20:43:16 +0000 lovehoneybee 396005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She texted constantly, but with good reason. I was due on a Friday, she lives across the country and had a flight for the Sunday before my due date. She wanted to have enough time to hop a flight if I went into labor early. As it was she ended up flying in the Friday before her original flight once I told her they stripped my membranes. </p> <p>My BIL, on the other hand, called like twice a day. And my MIL about once a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395998 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 20:38:18 +0000 mrsjazz 395998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom got crazier once I was pregnant...and is pretty much deranged now that LO is here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395995 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 20:35:09 +0000 cyndistar3 395995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom was constantly calling and texting me to ask if lo had flipped yet... Like I wouldn't be screaming it from the rooftops if she had flipped! That was the only time my mom has ever called me on any regular basis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395994 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 20:34:13 +0000 heffalump 395994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom slept in her clothes so she'd be ready in case I called in the middle of the night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395985 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 20:29:52 +0000 MamaMoose 395985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Glad I'm not the only one with a crazy mama! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395937 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 20:03:19 +0000 blackbird 395937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Shit, my mom is crazy NOW. She wants to know every single little thing and I talk to her every day. She's going to be just as bad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395916 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 19:55:19 +0000 Bao 395916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>lol no not at all!

I can't imagine what she's going to be like when we have a second one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395891 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 19:38:52 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 395891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had pre labor for 3+ weeks, so my mom was going crazy by the end. I started screening her calls &amp; eventually called her (and the dozens of other people who were asking) out about leaving me alone. Then I didn't hear from her for a full week, until she asked my dad to call me :)<br /> Yes, people are just excited, but it's soooo annoying! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395888 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 19:35:43 +0000 fairefaire 395888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My crazy mother calls me every day (sometimes more than once) and I'm not even pregnant :) </p> <p>She gets it from my crazy grandmother who also calls me daily.... </p> <p>My poor children will no doubt one day think *I'm* crazy for calling them every day. I'll blame genetics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395880 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 19:28:45 +0000 Andrea 395880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom is crazy every day no matter what! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-mom-get-crazy-as-you-got-close-to-your-due-date#post-395877 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 19:27:10 +0000 MamaMoose 395877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm due next Sunday and my mom has now decided that she needs daily phone calls from me confirming that I'm NOT in labor yet. Woman, how about I just call you when I AM in labor?!? I know it's because she's just soooo excited but man she's crazy! </p>
