And every baby deserves his/her own special day :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/irrational-pregnancy-fears-or-why-i-want-this-coming-weekend-over-with-already#post-144884 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:27:01 +0000 winniebee 144884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@c.sassy: Wow, you too, huh? In a weird way, it would be kind of neat if that happened, but I just want to avoid any feelings of weirdness surrounding the baby's birth date! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/irrational-pregnancy-fears-or-why-i-want-this-coming-weekend-over-with-already#post-144882 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:25:40 +0000 Weagle 144882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: I had the same thoughts about April 28th or 29th. We found out we lost the baby on the 28th, D&amp;C on the 29th. DH and I were kind of hoping that it would happen on one of those days, actually. Partially to "cancel out" bad memories, and partially because we are so stinking ready to meet this little girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/irrational-pregnancy-fears-or-why-i-want-this-coming-weekend-over-with-already#post-144877 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:21:39 +0000 winniebee 144877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: Thanks! It's fine, it just would be too bizarre of a coincidence if it actually happens. But it might actually happen which is the crazy part. I'm not really religious, but I feel like it would be a sign from above or something (you know the old saying "when God takes, God gives?" I'm sure you will be fine this weekend, BTW! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/irrational-pregnancy-fears-or-why-i-want-this-coming-weekend-over-with-already#post-144875 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:19:50 +0000 mediagirl 144875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: @Goldilocks1107: Oh wow. To both of you, I'm sorry for your losses. I totally get it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/irrational-pregnancy-fears-or-why-i-want-this-coming-weekend-over-with-already#post-144871 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:18:22 +0000 winniebee 144871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's not really an irrational fear, but something that I hope to avoid....last year I had a miscarriage on May 10. I don't want baby boy to arrive on May 10 this year because of that! I haven't even told my husband because he wouldn't even make the connection between the dates. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/irrational-pregnancy-fears-or-why-i-want-this-coming-weekend-over-with-already#post-144865 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:13:17 +0000 Goldilocks1107 144865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know EXACTLY how you feel. Mine's a bit sadder, but 2 days after I got my BFP (and the day I told DH), my grandma passed away. Fast forward a few months . . . at 36.5 weeks pregnant, my grandpa passed away. I'm kind of on baby watch because it just seems like a strange coincidence. But I KNOW this baby has no intentions of coming anytime soon, so I'm just being silly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/irrational-pregnancy-fears-or-why-i-want-this-coming-weekend-over-with-already#post-144855 Wed, 02 May 2012 12:05:34 +0000 mediagirl 144855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>(longest thread title ever)</p> <p>A bit of a story on why I might be freaking out just a little bit...</p> <p>On October 29th, 2011, my cousin J got married. All of the family was supposed to be there for the wedding, including my brother and 34 week pregnant sister in law. At 3am that day, my SIL's water broke and she gave birth to my nephew 8 hours later. Their flight was supposed to leave at 8 that morning to go to the wedding! My nephew ended up spending 2 weeks in the NICU but was fine otherwise. Apparently her water broke early because of an infection (at least that's what I know).</p> <p>Fast forward to this weekend. I'll be 35 weeks on Saturday. Cousin J's brother A is getting married on Friday (both weddings are/were in Ohio). My husband and I made the very smart decision not to go to the wedding. Even though we're not going, I still feel like something might go wrong and I'll end up going into labor the day of A's wedding. </p> <p>I know I'm just being ridiculous about it all but really, all I can think is, as uncomfortable as I am, I don't want to have this baby this weekend! It's an irrational fear but I thought I'd share it with my Bee friends. </p> <p>Did you have any irrational fears during your pregnancy that you just couldn't get out of your head? </p>
