Anyone else getting fed up with the "Is baby here yet?" question?

I feel like I can't go a single day without somebody asking me if my baby has arrived yet. It's super frustrating because I am fed up, exhausted and just want to have her here already. Why is it not normal to just let people tell you when their baby arrives? Why is it now acceptable to ask every single day if there is any sign or if they have arrived yet? People act so entitled to know about your private life when they really haven't cared much about you during most of your pregnancy. I've shared on social media that I do not want any of these messages but people still feel the need to message me to ask. It's almost as if they think I'm gonna keep my baby a secret. Sorry ladies, I just needed a whinge. Just kills all my oxytocin. 😡

I feel exactly the same!

@Amy It's so frustrating, hopefully you can try to block it out like I'm going to. I'm officially gonna start ignoring those messages. Hang in there!

Hard relate 😭

100% agree. I don't know why people think we won't tell them. And it is especially frustrating when I am trying to distract myself from the fact I am indeed still pregnant. So glad I'm not the only one. If I have another baby, I'm tempted to lie about my due date xx

@Laura I feel you on this lovely, honestly. I didn't even put a date on my socials, I just put September. I'm just trying to stay calm, relax and not remind myself that I am in fact still a heffalump 😭 It's this part of pregnancy that I really don't enjoy and it's meant to be enjoyable xx

@Nikhita Chopra Shall we just ignore them 😂

I almost lost it on my male coworker right before I had my baby. He literally said " when are you going to pop that damn baby out?" Like what the fuck?

I feel bad when I see these posts because I did this to my sister out of excitement. Sorry! I guess if it helps maybe just turn your phone to mute for certain people?

I just told people to leave me alone, I won’t gatekeep any signs and they’ll know as soon as I know. More because I was fed up of the same question and giving the same answer. Getting to the point where I was like “see previous reply” 😂

Yup

Everyday by everyone!! Yes it’s frustrating
