Omg I’m getting the same! FTM and my partner said I should be grateful people care but omg it’s so annoying 😂
@Rachel I wouldn’t mind if it was a “Just letting you know I’m thinking of you” and that’s it, but when it’s the same people asking me day after day “how you feeling” I’m getting frustrated! I feel exactly the same as the day before and that is like a beached whale🙃
@Meg haha yeah really grateful don’t get me wrong but my patience is wearing thin. They’re excited which is cute but we’re the ones who have to suffer here!
@Chloe maybe just a "I'll let you know when baby is here" then ignore anything after that 😀
@Chloe me too. I’m being induced tomorrow and I know it’s going to be worse over the next couple of days. In hindsight I wish I hadn’t told people the date I was being induced. My phone is going on do not disturb for the foreseeable 😂
My only constant check in is my mum but she’s also only once a day maybe if that. No one else actually cares 😅 (partner doesn’t count as he gets all updates no matter what) hence why keeping everything quiet because no one’s asking anything 🤷🏼♀️ or even talking to me for that matter 🤔
I’m 4 days overdue and this was stressing me out. I’ve now told people that if I have any update I’ll let them know but if not presume I’m still pregnant 😂
Haha snap, it’s all very well intentioned but has definitely been adding to my end of pregnancy irks - I’m not even ‘late’ yet 😅
Same. Wish I told people we are due 2 weeks after our due date rather than give the actual due date. It’s all well meaning which makes it harder to just tell them to piss off 😅
I was exactly the same first time, this time I'm having a planned section so people know better than to contact me to ask my date. I was pretty clear from the beginning only people who required to know the date would be told (my mum & stepdad to allow for childcare arrangements). It is so annoying, some folk are too nosey for their own good x
These messages really wound me up! Why can't people just leave you to it
Lol maybe you should update WhatsApp status with 'Baby🟢🔴'
Same, I ignore them. Even if they’re from parents 😂 if there was any news, why do you think you’d not know?
My dad even sent a text saying someone who works in next called ‘z’ was asking after you…. I mean, I don’t know who this person is. Just go away 😂

@Clare oh Jeff off!! 😂😂
@Chloe honestly, couldn’t believe it!! Ignored that too 😂
@Clare with my first, I posted on my facebook ‘Keep calm, it’s due date but I’m still pregnant’ my mum’s friend read it completely wrong and took it that I was in labour (why on earth would I publish that to my news feed) she messaged my mum and said “omg Chloe’s in labour” - if I was, my mum would be the first to know before anyone on Facebook!!
If you’ve got an iPhone you can swipe left on the message from the message list and a purple bell icon will appear. You can click it to mute. If they’re not getting your sarcastic replies just ignore them.
So ignore them. Then when they don't show any interest once baby is here you'll understand why
