36 weeks and cant find the excitement! What isnt going wrong?

edited June 2011 in Pregnant
I am 36 weeks and away from home. I live in va and had to come to ny for a family emergency. My mother in law is passing away due to a disease she has been battling for years... But this was sudden. My fiance is having a really hard time, he is the oldest in the fam. I called my insurance to find out what hospital I should check in if I go into labor..it happens to be her hospital. :( we don't have a date to go back to va. Iam so scared that I would be giving birth while my hubby is making funeral arrangements. I wish I can go back to va and wait for the baby but that is not a good option.. We have no family there. I'm torn. I hate when doctors wants to congratulate me during a meeting about his mother conditions. I hope this baby stays in as long as possible. And to top everything off .. his mother gave us custody of his little sis. So I am going from having two kids in the next few weeks (i have a five yr old girl) to having three. Bitter sweet! I need some serious prayers. I also don't want to go a month without the baby being checked. Everyone says no one will see me this late..unless I'm complaining about something. What to do? Is it safe to go a month..the last month without a check up?

  • Have u already been checked for group b strep?
  • This really is a horrible situation for you. I'm very sorry u are having to deal with this. Is this your first child?
  • Roomfor1more ... I have not! That is supposed to be on july 8th. I completely forgot about that. I'm seriously lost.

    Wallieheadbaby3... this is my second. We have a 5yr old girl. We are expecting our boy. I never imagined this ... its so hard to be excited when we jump everytime the phone rings.

    My husband just signed papers to take her off life support... now is just a matter of waiting.
  • Maybe preregister at that hospital n tell them your situation n see if they can test u for it... also get a blood pressure kit and at any sign of alarm call l&d to get checked
  • the hospitals have ob offices that will usually take you for appointments and stuff. Any ob should take you fine, call around. How old is his sister?
