Priorities

[beckyr11]

So i am 9 mths preggo and due ANY day now. Actually been having contractions consistently 10 minutes apart since this past Friday when i went to L&D with false labor. They are becoming more and more uncomfortable but no closer together so the doctors said it could happen today or in a week. I am scheduled to be induced next Friday if not.
Now here is where i need to set my priorities. I have the NEED to go to Harris Teeter for triples this weekend LOL. The closest store is 30-45 minutes each way in the complete opposite direction of my hospital. I already passed on the Kmart super doubles at the same location last week thinking I wouldn't make it through the checkout.
I need to know am I the only one so obsessed with a good triples deal that I am willing to deliver my baby on the road to the store LOL. I would be going with a friend and am passing on going today but would get a chance to go again on Saturday so I'm gonna give it till Friday night and see how things go. I just picture myself trying to finish shopping with contractions 3 minutes apart and me insisting that I need to use all 20 coupons I intended or I was not leaving LOL.
Obviously I will use good judgemnt on this but I just wanted to make sure that i'm not the only one with such coupon addictiveness.
Thanks for listening

I can understand you wanting to get the deals and not missing out on anything. lol but if you are that close to delivering you should pass on the deals. I know it is hard but you don't want to be rushed to the hospital or worse yet, deliver on the side of the road with no medication.

I would skip out on this. There are too many things that could happen. Maybe your friend would be willing to get what you wanted.

There will always be triples again. I'd be kicked back in the recliner relaxing, because I know once baby gets here, that's not going to happen for a looooooong time.

Well, it's a good way to get the cashier to not give you a hard time: Either you take the coupons which I'm rightfully entitled to use or I am having this baby right here, right now, on your counter and you will get to clean up the mess!

LOl!

LOL!! I would probably do the same thing. luckily I did not know a thing about coupons while I was pregnant ....

but if I was your buddy I would definitely take your coupons and list and get your stuff for you so you didnt have to take the risk of going out and doing yourself.

good luck on whatever you decide and have a happy delivery :)

I would see if your friend could go for you...but then again I'm preggo too and would probably do the same thing as you LOL.

You are a much stronger person than I... once I was 8 mos, all I wanted to do was lay down. I'm pretty sure that we would have starved if it wasn't for my stockpile, cause I wouldn't even have gone across the street to get groceries!

Of course, once the baby was born, I was out shopping with him at 2 weeks old. I was much lighter then, LOL.

I guess it all depends on whether or not your friend has experience in delivering a baby.
