In the teens! Delivery room....impatient husband, slight vent

19 days to go! As time gets closer I'm beginning to not want anyone in the room with me. My husband is getting to be more and more of a jerk as I get closer & he has NO patience with me. Of he's a jerk in there, with me being in pain, I'm afraid I'll seriously lose it on him.
My mom wants me to call once I'm in labor but she lives 3 hours away. My grandma lives with her and my dad & she's got bad dimentia. My mom is afraid to leave her even though my dad is there. I'm trying not to be selfish but I want my mom around & want her to be there to help me after. Feels like she's choosing her mom over me in a way. If my grandma were in any danger I  wouldn't want my mom to leave, but she's not. This is my 1st and last pregnancy. We have 4 kids we adopted  so this is definitely it.
I want my husband to stop being a jackass and my mom to be there for me....grrr....had to vent.

Ladies, thank you for the encouragement. Maybe I can convince my mom to bring my grandma with her for a few days. She has weird hallucinations but she's harmless, plus she's excited about the baby....
I have tried to talk to the husband about my feelings but it seems to make it worse so....easier to leave that one alone.
My other kids are 10 (girl), 7 (boy) & a boy & a girl both age 4. I know my oldest daughter is going to be a huge help. She's an amazing kid. I've had her since she was 5 & I'm soooo blessed with her ♡

I hate when people say pregnancy hormones... how do they explain husband's getting so bitchy!? Please don't tell me they get worse closer to birth. Just phrase it to your mom the way you did here, say your dh is making you feel alone and you feel like you and the baby really need her. BTW I think that's really awesome you have 4 adopted children : ) 1st labors are usually really long, I was told they are 2x as long so 3 hours away should give her time to get there. Good luck!

You should talk to your husband & tell him how you feel and and talk to your mom as well maybe ask her to be a few days with you but also is her mom and she's worried about her safety as well and try to talk to your kids help you out too don't know how old they are but explain mommy needs help when babys there.  Be patient and ask God to give you strength and more patients everything just getting to you since it could be any day trust me I understand you I have 13 days left as well and tying to be calm and hoping is soon
