How do you deal?

Today is my due date, and I'm not even that upset that I haven't gone into labor yet. BUT what's really getting to me is all the phone calls I've gotten today. And in the last week, I've gotten anywhere from 5-10 calls or texts a day. It's literally making me go insane. I was sobbing this evening because it just won't stop. People don't understand that I need to be left alone.. I need these last few moments of silence before I become a mom. I want to just shut my phone off. To top it off, my mother in law keeps trying to just randomly show up at my house, while my husband is at work! THREE days in a row!!! I shouldn't be this stressed out. I can't stand it. I think I might have to just turn my phone off..

One of my aunts called asking if there's anything happening yet too.. and she's a nurse!!! You think of all people a nurse would understand a due date can be off by at least two weeks.. I'm praying to God, I just want my sanity back. I feel suffocated and smothered and I can't breathe.. it's unhealthy. Please lord let these people leave me alone. Like I've told them seven hundred times. I'll let you know when the baby arrives!!!
