New addition

[KISH7374]

My daughter is getting married this Saturday so things are kind of hectic right now with last minute things and my son'e wife decides that she needs to be induced to have their baby. She is not due until next week but wants to go in because she is tired of being pregnant. She talked her doctor into inducing so she went in last night and they are helping things along and is expected to deliver this afternoon. We are thrilled for our son but his wife is being selfish and trying to steal the show from our daughter. But all of that aside, we will be welcoming Kamryn Marie this afternoon into the world. We are waiting on our son to call and tell us it is OK to come to the hospital.

I'd love to hear a doctor comment on the "inducing before her due date because she's tired of being pregnant". I can understand inducing if you are way past your due date, but don't you have health & liability concerns when you mess w/ mother nature and deliver before the oven timer goes off?

P.S. First thing I thought was that she wanted to steal the spotlight too. :roll:

She is very high maintainence, and I never could figure out the attraction. She is the complete opposite of my son. We are thrilled with the new addition but dread the way we will be expected to act around the new baby.

Things are progressing faster then anticipated. We just got the call that it is OK to come to the hospital so we are on our way. I will update later.

Wow congratulations on the new grandchild. It's a shame about the "drama mama" needing to control the situation. She sounds difficult.

What an awkward place for your son and you all to be in. It's an unneccesary distraction during a week that should be about your daughter. It also makes it hard to really enjoy the new baby due to all the wedding plans and events. Will this mean your son will miss his sisters wedding?

Have a beautiful day on Saturday and posts pics when you can of the new baby.
I hope she's just like your son. Congratulations again!

...it's only "stealing the show" if there is an audience. Relax and find the joy in both occasions. Congrats.

Congratulation, KISH!! Isn't family a wonderful insitution! I have a feeling all will be fine and looks like you still have three days to finish wedding plans~~~~~~ wahoo!!

My first reaction is that I would be really if I were your daughter (for SIL stealing the show) and if I were you (for causing you to miss even a moment with your new grandbaby).

That being said, you might as well relax and enjoy it all. Stressing won't help, and so you might as well be understanding and diplomatic to avoid hard feelings or spoiling these two events.

Congratulations.

Congratulations Paw Paw!!!! I hope both occasions are very special for everyone involved. Maybe not the perfect timing for that little bundle of joy, but I am sure when you see that sweet face all feelings of resentment will fade away for all of you. Please take pictures of the baby and the wedding....I can't wait to see them!!!!!
