37 Week Appointment (Long)

Had my 37 week appointment. No cervical change since last week. Only a fingertip dilated and only 30% effaced. Unfortunately, my GBS came back +. My OB was thinking about stripping my membranes next Tuesday if I was dilated-but she can't even do that now that I am GBS +. Also, she can induce on the 24th or 25th. She is on vacation the rest of that week. The hospital is dropping my insurance (UHC) as of January 1 too, so Caitlin HAS to be here by then.
Good thing I was "cautiously optimistic" about the whole DH thing. Jim has reverted back to being a jack a** again. I knew it was too good to be true. People w/ mental health issues don't get better over night. He started sulking about the whole GBS, no stripping membranes , etc...I was bummed too of course, but can't control the situation, right? He started yelling at me and calling names, and mocking me when I burst into tears. He was mad because I was "bummed." He kept saying, "see nothing is ever good enough for you!" "Another 10 pounds of sh*t on our backs!" WTH? Am I supposed to be jumping for joy about + GBS? He then tried to run three cars off the road that weren't driving to his liking. I was freaking out that he was endangering our lives and the lives of others. Took Madeline and left him at home to cool off once we got back to our house.
I may not be on the board the next 2 weeks or so. I will either be staying in a hotel next to the hospital with my mom and Maddie. Or I will be getting clearance to go back to AZ and have the baby and take this whole thing from there. He doesn't help out when he's home. I just can't count on him to be there for me when I go into labor/induced. And he definitely isn't capable of taking care of Madeline on his own while I'm in the hospital recovering.
I'll keep you updated as I can....thanks for always being there for me!
Love you ladies!!!!! :)

Oh Megan I'm so sorry! What a terrible thing to be going through right before you deliver. Please take care of yoursef and your daughters. I'll be praying that things are better soon.
Huge hugs!!!
Meagan,
I'm so sorry for the emotional roller coaster DH is putting you through.
Hi Meagan,
I'm sorry to hear than your having a rough time at the moment. I'm pleased to hear that you have thought of good options like staying elsewhere though.
I hope that your husbands mental health improves, but like you say it does take time and you can't be staying with him it its going to make life harder for you and he can't be supportive at the moment. Take care of yourself and your daughters.
I'm thinking of you,
Sending you many ((((hugs)))) as you go through this - I'm so sorry to hear DH has 'reverted' already. I'm glad you have your mom for support, though. Take care of yourself and your girls and best wishes for an easy delivery!
Take care,
Kitty
