This isn't too overbearing/too much to post on Facebook, is it?? A bit of back story: I've had what feels like multiple people asking every day if my baby is here. I understand their curiosity, but it's overwhelming!!! That being said, realistically it's honestly only been a few people asking, it just feels like a lot; and in one case it's one particular girl who has been asking several times a week for the past several weeks, who I've started ignoring since we aren't really close and I really don't feel comfortable constantly keeping her updated like she seems to want.

The post:

An open letter to our Facebook friends regarding the impending arrival of our baby:

No, she is not here yet. I know how eager some of you are to meet her and to see our little dumpling, and to spread the news. Please understand that as eager as you are, we are tenfold. I'll be a week past my due date tomorrow, and being patient is not easy, especially with so many people asking questions. For this reason I would ask everyone to stop asking. Please understand that I am certainly not mad at those of you who have asked, but rather thqt it can definitely feel overwhelming to have so many people asking questions when right now it's a waiting game.

Furthermore, we will contact those close to us with information regarding her arrival both before and after the fact and we would like to ask those family members and friends who we choose to share the news with so soon after to hold off on making ANY posts or spreading the news outside of our family in ANY way until we have done so first, with the exception of our explicit permission to notify certain people who may not get the news as quickly through us, and to allow us to announce her arrival publicly on our own time so we can get some long-awaited quality time with our little princess. We WILL announce her arrival. It may take some time after the fact, but it WILL happen.

Thank you all very much for your understanding and patience and for respecting our wishes during this time. We hope to be able to share her arrival with you all soon.
