Soon

I've got 26 more days to go!!!

I'm uncomfortable, but not as uncomfortable as I thought I would be. My belly button is herniated which is painful from time to time, I feel constant pressure on my pelvis, and don't even get me started on the trips to the bathroom. Other than that, the changes have been subtle enough where I don't notice them much... until I catch a glance of myself in the mirror. I won't even go there though because the "fat" comments I've been getting are incredibly hurtful, and for the record, no I don't want to go on your weight loss plan after the baby.

I see the doctor every Friday now, and this last appointment was a promising one. The doctor has been pleased with my pregnancy overall, but she says she doesn't want me going a day beyond my due date (April 27th) because of minor issues I've had with my blood pressure. I've even signed the consent form to get Pitocin. Crazy stuff!

I've been trying to keep myself busy during the day, but I'm noticeably more tired than usual. I sleep 8 - 9 hours every night, and I take 2 - 3 hour naps a day. I think my "nesting" habits have settled down, because I'm perfectly content just sitting in silence all day. However, I need to keep in mind that people are going to be in and out of the house quite a bit in the next few weeks, so I've been trying to keep the house clean which has been pretty easy to do since I don't work. But I'm just so tired....
