2 more weeks...
I have about 2 weeks left. Thought I'd share a belly shot with you guys. I am (I think) at my max. I cannot, and let's emphasize on the word CANNOT, imagine getting any bigger. There are no face shots sorry. My face is puffed. Actually, my toes, fingers and face has swollen like a puff fish:
Here is a picture of my belly at 37 weeks and 4 days: Its huge. And I have yet to drop (otherwise known as lightening). The baby has shown NO SIGNS whatsoever of wanting to come out. I am in a state of misery and these past few weeks have NOT BEEN EASY. I cannot imagine having a baby right now and being pregnant in my 9th month at the same time. Every mom needs to get something... maybe a bonus tax break for carrying a baby. The government should actually pay people who get pregnant. This is NOT EASY!!! I think I might start a petition...
Why is it so hard lately? Do you reallllyyyy wanna know? Let's start with the fact that you fart, get heartburn, pee and waddle like a mofo. Everything is done to the extreme. You'll have this intense back pain that can sometimes shoot down the back of your thighs. You can't find a comfortable position because if you sit, your belly hits your legs and isn't comfortable. You lay down, and you can't breathe because your belly is squished up against your lungs. You stand and your back hurts and feel swell. I wish there was a way I could float. No wonder i spend so much time in the bath. Oh, and the hot flashes suck. like today, i went and had coffee with my friend A-dawg and it was freaking blazing saddles outside. I have my AC at a constant 68 degrees in my house so that's nice. I hope the weather gets cooler tonight. I'm going on a special date night with my boo. For someone that hasn't been out of the house all week, I am super stoked and cannot wait to be out n' about. Hopefully the body hangs with me.
I also have this wierd state of insomnia and fatigue. Some evenings, I can't sleep until 3 am. Then there are some nights, when I fall asleep super early and have a hard time waking up. I'm all farked up.
