Still waiting

Nothing happening yet. I had some pretty strong contractions in the middle of the night Saturday night, but as always, they went away and we're still hanging around wondering if every little set of ontractions is "it". And it never is. At this point, I can't wear any of my shoes, even first thing in the morning. So I have been going to work in my house slippers. Blue, fuzzy slippers. They match my work attire so well! HA! But I still like coming to work though because it gives me something to do other than sit around waiting for something that seems like it's never going to come. I think this pregnancy is permanent and he's never never coming out. Matt is beside himself wanting to see the little guy and play with him. I just want it to be over, BUT I don't want to actually do the labor part. Can't I just fast forward a couple of weeks to where the baby is here and I have missed all the yucky painful parts? Apparently not.

Not feeling so great today. And the baby is very very low and putting pressure down there. It's hard to walk, it's hard to sleep. It's definitely painful to move AT ALL while sleeping. And yet you have to move because the side you're sleeping on goes numb and starts aching anyway. But the pain I feel to move over makes me want to jump out of my skin and leave my body behind. Just a few more days...that's what I keep telling myself. But of course, I'll just be replacing that pain with another kind. But at least I'll be able to sleep in more positions than just 2.
