I think everyone knows that I am not exactly the happiest pregnant person in the world. At this point I don't really care if the little guy wants to put on more weight, it would be perfectly wonderful if he would make his appearance now. And I am pretty sure he is packing on the pounds because at my appointment on Thursday I had gained 5 POUNDS in one week. In all fairness, I left my shoes on which I never do, but still!! I think that he is probably plump enough to make his appearance.
As my due date gets closer and I get more annoyed with being pregnant and uncomfortable I am getting much more irritable. I think the most awful thing about the irritability is that I know I am being irrational but I just can't stop. Tell me, how would you feel if you couldn't move, sleep, enjoy food or breathe? I am pretty sure the baby dropped a couple of weeks ago because I could breathe again which I was so excited about, until he decided to put on 5 pounds and now I can't breathe again! I have also found that nothing really tastes good to me, which is strange because I am hungry a lot but when I go to eat something I would have loved before it just tastes bland and disgusting or gives me acid reflux. I am actually looking forward to having to get up in the night with the baby because at least I will be able to fall asleep in between feedings instead of being awake most of the night because I can't get comfortable. I can't even really toss and turn because it makes me feel like my pelvis is going to split apart!
Everyone who sees me says I look way to small to be this close to having a baby but they aren't carrying around 35 pounds of extra weight are they?!
But until this little guy decides to appear I will continue waddling around, try not to snap at Nic too much and TRY to be thankful for what little time I have for myself now.

Oh Rachel, I hope he comes soon too. I know how you feel, and yes, once the baby comes you will want to sleep all of the time and it is easier to fall asleep. You probably don't want to hear this but Garret and Amber's baby was born Thursday, she was due the 19th. Maybe you will be early too?
Aww, hang in there!
Love you!!!
