5 Weeks To Go

I have been patient, I think. lol. But I am growing more and more impatient every day. I can't wait to have this baby.

I can't sleep anymore at night. My joints hurt so bad to get up and down and sometimes walk. My back hurts all the time now too. And now I have to wake up to go the bathroom in the middle of the night. lol. I get the weirdest pain but only at night. The very top of my stomach will start to ache, a deep sore ache. I think it's from sleeping on my side and it's just getting stretched from the baby. I don't know. But it goes away during the day when I'm up moving around and sitting.

So many of my friends have just recently had their babies too, and seeing them makes me even more anxious...

My cousin had her twins last month, then another friend had her baby girl a couple weeks ago, and then another friend just had her baby girl last week, and even another friend of mine is having her baby in a couple more days. Oh yeah, I'm waiting for my turn.

I am trying to stay busy though and haven't really started the countdown only because I get one more ultrasound in a couple days (Wednesday) to find out if I get to have her vaginally or have to get a scheduled c-section. So far, everyone I know have had to get c-sections. I'm getting pretty nervous and can't wait to find out the news. Either way, until I can get a induce date set or a c-section date, I'm not counting down.

While my mom was over today I did ask her to take another pregnancy picture of me. I don't think I look huge even though I have gained way to much weight, maybe because I can hide the weight well?

In other news... the kids are being kids. And I have to admit, not only am I anxious for the baby, but I can't wait until the older 2 are back in school.

With the hot days we've been having the kids have been spending more time inside than out, unless we are swimming. And more time indoors means more fighting. But I did manage to get a cute picture of them today outside. That doesn't happen very often.
