Well I'm 36 1/2 weeks now.. and I feel like I'm 42 weeks. HAHA! I'm sure every pregnant woman feels this way or maybe I'm just extremely impatient!
Went to my doctors appointment today, 50% effaced and dilated to a 1. Which after hearing many accounts from friends who just had babies means almost nothing! haha I have now learned that you can be a 1 at the beginning of the day and have the baby that night or be a 4 for weeks before the baby comes. Either way, it felt good to hear that progress is being made! haha!
I feel like a 90 year old woman. And not one of those super woman type 90 year olds (like my neighbor Jane.. seriously...) who can walk around normally but one of those 90 year old woman that has to hobble everywhere they go! By the end of the day, I can barely hobble around and I'm in serious pain because my ligaments are TOO LOOSE! I think the baby has dropped a little too because the pain has gotten worse in the last couple of days and Steve commented that my tummy looked a little lower. Some times it feels like my right leg is not attached to anything in there and I think I actually heard my pelvis bone scraping against itself last night.....shiver.
Last night was bad but thanks to my rice sock (Thanks BEEBS!) I was able to get a few hours of sleep after the 5 o clock hour. Sheesh.. Seriously, remember that post where I said you should be grateful for your body.. I mean it times 10 now!
Sorry for the complaining... just ready for this little girl to make her appearance is all! :)

Oh, Lar!! You're in my thoughts & prayers! Really! You are. I love you girl!! Almost there!! Keep hobblin'!
Hang in there! The end will come and you will have a baby in your arms before you know it!! My advice: Do stuff that you wont be able to do with a newborn (if your pregnant body can handle it;) It will be fun and help the time pass quickly.
I am so excited for you! You will be a great mommy!!
I really feel for you! I was in SO much pain when I was pregnant with Owen and got no sleep because of it. The last month and a half seemed to just drrrrrragggg. Don't worry though! It's soon a-coming! Can't wait to meet her!
I have no idea what you are feeling but boy am I glad its you and not me {can you imagine the rumor mill if I posted something like this! HA! Something to consider if I ever get bored ~ starting a good rumor that is, not getting pregnant on my own ... or with someone but that someone not being ... well, you get what I mean}!! But I sure do love your honesty! All my love and prayers!!
