As I walked into work today I realized and accepted that I am officially miserable. It doesn't matter how I sit, lay, or stand I am still uncomfortable. I got my tennis shoes on and tied this morning, but this will be the LAST time I attempt that. From now on it is slip-ons and flip flops. The good news is that I don't have to worry about my feet getting cold, cause I am so warm all the time and my feet are so swollen, I can't imagine being cold. In addition, my back hurts all the time, my hips hurt, I have heartburn, and I still can't eat much. Throughout the whole pregnancy I have been asked a million times how I am feeling. Almost every time the answer is "good" or "fine".Well, I am officially no longer "good" I am "done".
Now that I have got that bitching out of the way, the good news is that I went to the doctor last week and she said that I am already 50% effaced and 1/2 cm dilated. I know that doesn't mean a whole lot as I can be dilated for a while, but my doctor was very surprised (as I was only 36 weeks) and told me that she doesn't think I will be making it to my due date. I go in again on Thursday and I will get checked again!
We are all moved into our new place in Sandy. Well, I still haven't unpacked the office, but other than that the house is looking pretty good. Corbin's room is unpacked and setup, which was a huge relief!
So over the next week I have a lot of last minute things to get done. The entire pregnancy I have convinced myself that Corbin was going to be late, so I planned to start maternity leave a few days before his due date, so that I would have plenty of time to get things done. I suppose he is welcoming me to parenthood, cause I now have to get all those things done NOW, which is a little difficult when I am working full time and going to school full time!!! Thank goodness for my amazing husband!!!!
