I know that technically there's still 9 days until your due date, but I just thought I'd let you know that it's okay if you want to come a little early. I know that it must be SUPER fun to be all squished up inside of my belly, but your mother is getting tired of you squishing her, kicking her ribs, pushing on her bladder, and all the other lovely things you do. As much as I love being huge, swollen and hot all day, I think it's time for you to come :) Here's the deal, I can handle being pregnant for 9 more days... maybe even 10 or 12, but if you decide to stay in my tummy until the doctor will induce me (16 days) I am gonna be pretty miserable. Please be a good little girl and GET OUT OF ME!
Love your Mommy
Sooo... incase you couldn't tell from the above letter written to my baby, I'm a little done with being pregnant :) I haven't really written much during the last 8 months about being pregnant. Let's just say that pregnancy isn't as fun as I always thought it would be. Don't get me wrong, there's been lots of great parts and its an amazing miracle... it's just a miracle that comes with lots of uncomfortable parts. I was pretty miserable from week 6 to 16 with being sick. But after that, it was great for a few months. I loved getting to see her in ultrasounds and feel her movements. It's much funner when the baby has room to move inside you :) Anyways, I simply wasn't prepared for the lovely last two months. I guess that I never knew that you get heartburn, can't breathe, can't go longer than an hour or two in the night without going to the bathroom, and you can't sleep because you're so uncomfortable! Oh and I've gained some LOVELY cankles and fat feet :) I was feeling really miserable for the last few weeks... but over the last few days I've been feeling a little better because I know that it can't last longer than 16 more days :) Plus, the baby has dropped some, so now I don't have as bad of heartburn, I can breathe easier, and amazingly I've been sleeping better! I've been going to the doctor weekly now, but unfortunately I haven't dilated or thinned yet. I'm thinking that means Camryn won't be coming until much closer to her due date, or after. I guess I should appreciate having a little time to rest before she comes. I finally think that I pretty much have everything ready at the house to bring the baby home.... I just have to do what I've been dreading doing since the day I found out I was pregnant.... I have to go through labor! Scary! Wish me luck everyone!
