I have 10 more days to go…the due date says. Can I just tell you how done I am with the pregnancy? I can’t bend and reach further than my mid-thigh, so imagine me trying to take a bath and washing my legs or feet(oh forget about shaving)or trying to put lotion on my legs or bending down to pick up anything on the floor. I wobble wobble more than a pregnant penguin, even until a month ago I would try to attempt to walk gracefully as I made sure I didn’t bounce from side to side or up and down and walk like a floating angel but forget that too. I just gave up and since my belly is so enormous and it’s out there for everybody to see, I wobble and bounce sideways and up and down ALL I want. I even put my one hand on my back like an old grandma for support so I can wobble some more.
I have literally 4 outfits I wear over and over again because that’s all that will fit me and I might find more outfits if I dig in my closet but I hate deciding and picking out what to wear since I know I won’t look cute anyway. Walking up from the basement to the main floor gets me out of breath and I have to sit down when I make it up to rest my legs and catch my breath. Doing little chores such as picking up Adalie’s toys gets me exhausted after 2 mins, and even folding laundry sitting down gets me out of breath too. When I try to sleep, I have to lie down on the bed at a certain exact angle(precisely 85 degrees), if my body is leaning too towards my back, the belly weighs heavily on me and if I lean too close to my belly, my baby gets squished. I am so tired the whole day and when I attempt to go to bed early like last night at 9 p.m, I woke up just before midnight and couldn’t fall asleep until 4 a.m. I have a little cold but nonetheless waking up at 3, 4, 5 a.m and not being able to fall back asleep because my belly is so huge and uncomfortable is unavoidable.
I wasn’t eager to have the baby out since I know it’ll be so much harder than it is now, but that’s it, I’m done! COME OUT ALREADY!!!
K, I feel a little better now. And I smell the yummy scent of my pumpkin bread baking in the oven so that helps too. š
