omg you ladies are sooo funny-- i'm in the totally opposite boat-- my babe's not allowed to come out yet!! I have waay too much to do!!! My hubby (who's been gone working for 3 months) is coming back in a couple of days, YAY!!! and as soon as he gets back we are moving. We live a good distance from town, in a rural community, and part of me nesting has been realizing i am super isolated and i hate it... That combined with the gas costs-- you folks in the states have no idea, with your $4.50 gallons-- we here pay upwards of $6.00 per gallon. So we have decided to live without a car. ANYways... so much happening, i don't want my baby to come until its due date-- aug.3rd. Meanwhile though, in a lot of ways i am SO done being pregnant-- the heartburn is BRUTAL omg i wake up in the middle of the night feeling like my throat is on fire, i've found drinking a gla__s of milk and sleeping with two pillows (to be propped up a bit) helps tons. Now instead of bony body parts pokin me there's a chubby bum sticking outta my belly :) i am super stoked to have made it this far, congratulations all you mamas too!! We've been hanging in there with all these brutal symptoms and we're about to meet these little chubby cherubs we've so lovingly grown! I'm super excited :) :) :)

We must of all been up together last night! I was up every hour from the time I went to bed at 10:15 (cause I was soooo tired) and then was up at 3 something for over an hour sitting on the couch... so tired, but not able to go back to sleep! I have not taken a nap today so i can see if I can sleep better tonight. I didn't take a nap yesterday either, but I have no idea why I wasn't crashing... I spent all day in the sun at the beach... swimming in the ocean and playing with my friends kids! Anyways hears to a better nights sleep tonight for all of us! my husband feels sooo bad about my sleeping bc it makes me miserable! He says drink a beer before bed... maybe that will help! my midwife suggested that too!

Well, at least I know I'm not alone in this non sleeping thing. I read somewhere awhile back that we don't sleep as well during the last few weeks of pregnancy because your body is preparing itself for the long night with the new baby. Whether or not thats true...I have no clue. Makes sense though I guess. Well, it updated pregnancy news, I think I've lost a lot of my mucous plug (sorry if tmi). Pretty gross stuff if you ask me, but it does mean I'm getting closer! So, thats great!! My mom and sister get in the end of this week, so they are hoping I hold this baby girl in until then...we'll see I guess!

Ok, back from my doc appt. She did the strep B test, so we should get that back in a few days and she did the first internal because of the pains I have been having and she was quite suprised! She said baby is fully engaged and my cervix is almost completely thinned out and I am about 2cm now. She said this baby is on it's way out, so start walking!! lol!! She said all is good if she wants to make her appearance anytime now,so she gave me all the paperwork for the hospital and told me to try to go for a walk everyight if possible and make sure we have everything ready to go. So maybe she might be a july baby after all. She said the reason I am so uncomfortable and have such eriod like pains is because of her being so engaged. So that was good news!! kitkat - now you have me wanting cake again - for the second time today!! LOL!! Amazingly enough I didn't gain any weight in the last two and a half weeks, so I must not be eating enough chocolate!! Better double up!! he hee!! :)

Erin! I am sure Cree will wait for daddy to get home before she makes her grand arrival!! I too have been getting the feet in the ribs lately, not just the b___t!! I love when I can feel that tiny little foot sticking out no matter how much it hurts at the time! I am with ya on knowing that I am really going to miss being pregnant once she is born and I too am really wanting to enjoy this last little bit. I would love it if she came early becasue that would give us some extra time with her before Wyatt had to go back to work, but at the same time,I am ok with her waiting till her due date too. As long as she is happy... :) Sea world sounds fun!! I would come with ya and the kiddos if I were close!

Patti I am so jealous of you... I hope I have good news tomorrow... So not fair... I want Mason to be engaged too....lol I would be walking my b___t off too... But by the time I get off of work I can barely walk. I tried to walk around the house last night and I was just so sore and tired I made it from the garage to the pool...lol. I did get some extra sleep last night. I laid down at 8 and was out by 9. I slept pretty good. Just got up a few times. I can't wait for my apt tomorrow. I just hope she has good news for me....lol

hey guys!! I'm back. a little sunburn on my chest, but I got a tan everywhere else so at least I look a little better!! it was fun and relaxing, but yesterday we walked around too much and I had contractions all day and was dead. but I'm home relaxing now, me and ruby are about to go for our morning walk to sniff the neighborhood :) so I just got back from the doc - no good news at all. first of all, I tested post_tive for the strep B thingy - I know it's not a big deal, but just something I can worry about now. the worst part is, as soon as I start to go into labor I have to run to the hospital to start the antibiotic, so that means I can't labor at home at all. oh well :( also, not dilated at all!!!!!! lost a pound since last week, that was the only good news. so patti, you lucky duck!! if you want to keep her in longer you better sit your a__s down and relax!! I'm about to do the opposite. I have so much running around and things to do around the house before she gets here!! oh, and lets set up that photobucket account for us, does anyone know how?? ok, I'll be back in a bit, I'm gonna go for a walk!!

oh patti!! I'm so glad you came up with a name finally! looks like our little girls are going to ryme!!! oh and I got to see casey this morning, she's too big now to see a good pic at the doc, I just saw body parts. but at least we took a look and now I know she's good in there.

Gabbi that sucks but atleast that is not a big deal. But congrats on losing a pound. I know it makes me feel great when I hear that... I so wish I could go to the beach. I may try the pool this weekend. My mom is going out of town friday and I am kinda nervous... I am def a mommas girl and I would freak if I happened to go into labor and she not be there.... I will try to set up the account in just a few. Have fun on your walk.

morning mommas!!ALicia - good luck at your apt today!! I am keeping my fingers crossed that lil mason is in there prying that cervix apart!! Report as soon as you can!! Thanks for setting up the photobucket account!! It will be great for all of us to share our pics - I just need to figure out how to use it!! Erin - you have one heck of a list girl!! Wow! Made me think I should sit down and write one too and see what all I need to finish as well. Kinda scares me though to see how much would be on it. Gabbi - LOL! I didin't even make the connection between the girls ryhming!! Too cute. If we do call her Jasey then I can tell her all about her baby friend Casey that lives in the Big Apple!! :) Are you still pretty swollen?? Mine seems to come an go with good and bad days. Yesterday it got pretty bad again and boy does it hurt the morning after when some of the sweling goes down. But the doc said she was much happier with the condition of my feet, so I asked her why she didin't take me of work on medical leave about 6 months ago!! She just laughed!! :) Worth a try right! HAve to go give hubby a hand in the backyard for a bit - check in after!!

morning girls! my feet don't even go down after i lay down, and when u push on them, they stick like that and they feel bruised! i hate it. i told my husband i would lose like 10 lbs of water as soon as i had her! i didn't sleep good, last night i had contractions every 3 min while laying on my left side for over an hour and then they went away dang it! but lots and lots of hip and pelvic pain too. i packed my kids bag last night cuz i thought it might be the night but NOTHING. i didn't sleep good either cuz of my sinuses. i don't go to the doc this week cuz she out at conferences i don't go back til monday! sucks, i want to know how dialated i am! patti im jealous! so sleepy tho. can't wait til naptime! lol. my husbands been home so far this week, been weird, not used to him being home through the days like this. but my mom got life insurance money on my brother and gave me and my oldest brother some so i could get my air conditioner fixed in my car and the seat fixed cuz it broke last year and it lays straight back and i have a portable playpen holding it up and i need my whole backseat for 3 carseats. so i can fix that now. i would much rather my brother be here tho. it makes me miss him more knowing thats where that money came from. gabbi, i've been going to the beach lately and little redheaded me has a decent tan now! got a little burnt the other day but thats it, mostly tanning, woohoo, but my belly is white white white, cuz i don't want everyone to see it! lol.
