Contractions



This cartoon could not explain any better how I feel right now. I am soooooo ready to have this baby. I am very uncomfortable, and my nights have already started to become long...

Last night I had contractions for about 3 hours... I knew it was not serious and I did not need to call me doctor, because they where NOT consistent and they where not getting stronger. However, they where painfull enough to keep me awake half the night. They where also enough to just tease me to think MAYBE I was beginning labor... NOT.

I am two days shy of being 37 weeks, but I feel like I am 50 weeks. Tired, fat, swollen, achey, cant tie my shoes, cant pick up anything from the floor and I feel unmanageable. Some people handle the last month of pregnancy well, however I am not one of them.

Pray for me to have patients and wisdom on how to handle being so uncomfortable- because I feel exactly like the lady in the cartoon.

I just have to keep reminding myself of the prize at the end!!!!!
