I wasn't supposed to get pregnant in the first place, but I managed to make it this far relatively unscathed...
When I got the email on Sunday that I was officially 37 weeks (read, full term), my first thought was, "Oh thank God! Get this thing out of me now!" Not that I didnt enjoy the process... The first kicks, the hiccups, telling some of our family and friends...
However, the time has come to evacuate the baby!
The constant heart burn, the tiredness, the inability to sleep, the constant need to run for a bathroom. Dizzyness, hunger, nausea, diarhea, back pain, leg pain, PAIN EVERYWHERE....
I love my baby, but Im sure he will look far cuter when he waves his feet in the air outside of my stomach.... I'm sure his hiccups will be just as sensational when they dont cause me to suddenly have to pee.
Anyone with me?
Re: Get it Out!!!!
LOL, you have no idea how bad I want it out too.
By the time I got to the Doc he said I was beginning to dilate and my cervix was 80 "thinned out." My son was/is in the readytolaunch position with his head crammed right into my cervix. He briefly explained what all this meant and advised me make an appt for one week later and keep an eye out for contractions or fluid spewage in the meantime. Short sweet and to the point.
Sounds and feels oh gawd does it feel to me like my baby wants out asap. Hes been a real kicker right from the start. He began beating me up about a week after I first even found out he was there about 1314 weeks and hasnt quit since. It feels like he might rip right through certain areas of my abdomen which in spite of being impossible does NOT feel good. As uncomfortable as I am, however, I can't imagine that HE is any more cozy hanging out upside down and cramped in there with his head shoved up against what might as well be a wall at this point... All or at least much of which, Im sure, is why he decided, at one day past fully baked, to begin making his way out of me. I am perfectly fine with this. Hes seemed rather eager from the beginning and quite frankly the feeling is mutual haha
