Oi! The microphone’s not working…
September 5, 2006
I have a lot of different thoughts running through my head right now, so I can’t promise that this post will really follow any particular theme.
Let’s just say that I’m ready for Baby Girl to be born. I thought I was doing so well…you know, making progress every week…UNTIL TODAY. My Dr didn’t even lie to me. She just said, “Eh, about the same.” Nice. Uh, hello? Want to know what makes a hormonal pregnant woman even more crazy? She could have said, “Eh, about a centimeter and a half.” hahaha…I’m talking HALF A FREAKING CENTIMETER HERE. At least I would have felt like I was moving in the general area of the right direction!!
It doesn’t help when I read about other women on my board who are due right around my same time and either going into labor already or are dialated to 3-4 centimeters. Good grief.
But, at the same time…what’s amazing to me is that I’m not as crazed/anxious/antsy as I could be. Seriously–some of the women on my preggo board are quite literally insane about it. One said she cried for HOURS after her doctor appointment this morning because there was no change from last week. Uh, no. That wouldn’t be me. I’m enjoying my quiet time. I’m baking, reading Harry Potter (again), and just lounging around in general. I figure I’ve got to get in the lolling while I still can. So am I ready for our baby to make her grand entrance? Hell yes…but am I going to go out and buy some castor oil tonight? Oh hell no. I like my veg time too much to go through that!!
