39 weeks

I am on the left, the fridge is on the right. Just in case you were confused...

At 39 weeks I have gained 30lbs less than I did with Ruby - although the latest pregnancy picture I have with her was at 36 weeks so I have nothing to compare to.

I'm done. I'm soooooo done with being pregnant. Forever. I am looking forward to not being an invalid, in constant pain and discomfort all. the. time. I will never do this again and I am very much ok with that.

I officially finished work. I was done with going in to the office last Tuesday and my obligation to assist via telephone and email was over on Friday. I haven't heard a word from them. No, "thank you for your extra efforts" no, "good luck, let us know when the baby arrives". Nothing. They can kiss my ass.

I have been drinking the organic red raspberry leaf tea like crazy for the past week. Praying it's going to do something for me. I also have an acupuncture appointment for this Thursday evening, hoping to get something happening with that. And although it's really hard to walk, and I pay a dear and painful price for it - I've been trying to at least get out and walk around the block with Ruby in the stroller every evening.

I have no idea what this is going to look like from the other side, but I'm very ready to be done with this phase.

I hope it comes soon too.
I am 39 weeks and 4 days.
Sleep is bad now and I have felt like baby is low down since the 6th. Aching in back and pelvis and stomach. I have no-one to look after me or talk to. I just want my mum but she is on teh other side of teh world. I am so tired of being pregnant.

Oh Tara,you look so great!

But still, I feel so bad for you being so uncomfortable. I hope that Junior makes his appearance soon and you can get back to feeling 'good' again soon.

Much love to you, miss you lots! xo
