alright, this mama has had enough. i know i have a little over 2 weeks left, but i am so ready to get this little guy out of my body! im exhausted and everything hurts. i wake up in the middle of the night with swollen, numb hands and aching hips. i cant get any lower back relief and i feel like im going to fall over when i walk. baby is still moving around quite a bit, but theres not much room left. speaking of which…hes rolling around right now! at least hes dropped a bit and is getting into position.
last week, i was 1 cm dilated. im going to the doctor today and theyll check me again. im just tired and want to get this waiting over with. ive never been good at waiting. when i would wait for my friends to come over when i was young, id practice my violin or my piano. it was an easy way to pass the time. i cant practice for 2 weeks straight lol. work is getting difficult too. just hard to get around and deal with the kiddos. and everyone, every second of the day…“oh hey! how are you feeling? looks like that baby will be here any minute! has he dropped? are you gonna breast feed? have you picked a name? whose going to watch the baby? when are you coming back to work? are you coming back to work? whose going to replace you? are we not having music class until you get back? are we canceling the winter concert this year?”…all day…i know my coworkers mean well, but when i get the same question from everyone at different points during the day, it gets annoying. just say hi to me and leave me alone lol. or talk to me about something other than my pregnancy/becoming a mom. then i get all the advice too....i know they mean well, but i just want to be treated like a normal human.
hubby has been great. doing the dishes and letting me go to sleep when i want to. hes still wanting lots of sex, but nothing has put me into labor yet. we’ve really been connecting over the last couple weeks and getting ready to be a family of 3. its been nice. hopefully, we’ll be going to the comedy club on friday. its comedy week here in NYC and dann has been wanting to go to a comedy club for a few months now. so hopefully i dont fall asleep at 8 so we can go lol. im just glad hes getting excited and wanted to spend extra time with me and hes helping out more around the house.
speaking of which…i need to pick up a bit around here. just messy, not dirty.
i should be writing unit plans…i have no motivation right now to write unit plans. i just want to use my day off to relax. and eat lol. i also need to go to the teachers retirement headquarters to register my retirement plan. im so confused as to how much im supposed to put in or what to do. i need to talk to someone. then the next step will be going to the UFT to fix my pay grade (another day).
alright, i better get going since ive been up for 2 hours and havent done anything yet. later!
