So this is how I feel today…
I’m sure some of you are sick to death of hearing about this impending birth. Ah well, you’ll have to deal. It’s pretty amazing – all of the thoughts and emotions that you experience as you sit and wait for a baby to show up. Angelo and I have already shared quite a few on this blog, so I’ll spare you. Just know that when it’s your time to go through this, you’ll understand the need to blab about it all the time. For example, I don’t particularly like to “blog,” yet I find myself *needing* to do it to keep my head from imploding.
I’m pretty thankful. I have had a relatively easy pregnancy. No complications, no ‘scares,’Â just a lot of anxiety – though thankfully that has subsided now that I feel the baby all the time. Yet, with this easy pregnancy, I feel I can now say that “I’m over it.”
I’m over having to pop TUMS 647 times a day because pregnancy heart burn is from the devil himself.
I’m over having to be careful when I laugh, bend down, stand up, ok – breath, so I don’t accidentally, ah hem… have an accident.
I’m over needing a forklift to get me out of bed in the middle of the night for a trip to bathroom. Again.
And finally, I’m over having a million false alarm contractions wondering if this is *indeed* the real thing.
The sad part of all of this is, I still have a week to go. And that’s IF he comes on time. Sigh… Dominic’s worth it, though. All of this discomfort will soon be a distant memory. I’ll soon have other discomforts to blog about – aren’t you excited?!
So for now, I will try to enjoy the last FEW days I have to sleep in, do what I want, lunch with friends, and well.. do what I want… and I will enjoy the last few moments of wondering what this little person inside me looks like…
<pardon… I’m having a contraction………………………… eh, it’s a fake>

Oh my dear blogging friend, we’re not tired of hearing you talk about Dominic! If I can’t wait to see him, I can only imagine how you feel!!
I’ll see you soon for some GS :-)
