A pumpkin for my little pumpkin...
My sister-in-law, Anna seems to thrive when she's pregnant. She's pregnant with her fifth and is doing great. If she ever feels bad, you would never know it. Me, on the other, I complain too much and don't thrive during pregnancy. In a normal pregnancy, I have the typical nausea and yuckiness at first, then a few months of feeling pretty good. Several months before the baby comes I get so very ready to not be pregnant.
That's the feeling I remember most of all- just ready to not be pregnant anymore. Then came this pregnancy. I don't remember the desire to hold the baby being this strong. Maybe it's my history of miscarriages or new technology, but I've had this incredible desire to hold the baby like I don't remember. In the past few weeks the false contractions have started overshadowing my desire to hold the baby and I'm back to - just so ready to not be pregnant.

I'm at 36 and a half weeks and have gained 33 pounds. I have to wake up at night to turn over, then wake up to go to the bathroom, then wake up to get something to drink. I can't wait for the baby to get here so I can get some sleep :)
...only my little pumpkin isn't so little.
