If I get much more miserable, I may just cry for the remainder of my pregnancy. I got weepy last night because my ribs hurt, my back hurt, I was exhausted, I had a really bad crick in my neck that just added insult to injury, I could not get comfortable enough to fall asleep and I have "restless legs" so I ended up pacing the bedroom and hallway until I could no longer stand up. I had my first really bad Braxton Hicks contraction last night while I was trying to get ready for bed and I was really close to just having a complete meltdown, but Jeremy rubbed on my back and neck and helped me to relax enough to at least stop pouting so that he could go to sleep. I feel really bad because I know he is exhausted from me getting up 4 or 5 times a night and flopping to get comfortable, and I don't normally fall asleep until after 1:30 anyway, so I know he's not fully rested. But then I don't feel too bad about it because I know it is just preparing us for the long nights ahead with Sydney and if I have to suffer, so does he. I'm just hoping the next few weeks go by really fast. We have 4 baby showers coming up, so that should make the time go by faster. It will at least make the time more enjoyable.
I have a Dr. Appt. this afternoon, and I'm so ready for the time when my Dr. says "You're dilated _ centimeters!" or "Let's schedule to induce you next week!" I'm trying not to get disappointed because I know this Dr. Appt. will be uneventful but I just feel like I'm about to pop. I'm estimating that Sydney probably weighs about 7 pounds at this point. She weighed almost 4 pounds on Feb. 10 and almost 5 pounds 2 weeks after that.
Maybe I should just go home and get a really good cry in, sip on a little red wine, and pass out for a few hours. At this point something has got to give or I am going to go insane. (I didn't mention that in addition to my body's chaos, we are also laying laminate wood flooring in our 600 sq. ft. den, so the house is torn apart because all the den furniture is in the dining room/bedroom/hallway, etc. and it is driving me insane because I feel disorganized and we also found out about a week ago that we have an ant/termite colony living in one of our interior walls and if Terminex doesn't get rid of them soon, I'm going to tear the walls down myself!)

Aww Nickie. I am so sorry you're uncomfortable. I am thinking of you.
Did you receive your wedding album yet? I ordered a copy for myself as a sample album (it was just that good!) and I LOVE it.
