This week has definitely been worse...but at least its getting better (as of today).
One of the major issues being work. Lots of stuff going on that I can't control and it's stressing me out to the point that for about 5 days I was waking up at 1:00AM and staying awake until 4:00 or 5:00, sometimes until it was time for work again. Aside from losing sleep, the stress was causing contractions and the worst indigestion I've ever had. Then as a topper to it all, the A/C went out at the office last Wednesday night, so Thursday until yesterday (Wed.) we had no A/C and I had to work through the weekend...it was hot, tiring, and all-in-all, very unpleasant. I'm hoping to one day look back on all of this and either shrug my shoulders or laugh-remembering what a crisis it seemed like at the time, but in the scheme of things how minor it really was.
Anyway, so the pregnancy...I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and all is well with Maddie, she's healthy and moving around A LOT. I only gained one pound in the last two weeks (probably because I sweat it all out) :o) so at least the heat was good for something. The due date's really racing up on us and there are so many things I still need to do. Going kind of crazy with it all, wondering why I didn't think to do some of it at an earlier time (like guest lists for the shower...that could have been done at anytime, but I wait until the invitations need to be sent out before even starting). Ugh!
Anyway, I know it will all work out, and things will fall into place. God has us, but it sure is hard to let go on some of these issues.
On a side note: my belly is getting so ridiculously huge that at times I'm having trouble breathing and it's getting to be a real chore to carry this extra weight around with me. While I'm no where near ready for Maddie to be here, I'm SO ready for Maddie to be here :o)
