One month to go

Finally, the countdown has brought me to the last month. I couldn't be more happy, more excited, and a little nervous. At the end of this week, most books deem me at term. Now I know that the chances of me actually having this baby in the next three weeks are unlikely, but I can't seem to not let myself drift into thinking... will it be this week?

The last trimester has certainly been interesting. I never in my life have thought that I would look at garbage on the floor and say, "it just isn't worth picking up." Seriously, bending over to do, well, just about anything is mostly out of the question. I roll off the couch and bed rather than attempting to pull myself up. Strangely enough, I don't feel top heavy. Not like I am going to tip over just standing up. Just plain lazy pretty much.

And the heartburn...what the heck is up with that! Jereme and I both sing the Tums song everyday because I gobble one down pretty much after every meal. At least they help a little, but I've never had heartburn before, so it's weird to have. Makes me almost consider not eating certain foods... I said almost! I still love food, always have, probably always will. I try to keep it down to one treat per day, but then I usually talk myself into two. Oh well, as long as I'm not gaining too much weight and I continue to eat other healthly things, right?

I think we've finally passed all of our planned events until the baby is born, which means no more Sara Sober Cab! I told Jereme that for these last couple of weeks he needs to stay sober enough to drive me to the hospital, just in case. Wishful thinking... I think. Regardless, I'm not even going to attempt to stay up past midnight these last couple of weeks, just makes me to cranky.

And just when I thought I couldn't get any bigger, my tummy popped even more. This is ridiculous. Even the stretchy pants don't stretch enough. Jereme's old USCM sweats are the best. I wear them with a matching sweater and Jereme calls me the gray crayon. I don't care, its comfy. At least I still dress up for work :) Will post pics next week.

Alas, I need a nap. Check in next week!
