Sleep...

What's that ??? To say I have been restless for the last few weeks would be putting it mildly. It is almost impossible to get comfortable during the night. I find myself waking several times to stretch, walk around, switch sides, and re arrange the pillow (s). But I know the end is near.

This Friday will be my 37 week appointment. The doctor said if I wanted they could check me. I am debating on whether or not I want to know the verdict. I have been having contractions on and off, and when I say this I mean- when time able they are 8 minutes apart. I did bring this up at last weeks appointment, and the doctor's words were " lets hope it ripening that cervix" It sure better be doing something, lady - It hurts !!

I know I have said this before, but my baby room is still not complete. I have come to terms with this. I am doing the best I can. I am still working,( at my job ) and trying to get ahead since I have such minimal coverage for my leave. At times when I get home from work, I sleep for two hours or so. Which leaves just enough time to get a few things done around the house and back into bed. I am letting some things go and hope that when my family comes to town they will help with this stuff around the house. I know I can count on both of my grandmas and my mom for some support in this department.

I'll be praying you get some sleep and that the contractions are doing something more than just hurting!

FWIW . . . Isaac's over 3 months old and still without a completed nursery!
