I have been pregnant for 281 days. That is one day too long. Today I have my 40 week check-up and I am requesting the doctor to pull the ole plug. I'm done. No more preggers. I can't sleep, baby's foot is lodged in my right side (hurting my ribs) and I'm SO sick of peeing every 5 minutes. I'm done and done. Done. Finished.
Let us not forget how terrified I am for what comes next. Induction? Terrified. As unnatural as this sounds, I have no desire to experience giving birth. Zero. What do I do? Oh wait..... punch me in the face and wake me when its over. There you go. In fact, I don't think there is enough puppies to hold in the world that could make me want to give birth. I just don't want to be pregnant anymore. This is definitely a problem.
To all my readers out there-- if I contact you because I had baby, please DO NOT post anything on facebook. Chris and I would like the opportunity to share our news with you-- not the other way around. So, please.... be considerate. Thanks.
The Jennie Show is a daily dose of how I view the world; no sweatpant too tight, no puppy too cute and no subject off limits. 39 years of life experience has brought me my awesome husband, an unruly but very soft-earred dog, and two delicious children. I love being a mom, cooking, ready historical biographies, running, skiing, Christmas, sauvignon blanc, lawn chairs and cheesy yacht-rock-style music (most often heard in a dentist office).

Mum's the word. I remember how agonizing those last days/weeks can be... Everyone always told me that there would come a point when I would just want to be done...considering the process involved in being done I didn't think that could possibly true. Alas, it is. Hang in there. Your boy is just waiting for his perfect birthday.
