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.
