Baby has started kicking my butt this week. I'm 32 weeks and 3 days today and have decided that 5 whole days of work in a week is just too much. I've been tired on a Friday afternoon before, but this is a new level.
And I know, once baby comes and won't sleep and I'm sleep-deprived, it will be even worse, but I'm complaining about right now.
Also, suddenly he's very heavy. I've had round ligament and pelvic pain for a few months, but this is more. Usually when I go for a walk at lunch, I feel better once I'm up and moving around for a few minutes. On Wednesday, the pain and weight just kept getting worse and worse. I have some supportive, ahem, undergarments, but they're not doing the trick, so today I ordered 3 heavy duty maternity bands to try out. Hopefully one of them will work.
I really do want to make it to 40 weeks, because I have it all set in my head that baby will be here in late March and then I have my scheduled leave planned accordingly, but I'm starting to understand why women start saying "Alright, I'm done with this whole pregnancy thing now."
That's my complaining for the moment.
On the other hand, Jason came to my prenatal appointment yesterday morning and the doctor showed him where the baby's head was and how to feel it. So that's pretty neat.
