3 days to go

Youch.
So tired.
She's getting her feet right under my ribs now and pushing.
We want her out. We were hoping she'd make an appearance on Marks 30th bday, but yesterday came and went. Nothing.
I've been napping every afternoon. Marian's been protecting me ;)

Awake.....and Mark's bday.

4.50am. "I can't get no sleep"
Ooh. That's a good song.

So. 4 days til due date and it's Mark's 30th birthday today.
I was really hoping Lilly would come today. Maybe she will later, but I dunno. I don't feel anything other than her moving occasionally.
No cramps, pains, nowt.
I am just generally sore tho. Back and hips mainly.
I woke up an hour ago at 4am ish and I really don't think I'm gonna be able to sleep again.
Eugh.


Oh. I knitted some clown type booties for baby. They look cuter in real life. Gonna put buttons or pom poms on the fronts.


Anyway. I'm gonna try sleep. X

So tired

Mark and I just took the dogs up to The Downs for a walk (gorgeous little country paths, fields and woodlands) The weather's amazing today. So bright and not too hot.
We're off into Sutton to get a few bits now. I have to post something to my friend in the states, and I want to get a few tops I can wear if I go out and I need to breast feed (when she decides to arrive) but I just got SO crazy tired I feel like I could pass out and sleep for 5 hours!
I'm 39 weeks tomorrow. A week til she's due, but no sign yet.
Come on Lilly. Mummy's sore.

Update: been shopping etc. Now in O'neills getting some food. I feel like I've been kicked hard in the coccyx and that someone's tried to snap my pelvis in half :(

Weird

Had a dream I was marrying a fat man I didn't really know. I certainly didn't fancy him but we were there about to tie the knot. Standing in the isle with my wedding dress on, thinking is 'oh god. I don't love this man!!! I don't even know him. I KNOW I'll be getting a divorce immediately!!'
I was completely overwhelmed by guilt and confusion.
I woke up and for a split second I thought that it wasn't a dream, then I looked over at Mark and I'm pretty sure I've never been happier or more in love at 4am.
PHEW!
:-D

Zzzzzz

It's about 3.50am. Woke up at 3.30 with really bad acid reflux and a tummy ache.
I'm so tired and sat here in bed, propped up with Mark fast asleep next to me.
I'm really nervous about actually giving birth to Lilly. She's wiggling round in my belly all happy, and although I really want her out now, every time I get a cramp or something that's uncomfortable or a bit painful it gets me thinking about just how bad the birth pain and contractions are gonna be.
Eugh. This heartburn/reflux is making me want to be sick....

I feel crappy today.

I seem to have a bit of a cold this morning. Snotty nose, annoying cough. And I slept terribly again.
My tummy, ribs and hips kill when I try to move in the night. I'll wake up with heartburn or needing a wee and have to move super slow, using the slatted headboard of the bed to pull myself round or up. Even then I'm in agony.
I keep expecting to stand up at night and for my waters to go.
it feels like my rib and hip bones have been put in a vice, and it hurts to walk now too.
Boo.
Come on little Lilly-bear.

UPDATE:
Feeling better now, well, kinda.
Anyway, off for Chinese! Not a take out either! We're eating in! Whooo! Yummy.
And mark has the weekend off :)
