40 weeks

Tomorrow marks 40 weeks and still no baby. I'm getting pretty miserable and doubting that I'm even going to have a baby...

My belly is stretched to capacity and I have a rash all over it from being stretched so much. Its no fun and really itchy...makes for a fun time trying to sleep. I had a pretty big melt down this morning and let myself cry...I've been fighting it for several days, but the tears had to come at some point. Needless to say, I feel a little better and after a good shower and some make-up and doing my hair, I've managed to pick myself up by my boot straps (or flip flops since my feet don't fit into shoes anymore) and pull myself together.

I have a dr. appointment this afternoon and I'm hoping he'll have some sort of encouraging words to get me through. Although, he tends to be over encouraging and has been telling me for 3 weeks that the baby will come "any day now"...

So, life isn't really totally bad and it definitely could be much worse...I have to keep telling myself that. :)

Hang in there Heath! The babe will come soon...I know the feeling of the feet not fitting into any shoes and, let's be honest, it just sucks. I will be praying for you these next few days - especially for a safe and healthy delivery for you and the baby! Love you friend!
