Next Week?

I went to the doctor today for my weekly visit.  I met with one of the Doctors that I haven't seen since October!  That is a looong time.  She was very positive and reassuring through out the appointment.  I would love it if she could be the one to deliver me!  She kept telling me how good I look and I couldn't help but laugh.  This past week, pregnancy has really hit me.  I have started retaining water and just feel puffy, my face, fingers and feet/legs mainly.  I have not been able to sleep through the night so I am just exhausted and feel like an emotional basket case. It was just ironic because this is the worst I have felt since the days of morning sickness and she was so nice.

Then she started asking if I had my bag packed and car seat in the car.  I said that I had my toiletries packed but that's about it.  She recommended that I go ahead and do those things.  Then she said, "she could come anytime starting next week."  NEXT WEEK?!?!  How did it get here so fast? 

All of the sudden I feel a little panic to get everything done!  I have my sub plans done...for the most part.  I have baby supplies...for the most part.  I know what I am doing...for the most part.  My house is ready...for the most part.  It is just a little crazy and stressful!  I am still waiting for that "nesting energy" that I hear all about to kick in.  I have had no desire to get things done lately.  I come home and just want to sleep.  I need a kick in the pants to finish these last few things!

I just can't believe how fast everything is happening (it has been 9 months in the making but it still seems fast)!  So, wish me luck these next few weeks and pray for my sanity.  I may be freaking out a little bit!

all of your nesting is being used up by those crazy 5 and 6 yr olds you deal with every day!! I had NO nesting energy when I was teaching pregnant!! the 2nd and 3rd- I got it a little- but definitely not with zeb!! just sit down. put your feet up. and watch tv or read a book :) when you aren't chasing after all of those rugrats that is!!
