As I'm writing this the baby is now 5 days overdue! 5 DAYS!!!!! Everyone is now giving me the sympathetic looks and the "are you getting a bit fed up now?" talks. YES I'm bloody fed up, I was fed up 3 months ago what makes you think ANYTHING has changed since then seeing as now I'm even bigger, I feel like I've been kicked in the crotch and I can't sleep without waking up every 2 and a half hours and to top it all off I have caught a bloody cold! I am soooo thrilled to be a part of this "miracle" of life. And if one more person says to me it'll be worth it in the end I will kick their arse with all of my hormonal pregnant wrath!
Aaaaaaaanyway, I'm currently sat in the living room watching "Run fatboy run" I haven't watched it in ages, I've been crawling around on the living room floor because Rom's spine is nearly in line with mine...which is not great really. The best position for her is her spine towards my front, cue being very uncomfortable in front of the telly on the floor with my arse in the air trying to get gravity to do its job. Why do people do this more than once?!
Was sorting out some things in town today which meant lots of walking, it was also pissing it down which meant the usual flip flops were out of the question. So was hunting for my trainers dreading the fact that I would probably need to tie laces and Tom was at work so I couldn't even back down on my declaration that he would never ever be helping me with my shoes. However I found my Rocketdog boots which are pull ons, "Awesome" I think "screw laces I can just pull these on and be done with it!" Hence the most uncomfortable 5 minutes as despite the fact they are pull on boots it is still really uncomfortable! Then the following conversation with the weather follows:
Me: "Ha screw you rain I'm wearing boots now! My feet will stay nice and dry and comfortable and I won't make my cold any worse."
Rain: "Ahhh but smuggy smugerson you forget some vital things"
Me: "Oh really and what would that be then?"
Rain: "1) Your boots, as with most of your shoes are made of canvas which is NOT waterproof and 2) your joggers drag along the floor which is covered in water and they're lovely and absorbant"
Me: ".....bugger"
Rain: "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
But apart from being extremely grumpy and uncomfortable things are going okay. I'm now on maternity leave and attempting to distract myself by going on a baking spree during the first week and now just making stuff to maybe sell depending on how well it turns out. Both of my parents are now back from Oman so I'm on a 3 week time limit before dad heads back and Tom's brother is now moving to Norway on monday just to add another time limit seeing as he would like to see his neice before he leaves. Maybe that's why she's not coming out too much pressure :P.
Anyway....enough of my complaining. I have been reading everybody but I'm kind of in a limbo state at the moment I want to do stuff but can't be bothered or just too...meh to actually get myself to do anything. It's very weird.
