And it sucks to be pregnant this long. Seriously.

The kid is out of room... and his movement style changed... prompting a quick visit to the OB today for another NST to make sure he's okay. Yep. He's fine. He's just out of room. Great kid... take the hint and come out. I had one contraction while hooked up to the monitor and it only went up to a “20.” Hurt like hell... and the REAL contractions go up to like 140. Fun.

I'm to that stage where:

1. if I don't answer the phone people panic and think I've had the baby and am keeping it a secret. Trust me. If we know you well enough to be on a phone-call friendship... you'll know within a couple of hours of the little guy's arrival.

2. All people can think of to say to me is “Hang in there.” Please, please do not say that to me. My OB said it to me today and I wanted to punch him in the face. Here's the thing... I DON'T HAVE A CHOICE. I cannot make this baby come any faster. I can't choose to be NOT pregnant for a few hours and take a break. If I could, I would do it. I'd hand the uterus over to Drew for 24 hours and let him be pregnant for a couple of days. I have no choice but to “hang in there.” Do not suggest it as a coping mechanism.

3. I'm very crabby. (see 1 & 2 above)

So, that's all I've got today. Complaints and rants. Boy am I fun to be around!
