36 weeks & 6 days...but who's counting really?

I will be 37 weeks pregnant on Sunday. I am SOOOOOO ready to be done! There are times that I love being pregnant. I love to feel the baby wiggle and kick. I love having an excuse to eat a little extra of my favorite things! And, let's be honest, when my belly is huge, my boobs look a LOT smaller! :) However, when I get to this point, it gets to be a little much for me. My hips and back are extremely painful, especially at night. I feel like I am constantly trying to catch my breath, and my heart races when I do something as simple as walk up the stairs. The heartburn is ridiculous...oh, and I am really tired of getting up every two hours to pee...

I know I shouldn't complain. I truly feel blessed that my body can do amazing things, like grow an entire human being, but at the end, it's just so darn uncomfortable! I am just super anxious to get this little one here, meet him/her, and start getting my body back...so here's to hoping that this baby will come sooner rather than later and certainly not any later than Sept 25th, which is the actual due date!!
