I am still pregnant. I think I might be this way forever. Only in the past several days have I started to feel uncomfortable. Yes, the heartburn has been bad for a while (I am keeping TUMS in business), and I have been tired alot, but I noticed in the past few days that I really can't keep going up and down the stairs cause I get out of breath really easily. I think the baby is still very high up and so it's pushing on my lungs and compromising my breathing. Drop already baby! But then I've read that when the baby drops you have trouble walking because the baby is taking over in your hips and pelvis. I'm not sure what is better at this point.
Overall though, I cannot complain at all. I had a doctor's appointment New Year's eve and she said the baby most likely wouldn't come this weekend, which she was right about. On New Year's eve, Marty and I got rear ended by some JERK in a maserati. We were completely stopped at a red light and he came plowing into us, claims he just got the car and missed the brake. Ugh, what a pain. We are both fine, poor Rosie was in the car with us and went flying forward but is fine. But I was in the hospital for a few hours on New Year's Day just making sure the seat belt didn't do any damage. I got to check in on the Labor and Delivery floor and kind of scope out the situation there. So that was kind of good. I had been there on a tour before but hadn't actually stayed there for a few hours. I kept telling the nurses I hoped to see them VERY soon. :) The baby had a great heartbeat and bloodwork came back fine. We were very lucky. Our poor car though needs a new bumper in the back so I'm expecting us to either bring Baby Robinson home in a rental car or my little corolla.
Will post some pictures shortly. I couldn't be inspired to take any yesterday. Mart and I have been watching lots of tv (the office, home improvement shows) and lots of movies (Up in the Air, It's complicated, Sherlock Holmes, (500) days of summer, etc.) and hanging out with our first baby, Rosie, before the big day arrives. It has been really nice to be able to relax together and not have to go to school or worry too much about business at work. Marty has been working alot so that he can hopefully take two weeks off when the baby comes and I am still here at work until this Friday. After that I'll work from home til I can't anymore. Trying to maximize the 12 weeks unpaid leave I get.
Hope to have more news soon! In the meantime, don't ask me why the baby hasn't come yet... :)
