You know you're done when....

You take the long way out of the shopping center just so that you can drive over the most speed bumps possible!

Yep, that was me on my lunch break, gently thudding my way over the speed bumps to encourage this LO to come out! I am soooo tired.

What silly things are you doing?

LOL, seriously. I'm not ready for this one to get here yet, but since my daughter was late (according to EDD) I find myself doing everything to make sure I am not pregnant in December..lol. I told DH this week....we have to start doing it twice a day....

And yes, I am squating in my chair at work right now.

My dh would fall over if I told him that at this point! (because he'd be so happy I mean)

Yeah, here is the problem there. I have the desire, for sure. But imagine being deathly hungry and someone puts a cheesecake and a Whopper 10k away from you. THen says...hey, food is there...and you are like, yeah, but man that it some work to get it! Same idea. THe thought is good, but the manuvering and effort is just almost not worth it...

Driving around and around and around in the parking lot so that I can get a CLOSE stall....especially if I know I have to walk all the way to the back of the store I'm going to.


Sitting down in the middle of the mall to let DS look at the fishes as long as he wants because I sooooo need a break from walking around.


I prefer staying home in just a big t-shirt and panties because it's just soooo much more comfortable than anything else I have to wear....and actually, I almost want to ditch the undies too, because they are getting tight and uncomfortable. :


I rather not go to the store all by myself because if DH is driving, he can just drop me off by the entrance, then go park.


I prefer Starbucks that have a drive thru because standing in line just seems like so much more of a challenge.


Banned dtd 'till evening hours so that I don't have to deal with the subsequent uncomfortable BH all day long.


Soon, we'll switch to day time only (vs evening) so that I don't find myself in labor in the wee hours of the morning, like my last two kids.....I think that if I had avoided dtd before going to sleep, I wouldn't have gone into full blown labor until at least a few hours later which would have allowed me more sleep.

You know you're done when you spend your DD's sacred nap time sorting the mail from the last two months bc you will shoot yourself in the head if it is still sitting there when you bring home the baby.

Ugh! Why can't I just be a normal, lazy American and just throw everything in the garbage instead of my RECYCLE/SHRED/FILE/KEEP piles? Even now, I cannot throw that much paper in the garbage.

When you are leaving work early to go to the gym to do some kind of bouncing related workout even though you were too tired to sit up in your chair at work all day. :

Ahh, that sounds all too familiar. Unfortunately I spend all of DD's nap time organizing and running around cooking and cleaning because it is literally the only 1 1/2 hours/day I have to do anything like that and no one else is going to do it and I refuse to 1. starve and 2. eat off paper plates (although I'm getting close on that one).

It's been like that for a while over here--what an excellent description! In fact Dh keeps joking it will be 2008 til we DTD again...and it probably will...but PP sex is a whole other thread. The other night he said I was so big he "couldn't find the hole" He was joking of course, but puh-leez. Way to make a pregnant woman feel good about her body!

I told dh we could dtd 3 times a day once he gets here! Although I doubt baby will stay in long if we do that. That much sperm has got to do something. Only 3 more weeks baby!!!

Back on topic...really, I'm not too done yet, but last time I found myself literally running up and down the stairs trying to get labor started. What a sight that must have been!

I am tempted to buy a basting tool and ask him to make a deposit every day. Seriously! WHO has the energy and comfort to do this everyday? For me I am lucky for once a month, and even then, the last time was a disaster. I was so uncomfortable, we couldn't finish in the "traditional" way, so no big boy hormones for my cervix!
