One more week **warning..some whining**

[abbynzachsmommy]

In just a few more days our new baby will be here. I can't tell you how happy I am about that. I have to say the last trimester of this pregnancy has probably been the hardest of all my pregnancies. I mean, I know over all I can't complain. I have had 3 healthy pretty much serious complication free pregnancies. But this last trimester has killed me. I'm sore ALL the time. I have had to resort to taking Ambien (a LAST resort for me)  because 3 hours of sleep a night wasn't enough to keep me going. I was making myself sick because of a lack of sleep.  My hips hurt to the point I can barely walk, and my sciatic nerve is giving me a fit. I keep being told to "take it easy" but how in the WORLD am I supposed to take it easy with a 19 month old, a 3 year old and a home to run? My husband works LOONNGGG hours most days, but he helps me where he can. Its still not much (although I am very thankful for any help he gives me).  I know I'm complaining, but I just have to get it out.

My induction is set for friday (if you have something negitive to say about that...don't bother...your comment will be deleted) and this week can't go by fast enough. My parents will be here thursday, and Abby is so excited. I'm just ready to hold my new little baby, finally find out if we will have another boy or another girl.

Oct. 12, 2009 at 5:53 PM Congratulations!!! I have never wanted to be induced, but with my 3rd I asked my doctor at an appointment. She was shocked (and pleased - always worried that my babies are BIG). I was SO exhausted with my 3rd one and was afraid I would end up in the insane asylum if I went another night without sleep! So happy you will soon be holding your baby. Our #4 is coming in about 7 weeks!!
