I know I said I wasn't going to update, and here I have updated twice... I'm just so bored - everythings done, and the only thing left to do it wait. We took Cayden to COSI today just to let him run and play - kind of a last hoorah before things go crazy (though I'm also hoping to take him to the park tomorrow, if it's not too cold.) I was SO exhausted while I was there and after I got home (Jeremy, bless his heart did pretty much all the chasing. It's amazing how just walking while being this pregnant can wear you out!) I was actually waiting for it to be a "decent" time so I could go to bed.
Now it's almost 1 AM and I'm still awake. Why? I don't know. It's been like these this past week. End of pregnancy, or excitement?
Everyone keeps asking me if I'm excited... And I'm not really. It's hard to explain - I WANT to be excited, I know I SHOULD be excited, but I'm just having a hard time grasping that there WILL be another baby here in one more day. It's like, I get that I'm pregnant. But I just can't fathom that pregnancy = baby and baby time is almost here. I know it doesn't make sense. It's hard to explain. I mean when I think about a baby, I do get excited, but it's like I can't grasp that it's my baby, if that makes any sense? I just don't think it's going to hit me until he's here, when I see him I think I'm going to be like, OMG I'm a Mom again and get super excited. But right now I'm almost like, a baby? Psssht.
I dunno, like I said. It's so hard to explain, because when I think about dressing him in his tiny clothes I get excited, or holding his tiny body I get excited, or introducing him to Cayden I get excited, but I just can't believe it's over and he'll be here.
Plus I think it's hard for me to get excited because I also know with baby comes pain, lol. Maybe if there wasn't a surgery attached I'd feel better, but I'm nervous about the surgery so...
Now I'm babbling. I guess I just wanted to say, I can't believe it's over. Some parts of pregnancy seemed to drag, but for the most part it went by really quickly, and while I can't say I'm sad it's over (I don't love being pregnant, I love the end result, and I love moments of pregnancy, but patience isn't my strong suit, lol.) I just... Can't believe it's over.
Just wanted to add a few pictures of my first baby - because I'm also really nervous about leaving him. Plus, as dumb as it sounds I'm worried that since I was so blessed with such a gorgeous, healthy baby that this one is going to have issues. Stupid, eh?
I'm loving the OSU apparel! Was that from this weekend? Also, good luck on everything tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteYes Kelly, it was from the OSU-Michigan game :-) I thought it was a good picture.
