Completely miserable

Tag: Baby,GeneralEmily @ 9:22 pm

So again, I’m sick. I caught a bad sinus cold about 3 weeks ago and suffered through it and seem to have gotten it again…well, unless I just never got rid of it. Seems to be worse this time, can’t breathe at all, coughing up a lung it seems, and constant headache. I even had a fever last night and had to call my doctor just to make sure everything was okay. I’ve been on the couch for 2 days, and luckily I have off work tomorrow as well to continue to rest. I’ve been trying to pack a little bit here and there when I get some energy.

To add to it, Little Sean continues to grow, despite the fact that I swear I have no more room for him. And everything on the internet that says that babies start to ‘slow down’ in the last few weeks is a lie! He’s busy as ever in there, doing his gymboree time and soccer playing. Even when I’m sick this kid doesn’t give me a break! 🙂

I have also started to have some stronger contractions in the last few days. Now 1-2 times a day they are actually strong enough that I have to stop what I’m doing and relax through them. Hopefully that’s a sign that things are moving along! Little Sean; however, HATES them. Every time a contraction stops, I laugh because he kicks and punches for about 30 seconds as if to say “Hey!! I’m cramped enough in here, quit smashing me!!”

I’m stuck in the middle of whether I want him to come early (I’m SO done with being pregnant – I don’t think being sick helps very much) or late (after we move) to make the move easier. At this point I’m hoping for early, but I doubt I’d be that lucky. Colleen’s guess is coming up quickly…maybe he likes his grandma and will want her to win ;-)!
