Has she dropped? Has she dropped?

I am so ready to not be pregnant anymore. I feel bad that I can't just enjoy it, but the aches and pains, the worries that she's ok, it just makes me crazy. I also want to blame IF for just wanting to "rush" through the pregnancy. All I wanted was this baby when we started our journey in May 2007. It's 2010 now and I'm STILL waiting on her and I'm getting IMPATIENT!!! I know she needs to be in there a few more weeks, but I'm terrified of giving birth vaginally to a 9 lb baby. I'm not a big girl. "Things" hurt when something goes in my body....and its nowhere NEAR 9 lbs (sorry honey, but its not).

Baby is head down and she's been doing this thing where she kicks out on the left side of me, so I feel little feet way over above my hip on my side and then she pokes her butt out the right side of me. The little bugger is stretching me out side-to-side!!! If I'm going to get stretch marks from it ::shakes fist::, we're going to have to have a talk.

Here I am at 34 Weeks, 4 days.

Dropping is wishful thinking, huh? I feel like maybe a tiny bit compared to last week. I am definitely feeling more pressure down low and sometimes feel like I get punched on the hips, its a very weird sensation. The ribcage pain has DEFINITELY gotten a lot better over the past couple weeks. However, I still have moments where its hard to breathe.

My boobs have started leaking at night. They are getting big! (Hip hip hooray!) Well, big relative for what I'm used to looking down and seeing or looking in the mirror at. I wish this big ol' belly wasn't around, I was drooling over the new swimsuits in the Victoria's Secret catalog and imagining how great some of them would look on my new boobs. I really hope I luck out and they stick around, because that would definitely be a welcome change. Belly, go away (see you next time), Boobs, you stay!

My boss's wife threw me a little shower for our group, she made the most delicious chicken and dumplings for lunch. YUM. They gave me the breast pump I registered for (Medela PISA). Awkward..... Can you tell my boss wants me back? Apparently he told her that was embarrassing, but she was like, "Well she needs it and she registered for it!" She pulled me to the side and said I didn't have to open it in front of everyone, but all but one of my coworkers (and boss) have had kids in the past couple years (some are on pg #2) so they know about these. I also got our monitor, some bottles, some blankets, some clothes. All very cute stuff!!

My other shower is Saturday and I'm excited to see all my girlfriends who I don't see enough of!
