OB Appointment today

38 weeks, 3 days!

My ability to sleep at night is finally gone. I get so many cramps and pains in my belly that sleeping is almost more trouble than it's worth. I tend to sleep much better in the middle of the afternoon than I do at night so I definitely need to get some naps in today.

I take my cat in for her annual exam and shots this morning, then meet with my OB at 2pm. Last week when I saw her she said that if I hadn't had Nathan by today that she'd do an internal exam and see how things were going. I'm really tempted to see if there's a way to schedule an induction as I am just not doing well anymore, physically and mentally. I am just exhausted. I can't hold a fork or a pen, can't sleep, can't get comfortable, my feet look like they're about to explode from being so swollen... So negative, I know, but this pregnancy is really starting to wear me down! I'm afraid that if I don't have Nathan soon that I'll fall into a major depression and I don't want that.

Things at home are good otherwise. My husband is trying to negotiate a higher salary with RIM and he called NDS yesterday to see what was up with them and if they were planning to give him an employment offer. So job stuff is still a bit up in the air. My teenage son is still here and he has expressed an interest in moving to Waterloo with us if we go there for my husband's job at RIM. I'm pretty happy about that :)

I'll post more later about my OB visit.
