Tick Tock Tick Tock

A good friend once referred to this time period of pregnancy as feeling like you are a ticking time bomb. I'm beginning to feel that way myself.

It seems impossible that I could remain pregnant any longer. And yet I awake everyday, still pregnant. The wheels are starting to fall off a bit, however. I've gone from turtle slow to sloth slow speeds. And sleeping is a thing of the past. I'm either having hot flashes or I'm trying to figure out where to place my belly for ultimate comfort. Still, everyday I spring out of bed just thinking, "maybe today is the day!" I imagine the birthing process is probably a lot like finding love, you can't anticipate it. It just happens one day, out of the blue, and it knocks you on your ass.
