This nesting / cleaning malarky isn't getting the baby moving and I wish it would! I have this crazy hope that I'll go into labour and all will go smoothly and naturally, thus avoiding the necessity for the c/section. I know it'll be a bit risky, but it's got to be worth a try. Today's energetic feats have involved shampooing the carpets upstairs and down, vacuuming, clearing out all of the cupboards in the kitchen, cleaning them and re-stacking everything and lastly cooking dinner for some friends who are coming over tonight (I have to fit a shower in somewhere before they get here too!).
Last night was a full moon as well, you'd think THAT would get the baby out! Dunno why I'm so impatient really, I mean I'm only 36 wks so I shouldn't *expect* anything to happen. I'm not terribly uncomfortable although I am approaching the waddling stage. My lower back is getting sore though - I think the pressure-washing of the deck yesterday did it in somewhat, I could barely get out of bed this morning and had to take a couple of Tylenol for the pain. Today's shenanigans will probably not help either.
D asked me yesterday... 'Mum, is the baby naked in there?' Yes, he is. "Oh my goodness, quick eat a blanket so he has some covers!"
