PA-thetic!

Addellyn: "Mommy, why do you don't want to sleep with daddy anymore?"

(I really hate taking pictures of myself, this is 34 weeks, but I thought it might help me get some sympathy, especially since my mirror is FILTHY!)

But, apparently this HUGE, dropping belly isn't enough to convince Addellyn that I really love and want to be in the bed with daddy, and I am not happy about NEEDING to sleep in this nest of pillows, bean bag and rocking recliner every night (for the past 5 weeks!): It's hard to explain to a 4-year-old that my hips collapse and then my pubic symphisis snaps and pops (causing horrible amounts of pain and paralysis) any and every time I try to lie flat or on my side in a bed...no matter how many pillows I try to wedge around myself! Oh how I miss my nice soft bed! My body is having a LOT of extra painful problems trying to carry baby number 4, I guess it is trying to tell me something??But, at least this pathetic, waddling, nest sleeping mommy is still awesome enough to take her kids to the NEW park! (so, at least they know I still love them, even if I am not too into daddy anymore :))

Thank goodness the weather has been soooo warm, it really helps keep us all much happier!

The pains and suffering of being pregnant! I am sorry Andrea! Sounds miserable. 6 more weeks though? eh? Good luck with everything!

Hang in there! So sorry you're going through so much pain. All worth it for baby boy, right?... Right? :)

I'm glad you posted pics of you and your pregnant tummy... you look darling, but I know you don't feel that way. I like your temporary bed setup :)
