A Funny
Hee hee -Just got a Call from Shayna, My 20 year old daughter that is on the Baby countdown. YES, she is due in about 3 weeks.
Back when she was 2months preggo and complaining about the morning sickness I was trying to explain to her the usualy order of pregnancy stages.
1st the OMG I am so tired, and why wont I stop throwing up
Then the Hmm, this isnt too bad
Then the UGHHHH Is this baby EVER gonna come outta me - I feel like I am gonna pop
Then the WOW Look at all this damn ENERGY I have
Then the Labor
Well - looks like we are at stage number 4. She called me and the conversation went like this - I look at my phone and see its Shayna
Me: Hey Lady Shay
Shayna: Gotta question for ya
Me: Shoot
Shayna: Why did I just wash ALL of the baby clothes THEN iron them???
Me: Cracking up, histerically
Shayna: MOMMYY!! I mean it I can’t stop, I’ve washed and ironed the clothes, steralized the bottles, wiped down the crib, dusted the entire house and just got off of my hands and knees becuase I wanted to scrub the kitchen floor.
Me: REALLY cracking up at this point. I finally get out “OK I will be booking my ticket THIS week.
Shayna: Is this normal?
Me: Totally - not just prepare to feel like you are going to pop and be ready for all of the energy you feel now to leave as quickly as it came
Shayna - Love ya.
Me: LOL love ya too….
ROTFLMAO

Oh Aurelia, that’s too funny!!
I remember when I was pregnant with my youngest, I woke up at 3:30am and decided to start cleaning the kitchen. When my husband found out (hours later) he told the rest of the kids, “Get ready, it could be any minute now.” LOL

Does this every sound familiar - I remember that time well! I think you’re right to be booking your flight now. I don’t know who’s more anxious for this little darling to come into the world you or Shayna!
