30 weeks

Well, I hit another of my arbitrary milestones.  I am 30 weeks today.  That means 7 weeks until I am considered full term.  10 weeks until her guess date, and 12 weeks until they make her come out of me. I honestly think I am closer to the 7 week cut off than the 12 and I really, really hope for that.

It really wasn't an eventful day.  We went to church, got free bread and cake after church, came home and took a tiny little nap, then spent a couple of hours doing Endrit's thesis corrections.

I am extremely tired.  Because of contractions I find it hard to get to sleep at night.  That and the swelling in my legs.  Not being able to sleep means I am very uncomfortable which makes me sore, sore, sore!  That and the contractions make me sore too.  I am now able to tell the difference between contractions I have to worry about and ones that I don't.

Regardless of all of this, I am happy being pregnant.  I like to feel her move around.  I see it as a miracle in every way.  I am trying to not complain too much about the discomfort.  It will be nice when Marsi will be out of the womb.  It will definitely not be easier, but I can't wait to meet her. 7-12 more weeks...not too bad.

I think you are closer to the 7 weeks as well. A HUGE milestone will be Friday! Not for the baby, but for the parents, especially Endrit.
