10 days left, but who's counting??

Okay, we have 10 days to go. And they seem like they will take an eternity. But, I know that April 7 will be here before we know it and that our lives will never be the same once she gets here.

But, in the meantime, I have come up with a list of questions that I'm tired of answering and the answers I really want to give but don't because I'm too polite.

1. "When are you due?"

Due? Due for what?

2. "How long do you have left?"

About 30 minutes.

3. "How are you feeling?"

Terrible. Pretty darn uncomfortable. How do you THINK I'm feeling? OR I feel like running a marathon. How do you THINK I'm feeling???

4. "Are you excited?"

No. I'm wondering why I ever thought this was a good idea.


I really think that people ask these questions because they don't know what else to say and they feel like they need to say SOMETHING. However, when you're this pregnany, even complete strangers are asking these questions.

For the record, I've been feeling pretty good. The swelling is kind of getting to me, and like ALMOST ALL pregnant women at this stage of pregnancy, I'm uncomfortable most of the time. And, we're very excited for her to get here. And, as noted above, we have 10 days left until the due date.

But, sometimes I just get sick of answering the nice way. :-)
