Friday Update

I've had a stressful week - the last few days of work were tough, I fell going to my car after work on Tuesday and today I have 8 hours day of testing at work starting at 7am.  I've decided to go on maternity leave a week early because of back and pelvis pain and when I saw the midwife yesterday we faxed all the paper work.  I think it was a good decision - I couldn't bear thinking that I had three more days of work left!  I may be a wimp going on early leave, but I need to stay healthy.  I am worried about getting bored, lazy and uncomfortable until I deliver!  I have a lot to do still before pumpkin arrives, but I've noticed when I don't work I get extra lazy at home.

And yes, I'm writing this at 4:30 am because apparently Pumpkin likes to dance or do aerobics starting at 3am!  I had to be up at 5am anyway so I though I'd get up early, make a decent breakfast and update everyone on my decision to leave work early.

I'm really looking forward to tomorrow where I get to see a ton of my friends (and some family) at my baby shower at Amey's.  Jen is coming in for the weekend which will be wonderful as well.  It's going to be so fun!

Lazy is nature's way of telling you to take it easy. Listen to your body.
Surely you will find so many things to do to prepare for the baby, you won't have time to become bored.
Just stay well. Hope you weren't hurt when you fell.
Love,
