My Nesting Urges

They have rendered me immobile today. Yesterday after cleaning and finishing the dining room that Dan has painted, going to pick up a few more necessary baby items, and getting a few groceries... I wore myself thin. By 9:00 I was completely exhausted, but unable to go to sleep because my back hurt so bad. I started having a few of the "irritable" contractions again, but to no real pattern.

After laying in bed for 5 hours without one minute of sleep, I assured myself at 2:30 in the morning I could not go into work. Lucky for me too, as I was unable to straighten my back and walk this morning. Today's purpose is simply to relax and get some rest. I stayed in bed until noon, and have woken up twice just to eat and now to write here. I am feeling better and will be making it into work tomorrow, given that there is no new arrival. I have another doctor's appointment for all the regular updates and Dan and I will be taking our baby care class tomorrow evening. I'll let you know what kind of grade he gets!
