Changes

The other day when I was at the Doctor I was talking to him about things that have been going on with my body and he let me know that I have definitely changed in the last week. With that said, even more changes are taking place and I cannot wait until this is over and I have my little boy in my arms.
As the days go on things end up getting worse. Whatever pain I had the day before... I will have again, yet even more than ever. I guess I am having false labor pains because they will come in spurts. Last night I had pains from probably around 9 pm into the morning hours (maybe about 3 am). When I first went to bed I could only be about 1/2 asleep because the pains would just keep coming. After about 1 hour of that happening I moved out onto the couch, but the pains just would not get better. Around 1 am I got on the phone and called my sister, who is a nurse, to see what I should do. I didn't know if I should be going to the hospital with all the pain I was undergoing or if I should still wait things out. I realized that when I was just sitting up the pains weren't coming as often. It was when I would lay down on my side, to sleep, that the pains would come and not quit. So, I decided I would hold out and not go to the hospital.
This morning I woke up and had to take a tylenol. Not only is my head bothering me a little bit, but my legs are not happy. I keep saying that I just want to get this whole labor thing over with. This is probably the craziest thing my body has undergone in my entire life. I watch TLC quite a bit and see numerous families that have like 10 or more kids and I don't understand it. These women must have had things extremely easy with hardly any pain. Some people just love being pregnant, but I dont. I know Landon will be worth every minute of the passed 8 1/2 months I have been through, but I could not do this over and over.
It's just a matter of time now, as I can feel my body progressing more and more each day with every pain and discomfort.
