Hi.. Well, the end of pregnancy is the cranky time, so this might not be such an uplifting post.
I'm 35.5 weeks pregnant now. The BP is alright, not great, but still much better than on medication. 148/80 last time I checked. And weight gain is great, at 34 weeks it was 25lbs. I'm wearing my wedding rings, so that shows you that I have no swelling.
The down side is everything hurts. My back hurts, my hips hurt, my legs hurt, my feet hurt. I'm looking forward to birth, I'd love to go early, though I know I won't. I have no energy.. this is the snoozy section of pregnancy.
I have a blogging friend who is just two weeks ahead of me. She and I have been e-mailing quite a bit. She's on bedrest now, so lots of time to chat online. While I'm enjoying our time together, what I really want is to get on with all the chores that need to be done around here.. but lack of energy, lack of a vacuum and lack of a lawnmower are really hindering these chores. I really wish I could afford a housekeeper to come and take care of it.. I don't like looking at the mess, and the whole house needs an overhaul.
I know what you are feeling and I pray that the Lord to send you some servents to bless you in this time. If it be with in your home or from out. Lord, please give Sombra rest and help. Thank you Lord you are such a loving God.
I hopped right over. Boy i wish I could just pop on over and see you. I could use a friend and a cup of tea today too. I can hardly believe how close you are to holding your little one in your arms instead of your belly. Time sure has gone fast. At least at this end, I am sure the next 30 days will crawl by for you. Being pregnant in the summer always makes it longer. Wow, how good you have done this pregnancy. What a blessing to have your BP doing so much better than last time and you have been so healthy this time around. God is so amazing!
I would love to be there with you holding your hands and praying with you, Watching your children scurry about the yard and fold your laundry! I always did that for my friends with small ones, I love folding laundry because I know it is the one chore we usually shove into the basket until we get to it, and we never get to it.
So if you close your eyes, you will feel someone massaging your lower back reminding you of the blessing to come. I am praying as you do, the Holy Spirit does it IRL !!!!

I am Sombra, and these are the stories from our house. We're a Messianic family where academics often take a back seat to the work and adventure of life.
