Yeah today is the first time I have worn jeans, size 6 stretch, since I found out I was pregnant. They fit in the legs but of course they don't zip up at the waist...LOL! I really think the baby is coming a week or so before the expected due date of October 15th. My doula thinks he is coming on the 5th or 6th. B and I feel like he will be making his appearance soon too. B talks to my belly and says "you need to come out, you need to let your mommy eat her own food!" LOL! I was like "um no, he needs to come when he's good and ready, which I hope is closer to the 15th!" But the baby does eat almost all my food. I woke up this morning feeling so famished that I felt weak. I actually had to eat a clementine at like 2 am because I felt so sick and I couldn't fall asleep. My blood sugar dips so low sometimes, I panic because I start feeling really sick really fast. That is why I am so happy I am having a homebirth because unlike in the hospital, I can feel free to eat and drink as I please. I know if I was in labor for a long time and I was in the hospital, I would probably cause a scene because once I get hungry and my blood sugar drops, I can get SO cranky and would probably want to fight a nurse if I asked for food and they gave me ice chips! I don't understand how someone can be in labor for like 16 hours and not eat or drink the whole time! Labor is an endurance event! Anyway I am going to peace out now and just chill! Later!
