Get Him Out!

With only 13 days left until Jamie's due date, tension is building in our house. Jamie is not sleeping well, which in turn is affecting my sleep. She is very irritable and exhausted. We just want him out! We can't wait to see his face and take a deep breath and relax.

I can't help but laugh when my wife tries to roll her body off of the couch. I make an attempt to assist her, but I usually bust out in laughter. The look of concentration on her face cracks me up. She squints her eyes, puckers up her bottom lip and flings her legs and arms up to get forward momentum. Can you see it?

Though she hates me laughing at her she usually gets a bit of a chuckle also. The only problem is that baby Charlie is pushing into mommy's bladder! Pressure on the bladder mixed with laughter could result in undesirable results. Don't worry, no accidents yet.

I know it sounds mean to laugh at my poor, 38 week pregnant wife when she can't move herself off of the couch. I do appreciate that she is carrying my child and has to put up with me through it all. I try to be patient with the huffing and puffing, which luckily hasn't been a lot. The biggest complaint is the sleep issue. Have you ever been so tired that you feel sick?

We both agree that it is time to get him out!
