The novelty has worn off

OK, I have to say that the novelty of this whole pregnancy thing has begun to wear off. I don't need to hear one more person tell me that I look like I'm going to pop, or that I must be having twins, or that the baby will be a linebacker fer sure. I am ready to sleep without feeling the red-hot dagger of a pinched nerve under my ribs. I am ready to sleep without having to rearrange four different pillows each time I turn over. I am ready to sleep facing Jeff instead of away from him, because it's uncomfortable for me to sleep on my left side. I'm ready for a glass of wine, a real mojito, a beer. Most of all I'm ready to get some exercise (besides swimming) - specifically, for a nice long hike in the woods. Seven more weeks to go.
