I'm feeling a little moody these days...

I'm now a week away from my due date and I've sort of calmed down a little. Last week I went into panic mode thinking this little guy was going to arrive early, but who am I kidding? He'll be late. I see the midwife tomorrow and maybe she'll have an idea. Or not.
Today for some reason I looked at his little clothes arranged in his dresser and smelled them (I don't know what possessed me) and they smelled like a dirty, old musky basement and I was suddenly really upset. The dresser came from a basement and the smell hasn't disappeared like I thought it would. I took everything out of it and told Scott we're simply going to have to get a new dresser (hopefully I can find one for a decent price that's new, or in good condition and not stinky. I have a lead at United Furniture Warehouse). I freaked out just before Brianna was born too, about cat hair. I almost got rid of our cats because there was too much hair that I couldn't get rid of. Maybe it's normal to suddenly get irrational about things at this stage in pregnancy, or maybe it's just me.
I'm also at that point in the pregnancy that I'm feeling quite ready to be comfortable again. I've had a pretty easy go of things this time around (and with Bree too), but it's difficult sleeping and I want normal clothes again.
Hopefully by sometime next week, though, we'll have our new little son and I can become rational and less moody....or just more so, we'll see. At least I'll be bale to sleep on my stomach again!

Moody is a good sign! My moods go out of control right at the end every time. I would probably freak out about things like the dresser and cat hair, too, except that my blood pressure goes really high at the end of my pregnancies and so all my freak out energy gets focused on that.

Can't wait to hear the news of your little one's arrival. Praying for an excellent birth.
