I haven't, but I am having, on average, two contractions an hour. But for all I know, I could hang on for another month.

I'm sleeping terrible hours - one night, 12, the next barely five. And I'm hardly eating, because Jumper has decided that my stomach doesn't need to hold more than 2-3 ounces of food AND water combined at any given moment.

But when I'm in the pool, I feel wonderful. I just wish I could feel wonderful playing on the floor with Harry, but I can't, and I feel terrible about it. However, the child is developing an appreciation for Movie Musicals of the 40s and 50s, so it's not all wasted time. And the way he mimics Donald O'Connor in Singin' in the Rain is just amazing. So cute. He wants a younger brother very, very badly.

In related news, does anyone want to make me a FANDOM MATERNITY LEAVE icon that I can put up here on LJ when I actually go on leave?

And in more loosely related news, sorry I haven't been commenting much recently - it's all tied to the Finishing The House And Trying To Transition Tasks To Those who can Take Them On... every time I come to LJ, I'm around 200 posts behind...

The icon could be a good idea.

Hey!

Well, I made one icon. You don't have to use it if you don't want to.

If you want to use it, but change something, just give me a buzz.

Muah. :D

Oh, and I hope you feel better soon. :) I made some more icons regarding "FANDOM MATERNITY LEAVE" mainly because I'm bored, and thought you could do with a choice.

Enjoy :D

I'm suspecting that you have more important things on your mind. LOL

Sorry to hear about the terrible sleeping patterns - *hugs gently* - but it is good news that you are hanging in there still. Could Harry spend more time in the pool playing with you instead of on the floor? BTW I think you should start your fandom maternity leave now, since you will be even more exhausted once Jumper arrives - get in early now, and put your feet up for at least an hour or two a day. Take care!

Yes the last month is hell! I had to sleep upright in a recliner the last month. And I was sooo swollen in my face and feet. Ugly. I had contractions off and on literally for a month before they had to induce me. She was a week overdue!

I send my best wishes to you that this final month goes by quickly and as painlessly as possible.

Hugs,
Elia

Huge hugs, Heidi... and love those icons. :) Mind if I borrow one? Like, sometime next year when Sprout finally gets here?

I know what's going on now, btw... Sprout and Jumper have plotted to make their due dates as close as possible. That can be the only explanation.

And Harry has EXCELLENT taste in movies!

I predict that you're going to be in labour on Sunday night so you don't have to watch that utterly horrible and EVIL eloise movie, which I plan to boycott!

Re: Icons - ask Courtney - I'm sure she'll be fine with it...

Hello, a rather late reply, but I just came across this and just wanted to say that you can take any icon that you want. :D

HummmmMMmmMmmmmm new life soon. :)

Don't worry, the fandom will still be here when all is said and done. Unless, of course, a war breaks out between the Dumbledore/Hagrid and Draco/Giant Squid ships and we blow up the internet from the intensity of 2000 flames posted at the exact same time.

Yeah, other than that, we'll be fine. No need to have LJ guilt.

Give Harry an extra hug for us. What a cutie!

love, lore
