5 weeks seems like an ETERNITY. I am so jealous of all those girls that love being pregnant and feel great, but I am going to be honest, I hate it. I just can't wait to get this little bundle of joy out of me. I love her to death, but I hate all the kicking and jabbing and aching and vomiting (TMI?)
And I hate going to the doctor. If you don't know this about me already, I NEVER go to the doctor for anything. I have never taken medicine/antibiotics of any kind. The only time I have been to the doctor was for a stitches, a broken arm (which I hid from my parents for 2 weeks cause I didn't want to go) and the "pre-wedding" exam my mom dragged me to. I probably would have gone the whole pregnancy without going to the doctor if my mom hadn't called to make the appointment and drove me down there :) Kind of pathetic I know, I just think that if I am going to die, I would rather just not know about it.
I especially hate going when it's an appointment like I had today that was a complete waste of time. I went and waited for my turn for 25 minutes. Finally they took me back to stand on the scale which is never accurate cause you have shoes and clothes on and I am always holding my phone and keys or purse. Then they check my blood pressure and listen to the heart for maybe 2 seconds if your lucky. That's it. Done. At least the baby is healthy, but I almost wish they would poke and prod more. If something was wrong would they really know from just my weight and blood pressure? I think not.
Lately, my feet have been hurting SO bad to walk on them. It feels like my bones are breaking. Ryan says it's cause I have been so skinny my whole life and now I am carrying all this extra weight so fast that my body isn't used to it. I hope he is right and they won't have to amputate.
Well, 5 more weeks to go! I am voting for 3 1/2 weeks though. I was a HUGE baby and so was Ryan so early might be better ;) Wish me luck!

You could have her next week so be prepared! I felt like that was perfect cuz Cohen was still 6 lb 6 oz, healthy, and I didn't have to get huge! But not everyone is that lucky so keep her in there to bake a while longer just in case!
I had no idea u hated the doctor so much. I thought u were weird for waiting so long to go when u were pregnant! haha. I was excited. And the blood pressure check is extremely important! High blood pressure is very dangerous for the baby!
Your babe better not come before I get there!!! I am jealous you only have 5 more weeks!
I hope you have it at just the right time! I was three weeks overdue with Rocco before they finally were nice and induced me, so don't worry if you go a little bit over...
I remember the aching feet! I seriously felt like I was gonna die every night because my feet were so swollen and painful. Ryan might be right about the weight thing, my feet got more wide while I was pregnant and I think it's cuz I weighed so much I squashed them outward... Half my skinny shoes don't fit anymore!!!
Well good Luck Brittany! It'll all be worth it... I'll be there in a couple weeks, maybe we'll get lucky and you'll have her while I'm there! I so want to see your Baby Boo!!!
You can do it Britt! Yeah, I'm with Cami on this one... no clue that you were so ANTI-DR. Just kidding, you're not anti- but just not a fan. Good luck with everything. What an exciting time!
