Repeat

This is how I feel about this pregnancy. This is week 22, take two, part B, do over, been there done that. It’s hard because I am not in new territory yet. I am still in ‘take 2’ mode with this pregnancy. Where I can still compare this baby and Max. Its driving me crazy. I am turning into the world’s biggest worry wart while I wait for Oct 28th. Officially the gestational age we gave birth to Max. I want it to be Oct 29th already. I have destroyed my used-to-be-perfect-and-manicured nails in a continuous fit of nerves which is really annoying but I cannot seem to stop. I have gotten to the ‘compare everything’ mode and worry every time this little man is asleep that he died and/or isn’t growing anymore and will die. And I have another month of this at least. History is repeating itself in other ways that my very helpful brain keeps pointing out… like hubby’s parents are coming down the first week in October to help hubs paint the nursery and they were scheduled to come help us paint LAST time the weekend after everything happened, but then everything happened. So now I keep thinking they are a jinx. Which is terrible. He remedy to all my mind-craziness? Distractions. This week (tomorrow) I am heading up to go stay with my sister in law, her hubs, and their new baby for a week. Technically it’s for her benefit because she’s not having an easy time with postpartum, but it’s working out well for me too because this week will fly by. I’ll miss the hubs for sure and it will be strange being away from him. But I will love hanging out with the SIL I’m closest too AND a new baby?! WIN! Then next week hubby’s parents come on Friday-Sun to help paint and hang out, and then Wednesday my mom flies in for a month! I just need to focus on that fun stuff and give my nails a rest!!!!
