and I am SCARED! Hold me....

Do your boobs hang low?

Ok, so I need HELP! It's no secret to anyone that I am currently breastfeeding Camden. But, I have a problem- Elsie* and Daisy* are sagging BAD. And, if I want to remain attractive and keep my breasties from falling out of the bottom and armholes of my shirts I need bra advice NOW! Where in the world can I get a good supportive nursing bra? I currently own 7 and I have purchased them from Motherhood, Target, and JC Penney's. They all stink and they do not work for me at all! Pretty please give me opinions, advice etc.

*formerly Bertha and Martha* They will go back to their previous names when the milk factory closes.

She's hit a brick wall...

**DISCLAIMER- I am about to rant. You've been warned.


Ok, so I have reached the I'm so over being pregnant stage. Is it ever gonna end? I can't believe I'm saying that... Just because feeling a baby move inside of you is an amazing yet indescribable feeling. There are other neat things too, but that is the absolute best. However, I am ready to get this baby boy out of my body. Which is bittersweet, because this is the absolute last time I will be pregnant. That being said- I am pretty sure I had a mini nervous breakdown yesterday. I got too hot and went too long without eating and I started having that scary feeling where you can't take a good deep breath. I guess alot of it started Saturday at about 4am when he decided he liked the head down position best, his feet got so tangled up in my rib cage that I was awakened out of a deep sleep. Now, he won't stay out of my ribs and it hurts! I feel like I can't breathe either. He is also squishing my stomach which is making my ulcer and nausea the worst it's ever been. I know I have said that alot, but really it's horrendous. I can't sleep- at least not normal hours. I feel incredibly guilty for not being more fun and involved with the kids so I am constantly apologizing and buying them goodies and lots of ice cream. Nothing fits. I look like crap- all the time. And, I am sooo tired of people acting shocked when I tell them I am pregnant. Apparently I am so morbidly obese I just look like a wide load/lard ass who went back to the buffet one too many times. And, I am scared to death of labor. I know he has to come out but I am terribly frightened. Then, when he comes out, will I remember what to do? Can I do this? Will I be able to manage the baby and my other kids? Will I have any time for me? How will we afford a baby? I guess I should also mention that other than starting the kid's bathroom I am nowhere near closer to getting any bedrooms done and time is ticking fast, which is a whole new can of worms. Really, what I am trying to say is I am losing my mind... I really need some serious encouragement. I need to be pumped up so I can make it emotionally and physically for the remainder of this pregnancy. And, I am not talking about a new purse or a pedicure either. C'mon- help a girl out... I need soothing calming words of encouragement.

P.S. I think Jon should read this. Maybe then he would understand. Ha- who am I kidding?

So, can you sew?

Now that I know what I'm having my wheels are a-spinnin' with ideas for bedding and stuff. More than likely, unless I win the lottery or my house sells for 10X the value this baby boy is gonna be bunking in mine and Jon's room. Which means I want our things and the baby's things to coordinate as much as possible. So, my idea was to have a crib set (bumper, dust ruffle, etc.) made that would go with our things. I am thinking some sort of patchwork, with cool boyish fabrics. My problem is: I can't sew. I checked etsy and all I could find was massively expensive, was already pre-made, or was made with fabrics of the seller's choosing. That is where my blog friends come in... can anyone that reads this blog sew? Would you be willing to help me? I can pay (within reason) and I would obviously buy all the materials and would be available to help in any way I can (cutting squares, etc). If this is something you or someone you know would be interested in doing or who already does this kind of stuff, shoot me a comment or an email. Thanks in advance!! And, if you know of a 6 bedroom home for under $10,000 let me know that as well....only kidding.
