Turning Inward.... or Just Tired

The last few days I've been really pooped! At first I thought it was stress-out recovery. Then I thought it was the humidity. But today I don't have either excuse. AND I had a really good and longer-than-usual sleep last night. It just seems weird that I'd hit 37 weeks and WHAMMO all of the sudden feel different.

But I do. And it's mental too. I'm starting to feel kind of distracted and thoughtful. That isn't much of a surprise. But it does interfere a bit with daily activities.

I remember when I was pregnant with Eva I started my mat leave two weeks before her due date (on which I went into labour). But I felt ready to start a week before that.

I'm still chipping away at my preparations. I just remembered to wash the Boppie nursing pillow (gold, people, nursing pillows are pure gold). I put some garbage bags, a zip lock bag (for the placenta), and a receiving blanket in with my birth day supply stash. And I pulled out the flannel I had bought for making cloth wipes. Haven't done anything with it yet, but it's out and ready to be cut and sewn. Obviously not the end of the world if they're not done before baby gets here, but I can't see myself having much chance to sew after baby arrives. Speaking of that, I should get after that crochet diaper cover I'm planning to make...
