5 September 2012 - Still not Ready to Come Out

               I have been visiting the doctor every week now. Had an appointment on 21 August and had another on 28 August. I was checked for signs of infection last week and there wasn't any. Your heartbeat was 144 per minute. Your mom weighs 134 pounds now!! So I have put on 30 pounds altogether in these 8 and half months! Your heartbeat on 28 August was 155 per minute and doctor said you might stay inside for some more days. I was disappointed to hear that, because I had been waiting to see you since more than 250 days!
               You kicks have been really stronger now. Though you are now upside down and not turning around, you still twist and kick in that little space you have. You make your grand father laugh when I tell him how you get irritated if I keep a book on you. I feel like asking you, what is your problem if I touch my stomach! You have been thinking that it is your private property and have been kicking me as per your wish! Hello!!!! It's my stomach! And it hurts! 
               I had another appointment today, went to the hospital hoping to hear that you might come out soon. I was neither disappointed nor happy, because doctor said you might come out any day from now and if you still plan to stay inside for some more days, I will have my next appointment next week! Your heart beat was 148 per minute. Your maternal uncle thinks that you are very lazy and you are happily sleeping inside. My patience level is going way too bad. Your dad and granny are getting to know my mood swings a lot. Even my students had never tested my patience so much!
               I have been getting dreams that you are finally in my arms and in the mornings when I wake up, I realize that you are still inside. Every part of my body aches and pains and there are many sub-categories in stomach ache too. But still I haven't experienced "the" labour pain, which I am desperately waiting for!
