Any time I have time to stop and have a thought to myself, it's either something along the lines of "Could somebody just get this kid out now?" or "Hey, I could suck it up and stay pregnant a little longer!". So, you can understand the bit about seeming manic depressive.
I'm uncomfortable enough now that I can't take naps or enjoy sleep anymore. That's right--I'm complaining! The inability to sleep (my second love in life, close behind eating) has sent me straight into crabby-pregnant-lady-ville. And I am finally realizing how easy I had it during my last month of pregnancy with Audrey. The Willian needs sleep. You should feel sorry for my husband.
Now, on the flip side of that coin? I love that kid--The one who has been trying to fall asleep by herself in the next room for the past half hour because she won't snuggle with me anymore. She's squirming around and occasionally talks to her monkey or calls out my name. I can't imagine us having a better relationship than we do now and it's a little scary to think about trying to bring another rugrat into our awesome duo. So, maybe a little more time would be nice...
I've got another doctor's appointment today which will most likely yield no new news...That's how I roll. I'll keep you posted on when this baby is coming. Anyone with an extra dose of patience? I'd be much obliged if you could pass it along!
...and, yes, I do realize that I ranked sleeping and eating before both my husband and daughter. They've got to have something to tell their therapists.

Question:
You said Audrey calls you by name...so does that mean she calls you Gillian, or have you legally changed your name to "Mom" ;-)
That reminds me of a skit I saw one time of a bunch of women walking around in a kid saying "Mom" and all the women turning around...hehe
Hope you get some sleep soon!
