This is it

Today is the day!  We leave for the hospital in one hour.  I slept just fine last night and am so prepared this morning that I have time to blog!  It doesn't seem real, but I'm sure it will as soon as we step through the hospital doors.  Everyone I've talked to has said that c-sections are the way to go, but I'm still really nervous.  I could feel my body going into anxiety attack mode while I was getting my amnio yesterday.  Another minute and I'm sure my hands would've started getting numb,  I would feel faint and have to vomit.  Anxiety is a beautiful thing.  As much as I try to stay calm, my body has a mind of its own.  Or is it that my mind has a mind of its own?  Anyway, I'm hoping that I'll be so excited about meeting Sunny that I won't care about what's going on to my body.  

My thoughts this morning?  I just can't wrap my head around the fact that I'm going to be a mom in a few hours.  It just doesn't seem possible.  And I'm so freaking thirsty.  Never mind that I was told not to eat anything past midnight last night, I was also told not to drink anything and it's making me a little crazy.  Actually makes me look forward to the I.V. and catheter.  Oh, there - you see?  I'm already feeling better about the needles.  Wait, no.  Still nervous.  

Okay, I guess I should go get ready.  Next time I blog, I'll have a daughter!
