Even if you feel guilty for resting and not working, I hope you're thankful that you get to do so! Also, even though everybody tells you to get your rest now because you won't later... it's really true! At least for a month or so you'll be up constantly for feedings. It gets pretty exhausting, but with some help you can find time for naps! :)
How are you feeling about D(elivery) Day? After having gone through it, I realized I didn't need to be anywhere near as nervous as I was. If you're not opposed to an epidural, they make the whole process very endurable! After getting my epi(which I should have done earlier!), the only part that hurt much was the last three or so sets of pushes. Not too bad! :)
Feel free to ask any q's if you want! You want my list of must have medicine cabinet stuff? ...Ice packs! (and thin-long pads), dulcolax (get a softener, NOT a laxitive!) :), dermoplast (pain spray-what a great concept!), witch hazel pads/prep. H if you get hemmerhoids, ibuprofen.
