Too tired to work....

I didn't want to turn this blog into a place where all I do is moan but today I am grumpy, so unfortunately it's going to have to be a winge.

I am 34 weeks and 2 days pregnant, I had approximately 4-5 hours sleep last night, up to the bathroom 3 times (regardless of how much I drink during the day or before bedtime!) and my hayfever is bad, so my throat, head, eyes and nose are all sore and running. Not a very glamourous mum-to-be today I'm afraid.

So, I'm sitting at my desk, trying so hard to find the motivation to actually do more work but its just not happening. I have enough work to get me through the day but then this afternoon I am training somebody else on what I do (well most of it) and she will be starting to do it for me. I haven't actually decided when I will make her do it from, but I'm thinking sooner the better, so at least if she struggles, she still has a couple of days with me in the office to ask for help. Not that I want to help her do my job for me naturally.

I'm trying to stay positive by thinking that this is as bad as its going to get before labour. Always feeling tired, miserable, peeing for England and just wanting to sleep is as bad as pregnancy gets before labour and at least with childbirth you get pain relief and have your baby at the end of it, which is more than I'm getting now!

5 days is all I have to do at work now, so why does it feel like a lifetime and why is the day insisting on passing so slowly? I guess looking at the time on my laptop every 5 minutes isn't really helping is it?

I think I may just go for a wander around the office and stretch my legs, that will waste a few minutes.......
