Last month!

Today marks the beginning of the last month of my pregnancy! I have exactly 1 month left until my due date, which is such a good feeling. Even though I know I have at least several weeks before the baby arrives, it feels like it is getting closer. I suppose that's good and bad. I'm enjoying still being a mom of 1, but I'm excited to meet this baby and see what she is like. I think I feel equal excitement and nervousness. Having a baby changes your life and I feel it will be the same with the second baby. It marks a new beginning and there's no turning back at that point (not that there is now). At least now though, I can still enjoy my life as it is, as I anticipate the changes to come.
I many ways, I have come to realize that a second pregnancy is easier, although harder. It's harder, because I have more discomforts and pains, and don't get to relax as much. On the other hand, staying busy has helped distract me from it, so I'm not focusing on them. It doesn't seem as bad, in that aspect. It also has helped the time pass quicker, and I can't say at any point that this pregnancy has dragged by. I'm actually torn between wanting to have this baby now and being happy that I still have a few weeks left.
I think my GBS test is at my appointment on Monday and I'm extremely nervous to find out the results. I pray I don't have it again. Luckily, I can avoid antibiotics this time, but the other option they push is something called Hybicleanse. It doesn't sound any better, I believe it's a vaginal rinse you do every 6 hours while in labor. The last thing I want while in labor is put something up there, while there's something coming out! Overall, yes, it's a better option, but it still sounds as though it will be uncomfortable. I'm pretty sure they won't do an exam, although it's a little tempting to find out if I've made any progress yet, I know it doesn't mean anything, and that exams can only introduce bacteria and infection. Overall, it's not worth satisfying my curiosity.
Well, I'm getting tired and my mind is going blank, so that's it for now.
