You look beautiful, Lor. And -- really -- isn't that better than feeling good? OK, perhaps not.
I'm sorry to tell you that the Little Gremlin will be equally painful (in a different, ear-piercing, sleep-deprived way) once she's out and about. However, you also get to kiss her and breathe in all that yummy baby smell (advice: Don't do this with diapers) and gaze at her adoringly for hours on end. And suddenly you understand why all the pain (in utero and out) is worth it!
I couldn't agree with Kerri more! Every ounce of discomfort is worth every second of their being. At four months, I still could just sit and stare at Russell and smell his brand new baby skin (sans breastfed blowouts by the buttocks) and oh his soft hair and just hold him forever or until he screams in my ear, his undying love resonating throughout my body, bouncing off my bones and shaking the most intricate fibers of what is left of my brain.... What was I saying?

Good luck in the home stretch. Stay strong!

The first thing I'm going to tell Lauren (when she's able to understand) is that you called her a gremlin...
Not long now so hold on...
Much love.
