Honest and True

I’m frustrated to be quite honest and true,
And there’s really nothing I can do.
See that right there is the main reason,
My body is sayin’ quit and it’s not teasin’ -
A noticeable difference since just last week,
Of some sympathy I guess I do seek :)
My belly is wonderful all big and round,
Baby is super active, has energy abound.
She’s figured out what is true night and day,
Her and I both sleep at night, I like it this way!
She’s growing and filling out and to see her, can’t wait!
Her beautiful ‘lil face and all will be great.
See, the pregnancy part could in no way be better,
It’s the increasingly swollen right leg that’s the getter.
That and to be frank, for I’m honest with you,
There’s another “area” quite troubling that bothers me too.
Of support hose and ‘straps I’m known daily to wear,
For a while there did their job and I had no care.
But now I can hardly walk without a big time waddle,
And walking fast? I’m in no way a model.
That right there is where my frustration sets in,
Of this battle with my body, there is no way to win.
And while I’m at it let me share a little more…
My dog’s personality these days is surely no bore.
She’s plain wild, puking at times and whining more than ever,
And today I’ve had two defiant boys who think they’re quite clever.
Time out’s they’ve “dismissed” themselves as they saw fit,
Now that right there is a HUGE no-no, a longer one they’ll get.
Asking them nicely the first time “don’t do that again,”
Then looking straight at me and repeating the sin?
I was at a loss for words by the time Daddy got home,
Of the day to recall it was making me wanna roam.
Out the front door, but where the beak would I go?
I waddle and walk a snails pace with all my pains down low.
So here I’ll sit and instead share my feelings with you,
And re-count the days, how many til I’m due? :)
