Patience & Pregnancy

Why is it that the longer a woman is pregnant, the shorter her patience gets? I'll tell you why - it's because the baby is taking up all available space (and then some) & the patience gets pushed out her ears. I feel guilty about my lack of patience with the boys lately. I will be good for a few days, then we all have a rough day & it is gone until I can get some "Mama time." Luckily, for me & the boys, we are going over to my parents house tonight & I am going to wrap gifts for them while they entertain the boys. Also, the boys took a nap today with little fuss - always a very good thing.
I had my 35-week check on Tuesday. I hadn't gained any measurable weight, but I am 1 cm dilated. I have been having a lot of cramping & contractions in the past few days, but I think that we are safe until January. I just love this last stage of pregnancy - not.
