Pregnant Problems: 9th Month And Waiting

I've been busy the past few days making soaps like crazy! I plan to produce lots of handmade soaps before giving birth, just in time for me to join bazaars after 1 month of waiting for the soaps to be cured.

So, this is me at 9 months. I noticed myself getting bigger and bigger, and the waiting is really making me anxious. Clothes hardly fit and I have limited clothes to wear now. My skin is extra dry and some hidden parts of my body got dark (haha! is that too much information?), all mommies and pregnant women out there can probably relate. I'm not sure if this is also because of the pregnancy, but I also noticed my hair getting intensely dry. So instead of leaving my hair down like I always do, I just tie them now with a ponytail every day. I try not to, but lately I'm so lazy fixing myself and find myself looking wasted when I check the mirror. lol!
Right now, I really feel uncomfortable with everything that I do. I can't move freely because my tummy always gets in the way. I am already starting to feel the contractions and it's keeping me awake at night. My sleeping schedule is so bad because I'm awake at night and asleep in the morning. I am really trying my best to be productive and make myself busy every day but that's just really impossible with my condition now. Aaaaah!! I really want to get over this and finally see our baby girl, but at the same time I am also feeling somewhat mixed over everything. I definitely want to get over the hardships of pregnancy but to be honest, I am actually scared with the idea of giving birth. Since this is my first baby, I have no idea what to expect during labor and the whole process of birth giving. I purposely stayed away from videos and too much information from the internet on how giving birth looks like, so everything will really just be a surprise to me. But I also know for a fact that this is just the first part of all the hardships of being a mother, so bring it on!
Despite all the hassles of feeling uncomfortable and waiting anxiously, I am doing the best I can to finish everything I can before giving birth. I am making it a point that all errands are finished before my baby girl arrives. I am already preparing myself since everyone has been telling me that I will definitely be busy with the baby and nothing else after I give birth.
For all experienced mommies out there, let me know what else to expect after giving birth. Like us on facebook and feel free to tell me things on the comment section.
