3 weeks to go


Ok, now I understand why women are always trying to rush things along at the end of a pregnancy. Up until Tuesday, I was good - he could have come early, late, whenever he felt like it. I was fine. Now....I'm ready to get things going. If I stay perfectly still, I feel pretty good. But if I even so much as wiggle, ouch - everything hurts. I'm hoping its just an overstretched muscle or two that will feel better any day now. According to the doctor, "it's going to get worse before it gets better" and "no baby this week!" What encouraging words - luckily, it was not my regular doctor! Although, the truth probably just hurts! Everything else is looking good, so I'm going to try to prop my feet up and be still for the weekend. I am so not good at that, but I'll give it a try. Dave could be in for a very long weekend!! I'll probably drive him crazy.

what a difference from the 24th til the 2nd!! i bet you feel it, too! you'll get better at not moving a lot after giving birth! but no worries, you're a strong mama and have a lot of helpers around.

Wow! You're really looking preggo now but at least it's near the end. You know that those sleepless/restless nights you're having now are to prepare you for what's coming, right? I'm with you about not being able to stay still - keep active as much as you can - it will take your mind off of everything and make the time go by faster. Any progress on names?
