We've made it 34 weeks! Only 6 to go...if our little bugger feels like going full term. I'm hoping he does, because Blue October is coming to town and will be performing three days before my due date, and I won't leave him that early if he's already popped out...so I only get to go if he hangs in there! :) As I'm sure you can already tell, we're having a boy...a Mr. Timothy James!
I'm absolutely huge! But it's all baby, my little pumpkin seed! I'm my normal size with this round, sometimes, somewhat lop-sided belly. I love it, and love watching my stomach as Timmy moves around and spazz's out. It's so amazing, knowing that I have this little life inside me, and seeing him practicing his reflexes and things...it's so neat!
At our last doctor's appointment, we learned that he's head down...and I do feel like he's dropping ever so slightly, which is another great sign that he's going to follow all the protocol for a complication-free delivery. He must be a genius...especially considering I feel so very spacey these days. Everything is ready for his arrival...crib is all put together and the bedding is in place...all the newborn clothes has been washed and put away...we've gotten strollers and car seats and bases for both of our cars. I just need to get a birth plan figured out and a go-bag packed, and we're good to go! I'm very excited about labor...perhaps I'm a little deluded about the whole concept, I'm eager and maybe a little naive. But honestly, I can't wait for the whole experience...and I plan on having a natural birth, so we're crossing our fingers that Timmer's doesn't have an abnormally large head! Ha. Oh I can't wait to meet him!! And for Drew to meet his son...wow!! It's gonna be such a happy, maybe somewhat painful, day! :)
