Well, we went to see Dr. Maxey yesterday and everything still looks good. The abdomen situation is the same but there are lots of other good signs (plenty of amniotic fluid, lots of movement, etc.) so... It looks like we will be having the baby next week. We will go in on Monday and should pick a "birthday" that day. I do have an appt. this Thursday as well but that is just to make sure everything is still OK.
I had nearly convinced myself that we would have our little one this week. I am sure it was probably just the knowledge that we might that put me into a work frenzy trying to get everything done. It is nice to have a few more days especially since almost everything is done now but I think Mark and I were both kind of ready to get going this week. Now it seems like we have all the time in the world. Isn't that funny?
Anyway, everything is going well. I am still feeling good and getting around just fine. In fact, even though I am ready to meet my sweet little boy there is part of me that is sad that he is not going to be in my belly much longer. When your baby is moving around and only you can feel him it is easy to be selfish and want to keep that bond just for yourself.
I wish I had some other clever thing to talk about but I really don't. The baby is fairly all encompassing. In fact, I had a contractor come by the building yesterday to talk about Landscaping. After about the third time I responded, "Oh, I don't really care" he laughed and made the comment that he had picked the perfect time to come by and visit. (I am still very pretty particular about work stuff even with the impending birth... you just have to let the little things go sometimes you know?)
