Today we are 38 weeks and 4 days, but who's counting? We had a Dr. appointment today to see if this baby is ready to meet the world, and you guessed it, he/she is comfortable and no where near where we hoped they'd be. So, maybe the baby has already anticipated the world it would be coming into, or it is just really comfortable. I think probably the latter. Although this has been a bit frustrating for Angie, I think it is a good sign. A sign that she truly is going to be an amazing mommy and that this child already knows it and won't let go.
So we continue to wait. We are so excited to meet this little nugget, and look forward to the day he/she makes their debut. We just hope it is closer to June 10th (the actual due date) than the 2 additional weeks the Dr. said we could have to wait, if in fact this child is not ready to come out. Either way, we aren't going anywhere. We'll wait right here, nesting. I do not recall ever organizing my sock drawer, but I am pretty sure I have done this 3 times in the past 9 months. Of course, we just want to be prepared.
Angie also asked the Dr. what we could do to speed up the process and he said sex and walking. So you know what we've been doing a lot of. Oh yeah, I think we could both use a new pair of walking shoes.
We have our next appointment on Monday so please send good juju our way that the process is at least moving along!! Up until now, we have been so busy getting everything ready that we hadn't had time to really think about what is coming. Now that we are pretty much ready (as anyone can ever be for a baby!), the time seems like it is dragging. Angie's mom comes on Monday and her dad comes on Wednesday, so we are looking forward to that and just hope that they don't spend most of their time here with no baby! That's about it for now, we will keep you posted after our next appointment. Again, good vibes are welcome!!
Really hoping that baby comes before the 19th when we are gone for a week! So excited for you guys and what a blessing!! Love you!
