this is literally me, right now. i've officially succumbed to nothing but oversized t-shirts with the collars cut out {yuck, tight collars make me claustrophobic} and i've moved from leggings to loose yoga capris. ooooh, sweet comfort.
i'm thirty-nine weeks pregnant today.
labor consumes my brain constantly. i have perma-pre-game butterflies & approximately 14,584 different labor scenarios playing out in my mind. last night sam was trying to go to bed & eventually kicked me out of the room because he said he could no longer play hypothetical with me... that at least one of us needed to be rested. so i went out & ate froot loops. and here we are.
it's so funny how meeting this baby boy feels SO close {any second now!!} and yet so far away {a whole WEEK??}. the suspense is killing me. i think we maaaaayyybe have finally agreed on a name which makes me super excited to meet this little boy because wow, he has a name! he's a real boy. i've packed my hospital bag & i literally can't think of anything more to do around the house to get things ready. i'm well nested.
and now? i'm just anxious, nervous & excited. constant butterflies & scenarios playing out. trying to enjoy every second that i'm not agonizing in labor/contraction pain but unbelievably anxious & excited to hold this new little boy & see his little face. and to see if all this heartburn really does mean he has a full head of hair.
and one last thing? if you had an awesome labor, where things went smoothly... you made it to the hospital with plenty of time, your older kid(s) was well taken care of & happy, your epidural worked beautifully & you pushed happily along for less than an hour? leave your story in the comments, mmk? i could use a pep talk.
if your labor was the opposite of that? let's talk about it in a week or two, yes? for now, i need good vibes.
{as soon as the little man is born i will be posting an announcement on my blog facebook page. i'm sure it will be announced there a good day or two before i manage to get it on the blog, so if you're curious hit up & "like" the page if you don't already!}
