39 Weeks

It’s hard to believe I am 39 weeks pregnant! We are very eager to meet our son. Any guesses as to when he will arrive? I was nearly two weeks late and Jeff was three weeks early, so I’m hoping maybe that averages out to an on-time arrival. I haven’t felt any Braxton-Hicks contractions yet, but it is possible to have them and not feel them, so I’m hoping that is the case. I’m still getting poked in the ribs and head-butted in the bladder, but am thankful to overall feel very good. The weather here has continued to be crazy, with several inches of snow falling last week, and some snow/rain mix on Sunday. Jeff and I may have tempted fate, because when we had all that snow in December, we were talking about how great it was that we wouldn’t have to worry about any of that when our baby’s due date rolled around. Thankfully the forecast is pretty much calling for rain for the next week, so hopefully the temperature will stay above freezing. I am most definitely ready for Spring!

I am so ready to see our boy! I can’t wait to have him here for us to hold, it is really amazing that there is actually a person inside me that we will soon be meeting. Thank you all for sharing in our excitement and our love for him!
