It could be any of those before I meet my boy. His due date is in 9 days, but at this point with Jill she was already in my arms. He's already baked 8 days longer then his sister. I know every pregnancy is
different but I just can't wait any longer...I want to meet my boy!
At my doctors appointment on Thursday I was 1-2 CM and at zero station and the doctor said he
didn’t expect to see me next week, and that sounded perfect to me too, I’d rather not see him either! I’m feeling so anxious and ready. I’
ve been cleaning floors every night, I have all the laundry done, I’m done with BR work and I have weeks 1-4 of lesson plans done for my students. Now I just need my boy in my arms. I woke up Thursday morning at 4:30 feeling what I thought were real contractions. I’
ve had
BH Contractions for a while now, but these were different. Major cramps very low and into my upper thighs. They stopped me in my tracks. There were three good ones about 6-8 min apart and then they became sporadic. I went on to school where they continued but not getting any stronger. Friday was the same. I woke up sporadically through the night and they
continued that way all day, but that was it.
They didn't get stronger or closer together. This weekend they pretty much stopped. I've tried eating really spicy things, mac-n-cheese with A1 sauce, we at the
Mexican restaurant I ate at the night before Jill was born (even had the same thing) and nothing. I've been walking, I even climbed about a
million (
OK it felt that way) stairs at the water park today to take Jill on a tube slide. Getting my butt into the back of a double tube must have been a funny sight, it was pretty challenging but I did it and we had a blast!
So I guess I will have another week with my students. The plan is for Friday to be my last day since my due date will be the following Tuesday and school is closed Monday for labor day. At this point I think I may still be pregnant that week too. It feels like he'll never get here. I now I probably sound silly since I still have over a week until I'm due. I'm just so anxious. Since Jill came before I expected her too I never had the "when is the baby coming" feelings, she
surprised me (as she still does daily!), so I guess that's why this feels weird to me.
I just want my boy!!!!
Chase,
I can’t wait to meet you. You are so close yet you seem so far. As I rest my hands on you I feel you move, but I want to feel you moving out here. Your sister can’t wait to meet you too. I think she may be more anxious then daddy and I. I can’t wait to see what you look like, hear your cry and see those cute little toes. The closer it gets to the end the longer it seems like it’s taking. You are the missing part to our family puzzle and we need you to come join us and make us complete. The Grandfathers (or
farters to your sis), Grammy, Mimi and Pop Pop are so excited to meet you too. Your Aunt Rachele and all your uncles are waiting too (there are so many of them you'll have an endless supply!) We love you big boy, please come meet your momma! I know I've asked you to wait September for the last nine months (because I love
sapphires) but if your ready come on!!! August is a good month too, I'm sure that birthstone is pretty!
