This is today--April 21st.
In between the snow flurries, Trevor got this shot of my extra large middle
and stripes tightly stretched.
Last night I spent most of the night
on the couch with low-back contractions...
it was the perfect motivation to get our bags packed,
order the car seat,
and get some things in order.
Everything stopped early this morning and we are looking forward (hoping for!) a few days of low key before the real deal.
THE REAL DEAL.
Can you believe we are at the end of this pregnancy?
Having three other children,
other responsibilities,
activities, & pursuits...
it has been
easy to just go with the flow
and not notice how the days are flying.
I have been feeling mostly well
my evenings are better
(thankyouverymuch, prilosec)
and my swelling goes up and down
(and up again)...
I do have a miserable rash on my feet/calves/legs
that I'm hopeful goes away quickly post partum.
My doula is on call,
my doctor is my VBA2C cheerleader,
and we had our hospital tour this afternoon!
Let's just relax for a bit and then the show can really start...
Any guesses on birth date?
(I've birthed at 39 weeks, 41 weeks, & 40 weeks)
Her "guess date" is the 29th.

39 weeks, oh my goodness!!
My guess is that she'll be born on her due date! I've never had one born as predicted but I think it's so fun when a baby is.
I can't wait to see her and hear all about another wonderful birth experience. I am also anxiously awaiting her name reveal.
You are so dang awesome!!
Wishing you all the best!! Guessing this Saturday (25th)
