And, the waiting game begins...
The good news is that I was dilated to about 2cm at my last check-up on Friday, so there is progress going on which is ultra-exciting! As my doc put it, i'm 20% of the way there and I haven't even started labor.. love it. Hopefully by the next check up on Friday I will have progressed further. I am trying to stay positive and trying to talk baby Tayt into coming out this week.. momma is tired and not feeling so hott so the sooner the better. Poor little gal can't be comfy in there, she is still incredibly active and I have sore spots all over my belly from the spots she pushes most often--bruised from the inside out. Ugh. Baby making is serious, tough business. And, i still have to get her out of me... the anxiety of knowing how gnarly the whole labor and delivery process is and what i'm about to do again is keeping me up at night. Knowing is half the battle but now that i know it makes me nervous about it.. i know once i'm in the middle of it I won't be as anxious it's just the anticipation of doing it all over again that has got my nerves in a bundle.
In Trenton's world things are changing a little.. he is slightly confused by all the baby stuff we have brought down from storage. Theres another carseat in the car now-- but no baby, there is a bassinett in mommas room--but no baby. There is pink stuff invading his stuff everywhere. He points to my belly and says 'ready?!' he gives her love and kisses a lot too. I can't wait to see them interact and grow to love one another, this is going to just be too much fun.
Bags are packed, carseat is in, baby sheets are washed and ready, Shaun and I are mentally preparing ourselves each evening for what may come that night. I will keep ya'll posted on the progress!
