9 months

I'm in my 37th week now. Just had my check up and doc said baby is in position, everything looks great and I could go any time....so now we just wait. I've started having signs of early labor and he says "just let it happen" and we'll just wait and see. I know Nana wants to be here for Adelynn's arrival but Addy just may have other plans. And with the way I've been feeling the last few days, I'm all for getting this show on the road. I will say though, I'm starting to have a lot of overwhelming emotion (blame it on the hormones) and saddness that I won't have as much attention for my Mackenzie. I just keep telling myself I'm not an only child and I've made it just fine. As mothers, we place a huge amount of guilt on ourselves and try to live up to unrealistic expectations but what can we say, eh? I did have to laugh to myself though when I told the doctor about these sudden waves of emotion and his response was, "I can prescribe you medication for that." Typical male. I don't need meds, just reassurance that every mother goes through these feelings and that I'm normal. So here's my food for thought today and a picture of baby belly at 9 months....much to my dismay but everyone keeps asking for pictures. Have a good day everyone!

P.S. it's 70 degrees today. Can hardly believe it's March.

37 weeks
