Man. I am 40w4d pregnant. I have never been this pregnant before! I am surprised by how much I love it!
I have been having what feels like prodromal labor for the last couple of weeks. The contractions are very misleading. I begin to think I am in labor, and then they stop haha. It's funny! I do try and ignore them, but they get painful to where I have to stop and breath and focus!
Today they started in my back too! They are more intense today, and yesterday, so maybe that's a good sign! Alex still hopes it happens today or tomorrow so he wont have to go to work Tuesday haha. I say baby will come when he/she's ready!
We have everything ready, I have been cleaning and walking everyday! I just am so excited! I really am! This baby is teaching me patience, that's for sure. Sometimes I feel frustrated, but then I remember that it's normal and I am still not overdue!
I just can't wait to meet her/him! I am so curious to see what he/she looks like. :) Soon though, I know. It's already been over 40 weeks, what's a few more days?
Becka seems very excited too, it's great! She keeps telling the baby to come out. She even was crying because she thought I went in the bathroom the other day to have the baby and she didn't want to miss it. I came out and she's crying about the baby leaving my belly and she wasn't there lol! It was adorable!
