Troisieme Bebe

A little update on the soon to be newborn in our home:  21 days to go, 1 cm, –2, 80% effaced…this means nothing of course.  I have felt a lot of progress in the last week.  Some days the baby sits really low on my pelvis creating a lot of pressure and other times she’s back higher.  I keep waking up at 5:00 a.m., which is really inconvenient, because I am still tired, but it’s not enough time to get much more sleep if any.  When Kristiana was born I kept waking up at 4:00 a.m. with a couple of contractions, and that is when labor started when it finally happened.  So perhaps this pregnancy will follow suit.  My predictions are that this baby will be born on a Tuesday, possibly in two weeks.  I keep hoping to have a yard sale.  So the baby cannot come before then even though I am eager to be done.  I am really trying not to be too eager, because I know I just have to wait it out at this point.  That’s the full update.
