I'm slowly becoming more impatient! And I feel awful for it! Poor baby girl isn't making me uncomfortable or miserable. I actually feel better these days that I have at other points of this pregnancy. I don't have any hip pain and can walk comfortably. Plus she still has 11 days until her due date! But the problem is, in my mind, I feel like she's late. Gavin was born at 38 weeks. And everyone - including my doctor - has told me how it's so much more common for second children to come earlier than the first. So, she should be here now, right??? She's obviously not ready.
I am making progress. I'm thankful for that. But I haven't been having as many contractions as I'd like to be. Yesterday, I was busy all day. Gavin and I went on a walk in the morning. We danced. We played race cars and puzzles and Candyland, all of which required me to be down on the floor and crawling around. I vacuumed. I swept the floors. I took Gav to Chickfila for lunch so I could order a Southwest Chicken Salad with spicy dressing. Nothing! But, I did go for another walk after dinner and got some good contractions going. Too bad they stopped after I went to bed...
I'm really enjoying my last days with just Gavin. But I really want to see our baby girl, too!
