So we had our OB appointment yesterday. Despite the statement at our last visit that it really could be "any day now," the more disturbing opinion of the baby taking "at least a week" was shared this week.
The baby is occupying the entirety of the belly. He is becoming more coordinated with his movements. I can feel little toes moving just in front of my ribs. I can see him keeping time to my heartbeat with his foot (he's got rhythm, probably not from his mother). He has hiccups a few times a day.
I'm finishing up work tomorrow and then am off until the baby comes. So far, no encouraging signs of labor or the like, except after a long day at work, when I'm walking I will usually get some Braxton-Hicks contractions.
I have reached the point in this pregnancy when I would love to be done being pregnant! I'm always voting for today. Ask me tomorrow, my vote will be "today." Seth is ready too. He's said several times this week that he would really just rather be holding the baby in his arms.
Stay tuned!
