a waiting game...

okay so according to my pregnancy ticker, i've got 6 days to go. i must say i don't like all this waiting around. i hate not knowing when something is going to happen and not being able to plan for something. it could be tomorrow; it could be next week; heck, it could even be two weeks from now (oh please don't let it be the last one)! had an appointment with my OB today and he didn't really say much. just said something along the lines of "looks like you're going to go the distance this time!". thanks. anyway, i'm scheduled for an ultrasound next week should the baby still not arrive just to check on fluid levels and get a better idea of what's going on. i'm reeeeeeally hoping that the baby will come in the next few days...or at least by next monday/tuesday. but then again, the baby will come when the baby is ready, so i guess i have to be patient. i'm not so good with being patient. i know that things will probably be more difficult once we have a newborn in the house again, but i'm just eager to have labour over with and have the baby here already. i'm trying really hard not to be anxious about it, but since i really don't know what it's like to go into labour, i'm just naturally a bit nervous. last time nathan surprised us all by coming so early that i didn't have a chance to get into impatient mode. everything was decided for us so all we could do was go along for the ride. this time seems to be quite the opposite. baby, could you just hurry up and get here already? your momma would be ever so grateful.

on the bright side, ken and i have finally come to a decision on names! we were debating about the boy's name for the longest time, but we've finally come up with something that we're both happy with. and we've had the girl's name for a while. alright, so any bets as to when baby mo 2.0 will make his or her grand appearance? so far i have one friend guessing that it'll be friday or saturday.

Aw, I'm sure you're ready to be done with pregnancy but I hope you can enjoy your last moments as a family of 3 at least a little bit! Having a controlling personality myself I feel your pain. :o)

Hmm... okay I'm going to guess next Thursday. Sorry! I picked that because I was 1 day past my due date with Kian. :o)
