Um, besides, who wants belly pictures of a nine-months-pregnant woman? That's so last week.
We are down to the last few days before our boy makes his highly anticipated arrival. I am alternately excited and freaked out. Excited for obvious reasons, freaked out because I am a bit nervous about the switch from one child to two. Also because I had such a long labor with Per and am not sure what to expect with this second boy. I am hoping very much that this labor and delivery will be shorter for lots of reasons.
I had a list of numbers that I was going to share. Things like exactly how many days are left til my due date, how large the fetal girth is (has any other pregnant woman actually measured her "waist" size?? DON'T do it, it will not be helpful), my current weight... But seriously, who really needs to know those things? And really, I was never going to share my weight with you. Let's be serious here. The important thing is that I am feeling really good (compared to how I could be feeling) and still usually have enough energy to do the things I need to do, and even some of the things I want to do. So I think things are pretty good, all things considered.
Here's hoping this babe comes soon!

Yeah, I measured my waist once when I was pregnant with Speed. I more than agree - don't do it! It doesn't help anything. Especially when it's your second and you're comparing your waist size to your friend who's having her first and is 10 weeks farther along than you but you're still 5 inches bigger....yeah, don't do it. :)
I'll be sending you good labor and delivery vibes - I hope your labor goes better this time!
I am so excited to see him!! I am glad you are feeling well. (considering.)
