Due Date Day!


So, I decided to teach my little guy one of his first lessons of life today. It went something like this:

"Hello little one! I am your mommy. That means you should listen to the things I say. I'm going to tell you something very important. Today is your due date. Do you know what that means?? It means that today is the day that you come into this world and that mommy and daddy get to hold you in their arms. Do you understand little guy? Mommy and Daddy want to meet you. Grandma Curtis is here waiting for you too. It's ok. I know it'll be a little bit scary and I know how claustrophobic you are, but it will be over soon and mommy and daddy can kiss everything better!! Just wanted you to know what 'due date' means. If you come today, in 1 year we will give you birthday cake! And lots of presents!!! Doesn't that sound fun? I think so. You are getting so big and strong! I'm proud of you but it's hard on mommy to be comfortable. I know you get uncomfortable sometimes too. Well, I love you and can't wait to meet you!!"

Baby Update:

Well, I thought I should update a little since my last post. I am currently 39 weeks, 2 days. Not dialated really, maybe like 1/4 cm. haha The doctor said though that if I'm still "great with child" by next week (my due date) then we will pick a day to get induced. So by the 16th we will have a baby!! :) It's good to at least know that he'll come someday. I have almost a constant headache, but they aren't worried because my blood pressure is perfect and there is no protein in my urine. Those would mean toximia. NOT GOOD. Just playing the waiting game for a few more weeks. Hope I don't have to get induced. Everyone that I know that has been induced had to have an emergency c-section. Kinda scary, but we will see. :)
