Yeah for February!!!

I made it to February!!! I am so proud of myself. I really wanted to make it to February, now I can finally relax, sit back, and wait for this little miracle of mine. I am getting to the point of being obscenely pregnant where even strangers are concerned for my safety. I feel like a ticking time bomb, at any point I could explode. I was having anxiety about the hospital and the birth but now I want him out. I want my body back and a baby in my arms. We just have to wait.

I went to the doctors on Wednesday and she confirmed the any day theory. I am two centimeters dilated and almost completely effaced. She doesn't think that I will make it to my next appointment on the 6th. But I have heard of people walking around for weeks dilated. So, again it's a waiting game. I also had another sonogram done to give us a final check of the baby, placenta, and umbilical cord placement. Everything looks great. However, unfortunately for me, they gave a weight estimate. 7lbs 10oz. He is a little heifer boy!! I can't believe someone that is almost 8lbs is living inside me. That will be the quickest weight loss program ever! Will keep everyone posted. Tick Tock, Tick Tock...

And as the clock tic..toc's..I can't help but look back at this journey and see all the love that Bean has already brought into the world. Momma Bean has grown both in size and wisdom and grace, and we have all been blessed by a circle of love and good wishes. His innocense and purity will lift us all and fill our hearts to overflowing. So Bean my dear what are you waiting for? Can't wait to plant grandma kisses all over your sweet angelic face.
