My last doctor's visit was little bit of a surprise to me. My doctor
told me I might deliver the baby any time now. I was told that I was 2
cm dilated and my cervix is effaced. I panicked for a moment because I
was only 37 weeks and I have been procrastinating these past few days,
but I must admit that some excitement crept a little bit on me. I came
home telling DH to get that car seat out and installed in the
car...although some part of me still thinks this baby is going to take
its sweet time to come out to just test my patience for a while.
Here's my recent belly picture:

This weekend, we finally got the
nursery in place. We have decided we were going for a All About
Science theme. I ordered the crib bedding set in Robots and used a
Breathable baby bumper to cover the gaps on the rails.

Do you see the mobile set? I made those
myself. I used Legos and glued them together so it doesn't get undone
when the kid starts pulling at it later. Of course, the mobile stand
was from my DD's old ladybug mobile set that I kept.
The wall art was from my DH and yours truly. My MIL
had an old drawing that my DH made when he was 5 years old. She had it framed and
gave it to him his as a graduation present when he received his PhD. It says "Thing: I want to
be a Scientist" I thought it was cute.
Then there's that other painting of mine when I was
bored one day. I am hoping, USA will once again be the first person for
this mission to Mars!

I also started organizing the closet. I have washed all the newborn- 3 months clothes so far.
Then of course, the changing table and all those diapers that I will be using...

Madison also took the time to sort out some of her books from her bookshelf and gave up the baby books she had and arranged this for the baby herself.
And off we go! We are all set...everything is here, but the Baby! I swear, if he does not come out in two weeks...I will serve him an eviction notice!

That's it for now...hopefully, I have the baby on my next post!:P Have a great week everyone!
Oh my, this little scientist is really going to be a big one.
ReplyDeleteMe too, I am so ready to give birth anytime soon but it looks like my baby is very comfortable inside still, I am 39 weeks and 6 days..I really can't wait...it will be funny if we will have the same due date.
Looks like you are going before me!wahh...so excited for you. Post pics as soon as you can. Praying for the safe delivery of your little bundle!:)
DeleteNo news yet? I really thought your baby's out by this time now when you said you were already 2cm dilated. But looks like he's so comfortable inside and would rather wait for a few more days.
ReplyDeleteVery excited for you and the that cot looks so comfy.
Best of luck on the delivery!
Unfortunately...I am still very pregnant. I hope I won't be like those women who are dilated for weeks without any progression. I can't even bring myself to walk around to help speed it up because of my back and leg pains. Oh well, I am ok waiting a couple more weeks. Still waiting for mother in law to get here. Maybe baby is doing the same thing!:)
