Im not so sure that's the case when you're 38 weeks pregnant and counting! But the sad truth is that I have nothing new to share lately. At my doctor's appointment on Monday I was still dilated to 3cm. The tummy is still growing so I guess that means baby is still growing-that's a good thing I supppose. 3cm is still more than I was at this point with Luke, I guess it's just disappointing to not have anything new to tell. On the other hand, it looks like I will probably make it to October which will be nice because we have so many September birthdays in our family. Also, Im feeling a lot better now than I was 2 weeks ago. Not having the aches and pains as much and Im sleeping a lot better.
I have been getting out all the baby equipment this week. I set up the swing, put the bouncy seat together and set up the pac-n-play with the bassinet in our room. I've got most of the washing done and the infant carseat all strapped in the car. Meanwhile, Luke and I talk about baby Cole a lot. I showed him pictures of himself when he was a newborn and told him that Cole will look a lot like that since they are brothers. We talked about how tiny he will be and that he will sleep and cry a lot at first. He seems pretty excited about it all right now. The other day at lunch, Luke pulled his shirt up and started putting chips on his tummy saying "Here you go. You want some chips?" I asked him what he was doing and he said "I'm feeding baby Cole some chips." I said "Baby Cole is in my tummy, that's why it's so big!" To which Luke replied " No, he's MY brother!" We are big in the 'Mine' phase right now!
Hopefully, the next post will be a little more exciting. For now, we'll just keep waiting patiently. I am enjoying my last few days of (mostly) uninterrupted sleep.
