Well, Baby's due date has come and gone (May 29). So we are waiting...a little impatiently! We have been trying everything we have heard of to induce labor naturally, but this kid is already stubborn! I think he/she is trying to tell us that WE are no longer in control of things!
I was very elated that the baby let me graduate on May 13 with no problems whatsoever...except maybe having to pee badly during the entire ceremony! So, I finished up school and received my Doctor of Physical Therapy degree at 38 weeks pregnant.
For the last two weeks, I have learned what the word patience really means. I have never been SO anxious for anything in my life! We have everything ready for the baby...but...no baby...yet! I am trying to take everybody's advice and just ENJOY my quiet days and leisurely naps while I still can!
Because they say only 5% of babies are born on their actual due dates, David and I decided it was worth the "risk" to drive to Topeka yesterday for a "last date" together. We had lunch and saw a movie, got some ice cream, and took back roads ALL the way home in the truck to try to bounce the baby out! It didn't work...but it was still a fun day together!
I would really like to be out on the lake this Memorial Day, but since I can't be, I thought I would put up some pictures of my 2nd-half-of-pregnancy belly and the nursery!
