Almost there

Only 4 days until my due date. It seems like the last 9 months just flew by. But on the other hand, the last 4 weeks have not.
I got a review from the doc today and she says that I am showing mild signs of progress. My cervix is softening but no dialation yet. From my understanding, that is not abnormal for first time mothers, neither is it abnormal for mothers in my family. So...I am trying the little tricks that the doc suggested in an attempt to 'help' nature along. We'll see if it works.
I would be oh-so-happy if this lasted only through the weekend.
We'll see.....

3 weeks to go

Can you believe that there are only 3 weeks left until my due date?

I am really feeling it these days. My hips and pelvic bones have really started aching these days and I am moving around quite slowly. After all the work we did this weekend I am actually feeling quite good.

Here is a belly closeup to prove to Debborah Jane that I really am pregnant and that it is impairing my movement these days. She doesn't seem to think that I have much of a belly.
