Date Night

Last night Jono and I had a date night at the temple. We realized it would probably be a while before we got back once baby comes so we wanted to squeeze in one last trip.

I ended up sitting next to another pregnant girl. After I told her I was 38.5 weeks, she told me I was brave for coming. Fortunately and unfortunately I had been to the doctor earlier in the day and knew I probably wasn't going to have a baby that night.

My last day of work was Friday. It's nice to be on maternity leave and be able to relax and get some stuff done around the apartment. I think my body knew I was done too because its starting to ache more and if I stay in one position for too long I get uncomfortable.

I only have 11 days left until my due date. I remember when I had 11 weeks left! Time is flying by and I'm trying to prepare myself mentally and emotionally for when baby comes.

I can already start to see baby's personality. He is super active all day long, which I love but it also hurts after a while. He gets the hiccups at least once, usually twice a day. And he definitely has a mind of his own. If there is a foot poking me in the side, I'll poke it back in, to which his response is to kick back even harder or kick me somewhere else.

I still haven't had any contractions...at all. I'm trying to think positive labor thoughts, but for now it's a waiting game. So come on out baby, we're ready for you!!
