His plan is greater.

I am self absorbed at the moment but it is all I can do to cope! Getting so excited and anxious. I had a good day yesterday. The Lord's will was for baby to turn and be head down. This means alot and was such a relief. I also bought some new music while in town yesterday and didn't realize that it was a worship album with some of my fave songs. Uplifting.

Nine month ultrasound.

It's ultrasound day! Today may determine what will happen for delivery of this babe. The doctor thinks he might have turned head-down now. I think he might have turned back the other night. I swear last night he was sideways.... he has too much room and is a strong little guy. I can't wait to see what happens and to cross the finish line.

the month of nine.

I am getting so close! I am supposed to have over three weeks left but will I really go that far? I have had long false labor in the past. I dunno. The last few days have been full of painful braxton hicks and false labor at night. I dropped over a week ago and am now feeling the pinching feeling in my pelvis as I think the baby is engaging. The doctor thinks that this babe has now turned but an ultrasound on Monday will tell for sure. I just want to make it through another week so I am assured that all is in the right position and ready to go. I think that there should be a birth retreat place where you can go when you are close to being done so that you can relax and rest and then be there already when labor starts. Someone should get on that idea.
Last night at 3AM this strong little boy was moving around so hard, I felt like I was holding him in and was praying for another day. I swear he is going to kick his water free at any moment when he does that. I am so excited to meet him. I am also so excited to have the pressure off my body. I am cleaning through each room in my head and am now nesting. Eeek. I love just diving into pregnancy at the exciting beginning, even though the first part comes with sickness and the last with pressure; both a little torturous. It is always so worth it in the end. It is October! I hope I have a babe in my arms by the end of this month- sooner preferably :)
