Only 27 Days

Well, everyone is looking at my belly right now and thinking, "You just CAN'T get any bigger!" Well, yes I probably can and I probably will! This little one is filling up any and all space in my belly and things are getting seriously crowded. I think I just heard my liver "yelp" in pain...and oh, was that my rib cracking?? She's a super strong one too. My Doctor keeps telling me to be prepared for a "mover and shaker". She says babies who display this much personality in the womb typically don't just turn it off when they're born. Hmm. Wonder what you'll be like, little one? We have 27 days until your due date. I am dying to see what you look like and so curious to see how you respond to the world. Having a second is wonderful because you have some knowledge under your belt, but the worry and unknowns are not really there. Don't get me wrong, I've never had to put two kids to bed each night, nor have I ever dealt with jealousy in siblings. I know all that stuff will be new, but the hospital part is not something I'm wondering about. I know when she'll be hungry or tired or need changing. I'll know already that I'm not going to be getting much sleep. It's nice this time. I feel less anxious and more excited. I'm like a veteran with a new recruit. She may be a rookie, but her Momma isn't. Isn't life cool?
