Yep, we're into the counting down of days, (hopefully) not weeks until our son/daughter's birth. I was chatting to my Mum last night and she couldn't understand my rationale of "If this baby isn't out 8 days after it's due, I want a good explanation from my obstetrician" (The 8th day is her surgery day (ie in theatre etc)). What threw me the most was that by 39 weeks (where Bubs and I are now) both Jen and I were out into the big wide world! And she wonders why I am being insistant!!!
Today is also Ian's Birthday!!! He's not into the whole Birthday thing like me but I have seen him go a little red at the prospect, especially since he's getting roast lamb for dinner. I have "told" Bubs not to arrive today unless they want to share their birthday for life...
For those of you who are X-Box fans, here's a laugh - I have spent a lot of time in the X-Box suite and am actually getting good at Monopoly for X-Box. There are 2 AI's that I won't play with, and another one I am dubious about... sign of the times.

i understand completely - by this stage you really just want them OUT. it's not really that much better in terms of feeling crap - you are exhausted all the time even after they are born, but at least you get rid of the heartburn, frequent urination, beached whale feeling and you can sleep on your stomach again!!!! I will pray that the birth is soon!
Thank you Erika :) At least I have another person to hug when it's out. There is only so much joy you can get out of rubbing your tummy. It's movements have decreased (but that's okay) so I gather it is up for a bigger apartment! :)
