We’re definitely getting into the home stretch, the very near home stretch of the pregnancy. Today marks 39 weeks and with only a week until our due date it’s down to the wire!

Our doctor doesn’t like people to go over 41 weeks so if this guy doesn’t come on his own soon we’ll be getting induced. Am I happy about that? Hell no. I would definitely rather him come on his own because then it’ll give me more of a fighting chance to do it without an epidural. At the last appointment it showed I was only a centimeter dilated but my cervix was right there as he put it.  However, I do know that makes no difference whatsoever!

We did almost all the final cleaning in the room and tomorrow we’ll be doing the last load of laundry of his like the sheet and such to get it all clean and ready for this little guy to come and use it.

Jamie is getting super impatient waiting for Duncan to come. He asks about four or five times a day when I’m going to give him his kid! I’d love to! He’s going to come out when he’s good and ready though, or when they make him!

I do have to say though that I have had a fantastic pregnancy. It really couldn’t have gone better so far. The only real thing that was a problem was my blood pressure, however, it could have been high before. Since I didn’t go to the doctors before we’ll never know! Everything else has gone great. I’m afraid the labor will be horrible because everything in the pregnancy has gone so well.

I would like it to hurry up and come and we can meet him and come home so then the waiting is over and we can start being a little family! Which is freaking insane to think!

I started my “self made” maternity leave today. I’ll probably end up working though until he’s born after I get the major things done. There just isn’t much to do when I’m not working! I guess that’s something that sucks about working from home.

Have to clean off the bed and jump in the shower though. Maybe I’ll do some relaxing after that!
