Poll- is it "real" to you yet?

Its crazy, but I just can't picture myself with a baby. I know she's in there, b/c I feel her kicking but....

It has to be sooo sureal to DH to. He's not living through it (well aside from putting up with me)

When does reality kick in? What was the movie/TV show that said "We are adults now- when did this happen?" That's totally how I feel.

    Nope.  Not yet.  Even separating all of her little clothes yesterday didn't hit me as I'll have my own baby to put in those clothes soon.

    Im right there with you! I honestly don't think it will feel 'real' until I see her face and call her by her name.

    I put our bedding set on the crib last night and DH walked over, looked at it and said "OMG there's gonna be a little baby in there soon".  I went over and took another look and just envisioned reaching for a baby and it became real.  I can't believe this is happening.  I'm so excited, and terrified all at once!

    I don't know if it's real to me yet.  DH and I were at a party yesterday and there was a 3 month old and a 4 week old.  I kept on looking at them thinking...that will be us soon.  But I still don't know if it's officially hit me.  It's just such a huge life change that I can't even imagine what my life will be like afterwards because really, I have no idea.

    I feel like this changes everyday....sometimes it feels real--like when I see his nursery or fold his clothes. Other days I feel just fat lol.

    This! Although, FI called me from work today and asked what the date was (he knew, was just testing me) and said something along the lines of that he had a reality check today when he saw the date and realized we only really have a month left until DS is born. Yeah, still doesn't seem real to me at all... call it shock, denial, whatever, but I'm not ready lol.
