I just spent some time on the 3rd tri board for the first time this pregnancy, and OMG people are going into labor over there. And past dates. And all that wonderful amazing stuff that means you are having a baby. How are we that close already???????
Okay, freak out over. Go back to your normally scheduled bumping.

See, I feel so behind knowing there are ladies on this board at 27 weeks and I'm hanging out at 24.
Having said that, I was very surprised to see a friend on FB had her baby yesterday - she was due July 5! Just goes to show, it's going to happen sooner or later and all we can do is be as prepared as possible!
This is hysterical! I love how you worded it.
I've been lurking over there, and it is crazy to think that we're getting so close.

I hear ya! I'm not enjoying being due towards the end of the month =P We are close though..most of the 2nd tri board is sex reveals and 20 week a/s scan, which we are past. I lurk/post on the 3rd trimester board even though I have 2.5 weeks until I am there.

Is it strange that I'm excited to almost be in the 3rd tri? I'm so excited to be in double digits as of tomorrow. I've been lurking on their board for a bit and I don't feel like it scares me. If anything it makes me realize I'm not prepared when it comes to the nursery and all the baby supplies. We're really trying to wait until after my baby shower in July before buying much of anything. We've picked up a few outfits here and there, I've worked on some of the artwork for the nursery and emptied the nursery. It's driving me crazy that I can't start organizing and cleaning all the baby stuff when I'm ready to be prepared.
Only fears I have as of now, is getting my blood pressure under control so I don't have to go on bedrest. And when it comes to labor, I'm afraid I won't know when the right time to go to the hospital is. But I'm hoping birthing classes next month will clear that up.
I was not nervous with either of my DD's but am this time around. For some reason I feel like there is an urgency in getting things done in the nursery... I am a little scared of labor this time too. I hope I get to the I am ready for this baby to come out feeling because I am not sure I will really be ready before then. I think part of it is that I am concerned about my DD's and their reactions too. Too much to worry about.
