I'm due August 11th .
Everyone always says the last month/few weeks go by the slowest but to me they are just flying by !
It's like yesterday I was 32 weeks and now I'm 37w4d ! #-o :-SS

I'm so excited but overwhelmed with how fast this is going by , on Tuesday I'll be 38 weeks then after that it's pretty much a wrap!
I'm extremely excited to see and hold my baby boy and see what motherhood has to offer me On this journey. I'm well ready for him but another part of me just wants another month :((
Then again I really want to remember what it's like to not have a belly and not be so uncomfortable lol

Anyone else feel the same??

    For me, the last few weeks have trickled by. My one year old keeps me busy and I am cherishing every moment I have with just him. It's difficult to imagine I could love another so much but I know I will.

    I want my #2 to come but I want her to wait. It's not easy preparing a one year old for an entire life changing event. His world is about to go upside down and I hate that he will go through it at such a young age but what can ya do.

    He will be alright in the long run I know. 35w3d I think. I know once I hit 36 it will really start flying with the weekly doc visits. Hah, that's next week ;) And I so want to have a body that is not in constant discomfort again.

  • It's slow for me. I have 10 days to go but if this baby takes as long as the last then it will be twice as long (19 more days) and I hate thinking of it that way!

    My doc says she is willing to induce if I wan, if I show more progress in dilation, which we will discuss next week. Ideally I would like to have the baby before 41 weeks. Right now I am just hoping she is more impatient to come out on her own than her stubborn sister was.

    But I tell ya, big babies are pretty easy. My daughter already had excellent neck control when she came out too. Probably from all the bouncing I did on a yoga ball that last week while telecommuting.

    In some ways this pregnancy has gone by fast. By right now it is hard for me to get out and do stuff, and my husband is taking my daughter to the zoo, museums, a parade, etc. and I just have to stay home and miss it because I know I will be in too much pain if I walk that much. That's one sucky thing about summer babies. All the fun summer stuff you miss.
  • We're DD twins! :) I know that feel lol its speeding by and going so slow at the same time!

    The third trimester has gone by slower than the second, but still pretty fast for me. I'm being induced this week, so I think for me havingn an end in sight has made it go by fast. The first tri on the other hand went by as slow as molasses! I seriously was counting down the day from being a poppyseed to a pea etc.
  • So slow for me too. Working is making it drag becaus I'm exhausted and each work day seems longer than the last.

    This. Also, 38 weeks doesn't mean it's a *wrap* at all. Those last two weeks drag because you're just waiting for something to happen.
