My body calmed down from this morning. I think dinner from last night bothered my bowels which bothered my uterus. Contractions were strong but sporadic. Midwife left long time ago but told me baby is really engaged (I could tell because I woke up with so much cervix pain)! So maybe no baby today after all. Contractions have fizzled out now.
Anyone going to miss being pregnant? I can't wait to meet my little guy but I'm definitely going to miss feeling him move around and everything...is that weird?
I will not miss it. Nothing will be better then seeing the creation my husband and I have made together. Once he is here I can't imagine thinking for second back to missing him in my belly. There will be no better bliss then having him outside of my belly to share with my DH
I'm so relieved that this is almost over. What a long, hard journey this has been emotionally, physically, mentally, socially, environmentally! It's effected every aspect of my life. I think I may miss the movement a little and being able to just have a giant belly and relax, not having to do much in general has been nice. But, I'm thrilled to be done! Just so scared now. I have a hard time with believing in myself. I'm such a strong woman in many ways but being a parent and taking care of a baby was never something I felt I would be good or tolerant at, so I never wanted it. Now I'm having to really face all these fears and try to get my head and heart into this 110% because that is how I do things but this will truly test me as a human. I'm so excited to meet my son and just pray I don't become a total crabby, crying, unpleasant mungrel!!!!!

Glad your feeling better!! I'm still in a lot of pain and super tired. Tried to do dishes, got 3/4 of the way done and was in too much pain so I got a popsicle and watched tv instead lol.

Oh I agree. There are just a couple things about it I will miss. I'm super excited to meet my little boy and so is my boyfriend.
"When my SIL had her first, she mentioned that she felt a little sad that she had to share her LO with everyone now. It wasn't just her and the baby moving around inside her. I get that. I have a feeling I'll miss the movements that were for me and just for me."
This is how I feel! I am SO excited but I will miss having him all to myself. 10 more days...and I need him to stay in there because we'll be getting ready up to the last minute! I can't wait to meet him and kiss that little face
