38 weeks :: T - 14 days
April 2008 we were going through IUI #2.
April 2009 we are expecting a baby.
My oh my how the times have changed. Today I am 38 weeks pregnant. Today I have only 14 more days until this baby is coming - or at least due. Seriously? When did we suddenly get down to only double digits in days remaining?
It was August 13, 2008 that we got the call we had been waiting for.
After 683 days...
After 1 year, 10 months, 13 days...
After 16,392 hours ...
After 983,520 minutes...
After 59,011,200 seconds ...
We were pregnant and now in just 2 short weeks, we will have a real baby to hold and love in our very arms. I have so many emotions flowing through me right now. I am excited and nervous and scared and worried and anxious and in shock. The fact that we will responsible for a little tiny person in 14 days (or less) and that he will depend solely on the two of us to feed, bathe, nurture, raise, and love him is so amazing to me. How will I know if I am a good mom? How will I know if I am doing the right thing? How will I know if the baby is happy? I know...in time, these things will come...After you hold the baby, you will know everything you didn't think you knew how to do before...Moms are naturals.... All I really know is that I love this tiny little person so much already and I haven't even met him/her yet.
My heart overfloweth.
6 nice things to say...:
You are so close, it's insane! Can I just say that the best way to describe it is that you are standing on the edge of a platform right now about the free fall jump off... that's exactly what it feels like. You'll do great, it's simply a matter of getting the chance to figure motherhood out and I have no doubt you'll pick it up just fine.
*hugs*
What a sweet post, I love it! WOW, 14 days or less! CRAZY!!! You will be a wonderful mother to peanut on the outside, just like you are a wonderful mother to Peanut on the inside. Enjoy these last few days!
Wow only 2 weeks or less left! Crazy! You will be a great mom for sure, don't stress. I can't wait to hear all about your little one's birthday!
Wow! Talk about being on the same wave length! LOL! You'll be awesome!
I am so happy for you. And trust me when I say that you are not the only one feeling all those emotions and having all those questions! I'm going through the same thing. It's so weird how reality slowly sets in. When we were TTC it wasn't scary at all, not well, it's a whole other story. You will do fine!
Not fair! Don't make me start crying for you this early in the morning...
