Our "due date" is just under a week away and the calls and emails have already started. I don't mind though - It's kinda fun knowing that most of my friends and family pause for at least a brief moment nearly every day to wonder if we've birthed the babe yet.
We had one of our weekly appointments yesterday. Everything checks out well. The babe continues to have a nice strong hearbeat and is growing. He/she is head down and lying along my left side (i.e. well-positioned for an easy birth) and has started to drop. I personally think the baby will arrive about a week late. I just hope he/she makes in September - I prefer September's sapphire birthstone to October's opal.
