I hit 35 weeks today. That means in 35 days or less, Evan will make his arrival. Did you hear me? In 5 weeks or less, we're going to have a baby!! 90% of the time, that thought excites me, the other 10% of the time....it scares the crap out of me. Don't get me wrong, we're ready and want to meet our son, but there's just a little anxiety mixed in there. I think it is the not being in control thing that is causing the anxiety. If I knew when I was going to go into labor, I think I'd be just fine, but not knowing when or what labor feels like (yes, I know when it comes, I'll know) makes me a little nervous.
So just to add more to the mix, Christmas is in a week! I've had a hard time getting into the Christmas spirit this year. Honestly, I think its because I'm looking forward what lies after Christmas a little bit more this year. Plus I'm just plain exhausted. Lucky for me, I get two whole weeks (plus 2 days, thanks to a little snow) off to get in the spirit and finish getting things ready for Evan. Scott took next week too, so it will be nice to spend some QT together!
As far as how Evan's doing...he is fantastic. He gets weighed at our next appointment at 37 weeks, but he is head down and getting into position. He is probably pushing 6 pounds by now and at our latest ultrasound we found out that he has some hair on his head!! Amazing the things an ultrasound can tell you! I guess at this point, check back often for the latest updates! Our next appointment is Dec. 27th, so we'll update with the latest then!
Until then, have a Merry Christmas!
