Waiting

Sorry for the silence around here. I suspect some of you have been wondering if I’ve gone into labor or had a baby with the lack of posting! But no, we’re just waiting. And waiting.

I had so many ideas of end of the year posts and new year goal posts, but I have just been too preoccupied with this whole birth thing. I’ve had false labor all week, so I’ve been super antsy getting everything ready just-in-case. I’m not overdue yet, so it seems silly to be full of so much anticipation, but having contractions everyday will certainly do things to your mental and emotional state!

I think I’m finally (or at least momentarily) at peace with whatever happens. I’ve lost my nerves about labor. I’m as prepped as can be at home and with baby stuff. I’m mentally ready for labor today or three weeks from now. I’m thankful for a healthy pregnancy and don’t want to rush Mr. N until he’s ready. But just because I’m feeling patient at the moment doesn’t mean I won’t be ecstatic when the time comes. We are so ready for our little boy to be here!

And trust me, you’ll be some of the first to know when it happens. I promise I won’t hold out on you!
