4 Weeks!!

Well One month left! It feels like it would never come but finally it's winding down. I'm not as sick as I used to be. It has now turned into truly just morning sickness, usually about 9 oclock I am feeling well enough to get out of bed and get ready for the day. We have everything we need for the baby and boxes continue to arrive from my mother (she's gone completely insane with this first grandchild).

I had to have my second visit with an OB this week. Even though I am going to a midwife and plan to deliver at a birthing center, by law I am required to see an OB twice during my pregnancy, why I have no idea I can abort my baby and have every right according to the government however choosing the way I deliver there are all kinds of restrictions! All he does is listen to the heartbeat, I mean he does less than my midwife! Oh well that's the way it goes. I believe I now start going to the midwife every week until I give birth. I am trying to talk this child into coming out Oct 27th I am due the 30th and I have to make it until the 26th because after that date Brent gets 4 weeks off instead of 3. So I am aiming for the 27th. My mother comes into town Nov 4th and she is hoping I hold out until then but I told her I am not holding on any longer than I have to! Technically I only have to make it until 3 weeks before my due date. My midwife will deliver me 3 weeks before or up to 2 weeks after so I have a 5 week time period for this child to get motivated to come out.

I am so eager for our baby to be here I can barely stand it! I want to know what the sex is and to be able to hold my baby, so I can't wait and I have a feeling these 4 weeks is going to go by very slowly!!!
