35 Weeks!!

Hello Sweet One,

You stayed put throughout last week and today marks 35 weeks! You are pretty much “in the clear” from all that we can tell and now if you come the chances of you needing to go to the NICU are extremely slim. Your dad and I are pretty happy parents :-)

I must admit though, I am torn right now. I know it would be best for you and for your dad for you to hold out two more weeks until tax day comes and goes, as your daddy is an accountant and will be back to normal business hours at that point. That day also marks 37 weeks, which is technically full term. But sweet one, momma is getting pretty tired of this sitting around stuff. Now don’t get me wrong, I am EXTREMELY grateful that our faithful Father in heaven has seen fit to keep you inside this long—EXTREMELY—but boy has sitting around gotten old.

I had my weekly doctor’s appointment yesterday and we did get the okay from the doctor to walk around some. I might have asked her if we could walk down the street to Starbucks and she might not have liked that idea, but now I can do things like get my own water and stand to take my shower if I feel up to it. This is a big deal kiddo ;-)

So we wait to meet you and boy are we eager!

Love you sweet one!

  1. WOO HOO! Did you hear that shout all the way from Indiana?! I am so happy for you guys to have made it to the magical 35 week mark… what a relief. And so glad you probably won’t need my NICU advice :)
