37 Weeks Tomorrow

Yes, it’s true. Only 3 weeks to go (hopefully). My plan is to expect my baby to be 2-3 days early right now, but when I get within a week of my due-date to magically change my expectation to the baby being one week late. The plan being of course to avoid late-pregnancy impatience and I-can’t-take-one-more-day-of-this feelings. In case you were wondering, Judah was 3 days early, and Ezra was 2 days early. I’m hoping for Mother’s Day weekend when her birthday would hit either my grandmother’s birthday (5/11) or my mother-in-law’s birthday (5/10). I just had another appointment today, and everything looks good, yours truly being in excellent health, other than a slightly low platelet count – just like both other pregnancies. It’s never caused problems before, but they insist on sticking me every so often to make sure that I haven’t dropped below the acceptable line.\par

Oh, here’s a picture that was taken about 2 weeks ago at a baby shower. It’s a picture of all of the pregnant ladies at our church (including the baby-shower honoree, who was actually from out of town), who attended the shower. It’s staged in order of due date, with Ana on the right, (September) and me on the left (May). Actually, I believe there at least 3 other pregnant ladies at church (as of now, though not necessarily as of two weeks ago), but they weren’t there for the photo shoot. Blessings overflowing.\par
