I truly did not think my body was capable of making it this far in a pregnancy based on my track record with Abby & Vivian. I'm SUPER excited to have hit 35 weeks!
I'm not sure what made the difference this time around, but I am going to give credit to the following:
- The service of others that allowed me to be true to my bed rest orders.
- The sweet prayers of my children and husband on behalf of August & I.
- Not working during this pregnancy.
AND...
- The weekly pregesterone shots administered lovingly by Aaron.
Even though I'm off bed rest, I'm still having to take it pretty easy. We had plans to go to dinner and a movie last night for a pre-anniversary celebration, since Aaron works on our anniversary. We managed to still make it to Macaroni Grill & Yogurtland, but the movie got nixed. Having contractions took away from the excitement of a movie. Instead we were home and in bed by 9:30p. LAME!
I'm not sure if the aches and pains I'm feeling our indications of his arrival being soon or if I'm just a big baby and this is what 35 weeks feels like. If the latter, these next 5 weeks (assuming I go full-term) are gonna be loooooong.

Lol...the last month tends to feel more like two months...enjoy :)
Yay! I was just thinking about you this morning wondering if you were still "with child" or if you have had him. I'm so excited that you have made it to 35 weeks! Hopefully you won't have to deal with NICU at all! That would be amazing!
