Sorry that it's been so long since my last post, but , even though last week was spring break, I have been super busy. I hope everyone is doing well.
Well, last Thursday, the 26th, we went to the doctor for our first weekly visit and were told that I am 50% effaced and 1/2 a centimeter dilated. Which, my brain perceives that as half way there and ONLY 9 1/2 centimeters to go! After my exam, when the doctor was telling me all of this, I realized that maybe I didn't want to know all that information. Maybe I was better off not knowing she could come any day now. You know.....what you don't know can't hurt you. It's a scary thing knowing that you are going to be responsible for another life, another human being life, in just 3 weeks (or less). After my doctor's appointment I was sitting on the couch watching TV, thinking to myself (and kind of freaking out) "I am never going to be able to do this AGAIN, EVER!" The girls at work assure me I can watch TV, just not without my "attachment". I know whatever fears I/we have will all go away when she is born. She is the one that is probably going to be thinking, "I wish this woman would leave me alone and let me sleep/eat/dirty my diaper in peace!" In all reality, we can't wait until she is here for us to hold in our arms. It's hard to believe, but extremely exciting at the same time, that our miracle, Landry Kate, will be arriving so soon.As I said in my first post, be patient I am new at this.....I am working on downloading pictures of my showers and hopefully I will have those posted soon. Thank you for all of your love and support.
You are going to be a great mom! I remember taking Lexie to school a few days before I had Carter and crying when I looked in the backseat and saw the carseat. I thought,"This is one of the last times I'll be driving without a baby." It is all worth it, and you will get to watch TV again. (Although it may be Mickey Mouse Clubhouse or some other show you swore you would never watch :)
