The end of this pregnancy is near; we’re just not sure exactly when pregnancy will end and parenthood will begin. The doctor thinks it should happen anytime soon. Honestly, I’m kind of used to this “waiting” phase now. I think I’ll be pretty surprised when labor starts.
People have been asking me if I’m nervous, but I really don’t feel that way. Our desire is to have a natural, unmedicated childbirth, and I feel good about that. I’ve taken the time to prepare mentally, and I really believe God will provide the strength I need to make it through. Of course most labors aren’t exactly “textbook,” so we’ve also asked God to prepare us for any variations from our plan and to give us wisdom about any decisions we need to make.
I hope our next entry tells all about our new little baby, but we’ll see what happens. But for those of you who are curious, yes, I’m still hanging in there, feeling well and dancing.
